Today the 56 day Whole life challenge starts and already messing up had my Pre workout like I always do so guess that’s a point down but gonna stay on track from now on through the 56 days.
Doing a Crossfit bench mark at the beginning and end of the challenge. The workout Cindy will be done at the beginning ”today” and at the end of the whole life challenge to see the difference in my performance in the workout. Felt good on the workout today got 14rounds so I am shooting for 25rounds at the end of the challenge.

On September 11, 2001, 19 militants associated with the Islamic extremist group al-Qaeda hijacked four airliners and carried out suicide attacks against targets in the United States. Two of the planes were flown into the towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, a third plane hit the Pentagon just outside Washington, D.C., and the fourth plane crashed in a field in Pennsylvania. Often referred to as 9/11, the attacks resulted in extensive death and destruction, triggering major U.S. initiatives to combat terrorism and defining the presidency of George W. Bush. Over 3,000 people were killed during the attacks in New York City and Washington, D.C., including more than 400 police officers and firefighters.
