Nothing like an early morning "jog" in the park.
Wow! Now THAT was some good interval training. Kudos to CrossFit Endurance programming for that burner.
How’d you do on the run? Are you noticing any difference in your workout capacity? 2.5 miles is a pretty good chunk of pavement. You guys did really well.
How about a few tips on running…
1. Keep your shoulders relaxed. If your shoulders are tense or shrugged, your whole body will follow suit. It’s much easier to run when your body is relaxed.
2. Don’t clench your fists. You may notice yourself running with closed fists. Open your hands and loosen up.
3. Remember to breathe. Once you’re more comfortable with running you may want to try to match your breathing to your running stride, but in the beginning just try to remember to breathe. To start, try to remember to take deep breaths in through the nose and out through the mouth. You know, like Mr. Miyagi said.
Run 1600m. Rest 3 min. Run 1200. Rest 2 min., Run 800m. Rest 1 min. Run 400m. Then, 25 burpees to finish.
This is what I learned today………….I’m slow.
Actually, I knew that already but it was confirmed today.
Good stuff though!
Ooooh, I loved this one – probably because for once I didn’t come in last
Running by the lake in the cool morning air with the birds singing… does it get better than that? (actually, it does – chocolate? wine? but I digress)
I do have to say that I hate burpees less than I used to – I must be getting stronger
Yay, bootcamp! Can’t wait to see what you’ve got for us tomorrow, Carter.
Ladies, you all did great today. It’s awesome to witness the big jumps in strength and endurance.
Just want to plant a seed…I’d love to have all the first session bootcampers (& Carter of course) over for some good food and drinks. Does everyone like chicken wings? I know I do!
How about Thursday 5/27? I want to include the 10 AMers – Dina, Marcy and Ashley…am I missing anyone from that group?
