Nothing remarkable, other than I’ve done a lot of running lately.
Wendler was good. My last set (of Press) I did 5 @ 62.5#
Rounding out the evening with some lacrosse ball mobility.
Allow me to diverge from the topic of WODs for a moment. At the cafeteria earlier today I noticed that one of the rotating food stations was Pasta Ya Gotcha. It brought me back to the days of RedWest, working on MS Campus in Redmond. The cafeteria there had this pasta station permanently. This was back in the day when I actually ate pasta for lunch. When I really didn’t give a damn what I ate at any time. Starbucks Maple Oat Scone and Tall Mocha for breakfast? Sure! Texas Tijuana Taco Penne for lunch? You betcha! Chicken Parmesan for dinner? Why not? This is the description, from the web site, of the Penne (wanted to steal a pic but they had none): Our #1 selling sauce! A secret blend of our Southwestern spiced ground chicken breast in a creamy sauce. Topped with cheddar cheese, green onion and fresh tomatoes.
It was just like eating a taco but better, because there was pasta! I ate that stuff more than I’d like to admit. I blame my old workmates for introducing me to that crap. Man, that stuff was GOOD. But you always ended up feeling so dang bad. Shocking how long it took for me to connect those dots.
Today (and nearly everyday) I had a salad. It is the same salad, the big difference today was that i chose romaine over spring mix. The guy ahead of me in the pay line did get the Taco Penne though. Lucky bastard.
For the record, the web site claims the Taco Penne “only” has 540 calories. I say “only” because it looks more like 800.
