Hi Friends!
Well my Sunday morning plans began a little earlier this week when I roped my friend Ally into joining me for an Abs Class. Seemed innocent enough a few planks a couple sit ups etc no biggie… It is almost bikini season after all!
Surprise!!
Silly me its a partner WOD on Sunday with some ab oriented movements oh and spoiler alert 80 burpees… 
Needless to say it was a sweatfest but we crushed it! Finished in 29:14
Ally is the reason I started doing Crossfit over 1 year ago, so for me it’s a huge accomplishment to work with her now that I’m actually in decent shape (staying humble I promise!)…
In typical Burning the Candle fashion I also had errands to run after the workout you know like the supermarket and all those awesomely public places you love to go all sweaty and smelly 😁
Once home I enjoyed an awesome breakfast for 1, Protein!! They were offering free samples of Cliff Bars and a coupon so you know… 
But my day doesn’t stop there…
It’s beautiful here today! Sunny in the mid 60’s, a truly awesome Spring day! Determined to get out and enjoy the awesome weather I slapped on my brand new Beach Sticker and got on the road.
And I started walking…
And stumbled upon this gem…
I then decided to challenge myself…
At the very end of the Beach there’s a special place called Saquish. There’s a lighthouse out there, along with some summer homes and prime 🌴 beach sand 🌴. Generally you can only get out there with a 4×4 and I’ve just never had the chance. Having grown up in this area, it’s been one of those things on my bucket list, so I figured why not?!? I had all afternoon free and apparently was delirious from the awesome warm temps and sunshine 😏
Commence Operation Walk to Saquish (and back)
Well I made it! Approx 4.5 miles later…
And it was worth it!
On the way home I met a snowy owl!
I promise it’s not a seagull the pic doesn’t do it justice!
And about 9 miles later and with a big smile we had another mission accomplished!!
I’m super thankful that tomorrow is a rest day! Foam Rolling and Ice woowoo!
How did your missions go this weekend?
We were no joke and totally crushed this WOD. There were about 10-15 partners and only two finished. We were one of the two!! HUGE accomplishment – xoxox.. Let’s do it again!
