It seems like we have not run for awhile so I prepared myself to run as I was driving in today. This is good because I didn't go on a long run this past week. Last Monday I ran 3-4 miles at lunch but that has been the extend. I welcomed the WOD today when I saw it.
For time
50 abmat situps
then 5 rounds of:
8 pull ups
8 crossover pushup
run 800m
40 abmat situps
then 4 rounds of:
8 pull ups
8 crossover pushup
run 800m
30 abmat situps
then 3 rounds of:
8 pull ups
8 crossover pushup
A crossover pushup is when you do a pushup with one hand elevated on either a weight plate or kettlebell and at the top of the pushup crossover and place the other hand on the kettlebell. I had never done these before and liked them.
The first 50 Abmats were tough but good. I ended up doing 100 abmats yesterday for time so I was a little sore. I felt really good on the pullups and crossover pushups and ended my 5 rounds using the 88# kettlebell, which I guess is harder but I am not really sure. I headed out my first 800m and wanted to go at a good hard pace since we only had to do two of them. The 800m run felt great and I felt like I was really pushing my pace. I got back upstairs and started doing my 4 rounds of 8 pullups/8 crossover pushups and was into my second round when Jerry asked me if I did my 40 abmats. Thank god he asked me, another case of me being absent minded while I workout. I finished my abmats and the 2 remaining rounds and went back out for my run. Again I really felt good and pushed it knowing this was my last run. I was the first one in and started the last abmats and then the rounds. Ended up finishing at 23:30! I was flying today. Everything felt great, I did the pullups and crossover pushups unbroken, and the 800m were smooth. Great way to start the week.
