“Look me in the eye.
It’s ok if you’re scared,
So am I.
But we’re scared for different reasons.
I’m scared of what I won’t become.
And you’re scared of what I could become.
Look at me.
I won’t let myself end where I started.
I won’t let myself finish where I began.
I know what is within me, even if you can’t see it yet.
Look me in the eyes.
I have something more important than courage.
I have patience.
I will become what I know I am.”
**I have been debating if I was going to continue posting. The vile coming out of SAMA towards woman is ugly, and is not something I want any part of. One thing I’ve learned this year is that sitting back and doing nothing in the face of ugliness is equally as bad as being a part of it. However, I got to thinking…in the face of that vile, there is an even increased need for the presence of powerful women to contradict it. For me, being a public expression of that is the one thing I can think of that I can do to do my part. Even if it’s for the five people who follow this. Do I support anyone who chooses not to post? Absolutely, 100%.
So going on record: I’m not a dumb bitch. Nor am I a stupid slut. But I am a powerful woman. FIN.

Looking good, Lula. Sorry about all the BS coming out of SAMA. Not all guys are rampaging douchebags. But it seems most of the ones who are post there.

**I couldn’t quite find my rhythm with the pulls today, but I’m planning on hitting them hard on Saturday so I stuck with the prescribed reps and called it a day.
**Racks were taken for the squats so I just cleaned it and made them some fronties.
**Ugh. Kroc rows suck.
Then: Took the hill sprints outside! The sun was shining, waves were crashing and it was at least a few degrees above freezing. It was the most glorious 30 minutes of hell I’ve had on that hill in a while.
