Rain

The Emerald City is really living up to its reputation as a rainy place. Twenty-six consecutive days of rain so far! We are well on our way to breaking the all-time record of 33 consecutive days, set back in 1953.
There was a short break in the rain Sunday morning and a few of us managed to get an hour of ridge soaring on Whidbey Island before the rain returned and forced us to land. It was great to get in the air again but having to break down the glider in the rain really isn't too much fun.
We're really looking forward to some sunshine here in the upper left corner.
The rain hasn't been interfering with my workouts though. The new CrossFit Eastside space is really developing fast, with a steady stream of new toys coming into the gym. Last week they got the cargo net installed and it's already being incorporated into new, fun, inventive workouts.
The 6am workout today was 12 box jumps, 12 D-Ball slams, 12 push-jerks (85lbs), repeat for 20 minutes. I managed to complete 8 rounds.
