New Normal: Pink Horses and Glitter Will Kill Your Stupid Sad Face.
http://erikajeanne.blogspot.com/2011/02/pink-horses-and-glitter-will-kill-your.html
Everything is painful at first. Friday, February 11, 2011. Pink Horses and Glitter Will Kill Your Stupid Sad Face. A couple of days ago, a good friend and I were discussing how annoying self love talk and positive thinking talk has been for us lately. We are so wonderfully in tune to the positive side of things, when we actually WANT to be in a funk it takes work to remain there. Let me repeat this: IT TAKES US WORK TO BE SAD FACE. Revolutionary thought, eh? February 11, 2011 at 11:11 AM. CLOTHE THYSELF ...

New Normal: February 2010
http://erikajeanne.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Everything is painful at first. Saturday, February 27, 2010. My grandfather had this amazing way of saying no, while making you believe he said yes. I remember him telling me once that "yes is one of the most powerful words a person can say to another, and to themselves." He was right. Check out this blog post The Power of Yes: A Simple Way to Get More Out of Life. The author makes solid points about how to begin. Let's wash our lives in a big bucket of Yes and see where it gets us, shall we? Opportuniti...

New Normal: If it looks good on paper
http://erikajeanne.blogspot.com/2009/01/if-it-looks-good-on-paper.html
Everything is painful at first. Tuesday, January 6, 2009. If it looks good on paper. It will probably end up being a total bitch to deal with. 1 I have to get faster on those runs. The runs need to be easy and breezy instead of painful and long. This will allow me to spend more time on the other, more demanding movements, which I tend to like more anyway. 3 Feel good about upping the weight, even if it means sacrificing your time. I should never, ever feel bad about this. I am thankful that I reg...The C...

New Normal: April 2010
http://erikajeanne.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Everything is painful at first. Monday, April 19, 2010. Reel it back in, Sweet Pea. Guess who had another alarm clock debacle and missed another class? You know when you trip on something, metaphorically of course, could be a problem at work, or a misstep in your finances, it tends to perpetuate itself until you devote a large amount of attention to correcting it? I've forgotten the most critical reason why I do the wackadoodle things I do with my training, with my diet, with my determination:. Which lea...

New Normal: Dear Pastry Case, your insides don't play nice with my insides.
http://erikajeanne.blogspot.com/2011/01/dear-pastry-case-your-insides-dont-play.html
Everything is painful at first. Tuesday, January 11, 2011. Dear Pastry Case, your insides don't play nice with my insides. There was no plan, no strategy. All I had was this nagging desire to be different. Frankly, that's all a person really needs. But, this time I did it with 95# hang cleans and unassisted pull ups. I've never felt so good about a DNF. I had three goals that day and attaining one would leave me feeling successful:. Complete 2 full rounds. Positive thinking the entire time. Congratulatio...

New Normal: #105 and an Anniversary.
http://erikajeanne.blogspot.com/2011/01/105-and-anniversary.html
Everything is painful at first. Friday, January 21, 2011. 105 and an Anniversary. Over a year ago, waaaay back in October 2010, I pushed 100# over my head. This morning, after all this time being completely inconsistent with my training and recovering from a white-hot sinus/lung infection, I pushed 105#. Three years ago to the day I could not do more than 3 push ups on my knees without stopping and it took me 30 minutes to make it through half (less than, actually) of the standard warm up.
