Nikon D40 Practice day. 1

I shot a bunch of pictures to learn about our D40.

There’s a slideshow right here.

Ireland 0

Laura and I are heading to Ireland for 2 and a bit weeks, so we picked up one of them-there fancy-pants Nikon D40 digitmatal cameras.

I expect to touch a computer as little as possible. But maybe pics will appear on my Flickr page.

Oh and the iPhone is out in the States today. It’s inevitable that I’ll get on when they show up in Canada. The great thing is all the plans offered by AT&T/Apple have unlimited data. Data access is where you get screwed in Canada. If the same plans are available here, then my main argument against the iPhone is gone, other than the price of the device itself of course. :)

CrossFit: Day 15 of Bootcamp 2 0

OMG….

Do as many KB swings as you can in a minute, let that be x. I did 35.

Then your rep count for all the exercises is 60 - x, or 25 for me.

- x Double Unders or 5x normal skipping
- x Atomic Situps
- x KB High Pulls
- x Ball Slam (16lbs)
- x DB Thrusters (15lbs)
- x Jumping Pullups
- x Burpees
- x KB swings

10:24, I think. I’ll have to check my book.

CrossFit: Day 7 of Bootcamp 2 0

30 - 20 - 10 reps of:
- Wall Ball (14lbs)
- Sumo Dead Lift High Pull (65lbs)

5:36

I’m tired from the tournament on the weekend plus the game last night. The Sumo lifts were a lot harder than they should have been.

In the sumo deadlift link, he uses the phrase “for all intents and purposes.” Up until about age 18 I thought it was “for all intensive purposes.”

CrossFit: Day 6 of Bootcamp 2 0

Benchmark workout day… after 7 games of Ultimate on the weekend. Dammit.

Complete as many rounds as possible in 20 minutes:
- 5 Burpees
- 10 Situps
- 15 Kettlebell Swings

I did 10 rounds + 5 BPs + 10 Situps. Laura was 3 swings shy of 9 rounds.

Not bad all things considered.
