Tuesday

up with the alarm this am. got a good nights sleep and felt pretty ok this am.
checked out the mainsite and saw something a little different. originally thought i might skip it but then decided just to modify it to make it work. adapt and overcome?!

treadmill warm up
run 2 miles
8:30 pace for the first 1.5 then up and 7:15ish for the last 400m.
felt pretty good.

strength warm up
3 rounds
10 pull ups
10 push ups
10 squats
used 3 different grips on the pullups. just to change it up a bit.
other wise all good. feeling it in the shoulders from yesterday

WOD
5 rounds for time
50 yard overhead carry
30 kettlebell thrusters
50 yard farmers carry 25r/25l

80# bar for overhead carry
60# bar for the farmers carry
17.5lb kettlebells for the thrusters

this was actually a lot of fun. mostly for the weird looks i got walking with a barbell over my head on the sprint track! lol
should have gone a little heavier. know better for next time. i was hard don't get me wrong, juts think i could have gone up 20# per bar.
did the last farmers walk with the 80# bar just to see.
12-13 minutes on the wall clock
had to break the last 2 sets of thrusters up as my shoulders were on fire!!
all else as rx'd

after this had a few minutes to kill so decided to try a little barefoot running.
lost the sneaks and did some 40m or so runs on the turf field. kept bringing the speed up. felt good actually. good forefoot strike and no heel bang.
moved over to the sprint track and did a bunch more. little hard to slow down from a sprint in socks!!
definitely begs the question of running in the vibrams. i think it is a real possibility for type and distance that i'm doing. don't know if i would run a half marathon in them but probably in a pair of kinvara's or free's.
hmmmm
need to get a pair.

stretched a little and called it a day.

peace!
