Matt and I competed anyway that Saturday in a partner competition... my last one for a long time. We took 4th which is great and disappointing at the same time. Being 4th out of 30 teams is fantastic, but the fact that one bad workout, and most likely me being sick the week of the competition, knocked us off the podium after being so close is defeating. Oh well... onto the OPEN!
Matt and I have cleaned up out eating even more lately because of the competing and the CrossFit open coming up... lunches have been salads with high protein for 3 weeks:
Week 1- romaine with grilled chicken and asparagus
Week 2- romaine/baby greens with taco meat, avocado and salsa
Week 3- romaine with chopped lunch meat and hard boiled egg (Chef's salad)
All salads were eaten with balsamic vinegar and olive oil
