WOD

Puppies:
Three rounds
Sub 400's
Sub 20 pull ups (beginner or assisted okay)

Total time - 19:58

Good news! I went for the run - and made it. I started out thinking: "I'll try for 150 or 200 before I switch to the bike." Then at 200 I felt no pain so I kept going, ready to stop and being very careful - like running on hot pavement ( reminded me of my childhood.) I wore no shoes, was on the treadmill, and made the 400 for each of the three rounds. Also, I made the first 20 pullups legit. The next 10 were legit. After that I mixed legit with jumping and, by the last round, was using the band. Ready for the rest day! WHEW!

Glad your getting healthy again with the running. I've been trying the POSE running, whatever I can get out of it without buying something.

I think ChiRunning was a worthy purchase for me. It reads a lot like Total Immersion and Starting Strength in that the cues you are given make very good sense.

15:00 minutes on the rower. Rolled it outside in the sun. 85 degrees. Felt great. Logged 101 calories - my rower doesn't count distance :( I am starting to feel refreshed and ready to jump back into the WODs. I almost did yesterday's - but made myself wait. I'll get in after the next rest day. Oh, I still feel the swim!

AMRAP in 10 minutes 100m sprint (25m out n back x2) 10 situps 10 supermans 5 rds + 50m Did this in the school basket ball/ volleyball gym. I was able to be barefoot on the wooden court. Very comfy. I had a little twinge in my back from carrying this front-loaded fat vest but it's way better than it has been.

AMRAP in 10:00 5 DL @ 215lbs 5 Burpees 5 Squat Cleans @ 105lbs 5 Burpees Total - 4 rounds huffing and puffing. Thanks to Charles for giving me this one on FaceBook. His suggested weights were 300 on the DLs and 185 on the cleans. I knew better than to try that! HA! Warmed up with OHS and pigeons. The OHS stuff with the bar and not PVC - time to be a big boy!
