Deck of Cards

Repeated the Deck of Cards workout from 3/15.

This time around, I had a goal. To get under 20 minutes for the whole deck. That's 8min, 9sec less than the first time around.

As I mentally prepared myself for the pain of the coming workout, all I could think about were things like getting Ds in big games, pushing through that hell point to help my D team score, and other thoughts of domination.

The other thing was that I had a goal and I like to reach my goals. What happened with this one? Well...

I FUCKING DID IT!

I turned in a 19:27!! I think I could have broken 19 if I had dialed in just a little bit more, but I didn't. All I know is that it is a phenomenal feeling to put out a goal for yourself, put in the work, and reach it. I love it.

This was a great workout. It let me know that my feelings about my fitness and levels of preparation are not just in my head. I am actually in better shape than I have been. I can't wait for Chicago, Sectionals, Regionals and Nationals. I'm unbelievably excited right now. We're coming up on the best part of the year in terms of weather and ultimate and nearly everything else...
