Dear CrossFit, Does Sledding Count As A WOD?

I wanted to count this is a WOD, b/c, after all, what do you call walking up a steep hill covered in thigh-deep snow a couple of dozen times, including a few times pulling a four year old? But, it’s sledding, not a WOD, so I’ll call it sledding. I don’t think I could have done this last year. Alright, I’m certain I couldn’t have done this last year. So, I guess all those step ups and walking lunges and squats have had some impact. After sledding, I watched while the kids slurped down a couple gallons of hot chocolate, which, unfortunately, isn’t paleo. Not wanting to feel completely excluded, I put a chocolate protein shake in the microwave. Note to self, do not put chocolate protein shakes in the microwave… Somehow after sledding and hot chocolate, the kids wanted to go out in the barn and play horse and then 21 and then half court basketball. I beat them at horse and 21, but decided to do deadlifts instead of playing hoops (I heard orthopedic surgeon Dr. Peter Brooks raising his eyebrows when the basketball started bouncing) Got in some nice deadlifts with my Christmas present plates. While I wonder what tomorrow’s WOD will be, I suspect it will include more hill repeats, rolling extremely heavy snow balls to make a snowman, and probably some crazy races with the kids. Maybe it isn’t CrossFit, but doing CrossFit has made it possible and even enjoyable. Thanks CrossFit.
