Yeah! Day 100!

Okay, it's been 100 days of training and I'm still not on American Ninja Warrior? What a rip!
I guess the show is pretty hard though, so I'll keep pushing through until they have to put me on.

Started Day 100 with some lunchtime Hill Sprints. They are so ridiculously brutal, but definitely getting easier. I'm really keen to get this down to 3 times a week of pure hardcore hillage.

Tonight was Ninja Class and so because there are comps this weekend in San Diego and next weekend in Idaho, the coach set out an impossibly hard set of courses... and I struggled. Like, big time struggled. It made me realise just how much work I still have to do.

I still need much tougher hands.. and one big thing I failed on... the slack line. I HAVE A SLACK LINE!

I haven't used mine for ages... so of course that's going to become a daily exercise now until I get okayish. My balance overall needs a lot of work. I'm definitely further than I was months ago, so that's great... but there are still so many gaps in my repertoire.

The more advanced dudes, which includes me, had to get up the 14'6" Warped Wall with a foot on the base of the wall... I've never even attempted this before... it seemed impossible... no one got it... and it kinda ruined me from doing the Warped Wall the normal way too... it totally got in my head.

I'm going to have to shake that loose and get back on the Crushin' it Train before Boise.

So... in closing... Day 100 super shook me up... which is good. I've got 10 days to get as awesome as I can be... and a truckload of motivation to power through.

I do know that I am mostly motivated by fear... both for good (it gets me moving) and bad (it stops me from smashing obstacles I really shouldn't have a problem with). I've got to learn to control this better....
