CrossFit Elements, session one, after reviewing technical points of new movements (olympic bar deadlifts, various presses and squats, kipping pullups, and the really lovely 24" box jumps and jumping pullups).
Was moderately gassed after just one round, struggling on the second. Was convinced could not get through the third, and waved off Mike, my good natured physical terrorist, at its end.
Took the option to finish up the 4th and final round after a bit of recovery breathing (elbows on knees, imitating a furnace bellows). 16 minutes and 14 interminable seconds.
The iPhone 3G camera doesn't pick it up, but the skin around my eyes is a nice shade of resolving bruise yellow-green.C-Y-A-N-O-S-I-S. As in "oxygen debt."
Going for time...all the difference in the world.
Good times.
