I woke up this morning and slammed my alarm off...rowing 500 meters for a personal record (PR) does not excite me. As I was lying there I was thinking that work really wasn't sounding like much fun either.
10 minutes passed...of course I got up...went to Crossfit...did the stupid 500 m row for time. Did I set a PR? No. Did I tie my PR? Maybe...probably not. The point is that I would NEVER choose to go row a 500 meter row for time...not exciting...not fun....probably because I STINK at it.
Did I go to work? Of course I did. Did I help a patient today? Better believe it. Got a hug out of the deal too. Two in fact..from two different patients.
Was it an "A" day at Crossfit? Not really because I didn't set a PR. But it was an "A" day for what I learned after my row....that my technique was very inefficient, that I lacked power, that I was having an incredibly fast cadence. Yeah...it stinks I didn't get a PR..but...it rocks that I have something to work on.
Was it an "A" day at work. Yep.
Sometimes you have to "just do it" - - - row a 500 meter row for time...go to work...
Can't win em' all, but, you can keep learning..keep helping...keep growing.
