Day Seven: So What's Next?

I busted out with a perfect set of 100 jumps in a row first thing this morning. Swung the rope, jumped, and just kept going. It was great. Of course the other sets were nowhere near perfect, but it felt fantastic to have even one. I find that I need to go kind of quickly. If I start slowing down, there's too much time between jumps to start worrying about the next one, and suddenly the cord is stuck between my toes again. (I jump barefoot.)

The best part about today? This was the last day of agonizing over half portions (lunch was probably a little too big; dinner was definitely a little too small). Bring on the prescriptive amounts! And the tougher workouts! I am ready.

  1. Hmm...jumping barefoot! I hadn't ever considered that. Might have to give that a try sometime. Nice job on the 100!
