5k: 22:59 (ran on treadmill with a .3% incline to cover the unnatural treadmill bounce. I think this is a PR for me and that doesn't even take into account that my legs are still recovering from Monday's bunny-hop smoke session. avg HR: 171 Peak: 187 This was interesting b/c I was tracking my HR and that allowed me to sustain a higher pace than what I thought I could do. Mentally, I was gassed, but physically (hr monitor) I could keep going.
22:13 in the Texas heat in the middle of the day. The last mile was not pretty at all. I forgot to time the bonus, but I my pullups were not good enough. Granted, I think I was seeing things after that run.
I can attest to the nutrition tip: I quit drinking soda about a month ago and have seen noticeable improvement in my strength/power. I think the combination of that as well as crossfit pushed me past the plateau I seemed to be on for the 3 or 4 months prior to quitting soda and starting crossfit.
Miss the morning crew. Walking the mountains of West Point for a workout is not as much fun. Hope to be back for Friday's workout but at a minimum I'll be there Monday.
I supplemented today and did 10 x 100m sprints with 90 seconds rest in between. I managed to not slow down from 1 to 10, but its hard to get an exact time by yourself. Lots of running today.

ReplyDelete18:19 on a treadmill with an incline of 2. I am not really sure what the 2 means, percent or degree...
ReplyDeleteI did not remember the bonus correctly and did squats for the pullups: 4:00
