Always Look Before You Leap

For the past 3 weeks, I've been using Wednesdays (more than the Black Belt, Sparring and regular practice days) to concentrate on my requirements.  With that in mind, I took a Cardio & Strength class today at the Harrisburg Y.  Nobody told me the instructor was a cross-fitter!  I knew I was in trouble when she started the class off with suicides on the basketball court.  I had been told we'd start off by jogging twice around the building.  Nope.  After 5 rounds of suicides, we got into the kettlebells, dumbbells, jumping rope, and burpees (you knew that was coming).  After 2-3 more weeks of this class, I should be in good shape for September 26th.
