Personal Records!
I'll start with the beginning...
warm-up was
burgener's
10 each leg single arm barbell step ups (10lb)
10 wall balls 14lb
750m Row (just under 5 minutes, averaged just over 3min/500m -- it was just a warmup)
10 front squats (just the bar) First time being able to do them properly!!!
Skill of the Day - Push Presses
x5- 45 lb (bar only)
x5 - 55lb
x5 - 55lb
x5 - 55lb
x5- 60lb (PR)
Then the workout... It was a team effort. Each of us had to run 800m, then when we were ALL back we had to do a combined 300 air squats, then we had to each run 1 mile. For those of you who know me well, know that the furthest I've actually run -- without walking -- is 400m this year, I may have gone a touch further last year, but I really don't think so.
I DID IT!! I RAN (jogged) the ENTIRE 800m!!!
My team helped me out on the air squats they each did 115 and I did 70.
I walked most of the mile, but I did make efforts to run when I could. I was hurting, had stitches in my side, felt like I was going to puke, I'm still (3.5 hours later) not fully recovered -- of course the burpees didn't help either! I'm coughing -- and it hurts. This has to be the HARDEST workout I've EVER done.
My time... for the whole workout.. was 29:43.
I'm exhausted.
I did do my 36 required burpees -- and they were the hardest yet!!
Thank you everyone for the advice, I have a lot of thinking to do... and I have to do it quickly. Issue 2 might disappear after this week -- schedule changes. Eeek!
Melissa S., I'll be writing back to you as soon as I get a minute.
