So much for the 4.5 mi birthday run in a weight vest. Didn't make it in to CFOT to borrow one, and God decided that shoveling was to be the WOD of the day. Soooo much fun. I haven't had snow like this since I graduated from Notre Dame 22 years ago. Having it on my birthday makes it just sooo sweet.
So simple estimates with hubby are that a shovel full of snow is about 10# and that we could conservatively estimate that we move 1 shovelful a minute when we took into account rests, moving around, and having to walk the shovel to the snow mountain. So 4 hrs of shoveling over two days or 240 reps or 2400#.
Yep... moved a ton of snow and had a blast doing it. And after more than a year at CFOT, I'm lifting it right, so my back doesn't hurt... although my glutes really want a day off. Plus, I think my "ergonomically' designed bent shovel is more harm than good. Pretty much like using a curling bar to strict press.
Now maybe tomorrow I can get to that run... or whatever Jerry has in store for me and the weight vest. I dread the chipper that was supposed to be the hopper....
