One tough day....

Okay - so I may be considered stupid and over-did it today but hey - why not right?!?!?!

This morning was a 30K run. I haven't hit the distance yet for ATB and knew I had to do it before the race. I would have liked to have run the route but yesterday's rain and wind storm kept me inside. Good thing I don't have a goal of making it to Boston so I was able to turn over and go back to sleep. :)

So - this morning I went out all along Northshore and up Valley Inn Road and back again. Hills both ways - a tough route and I was able to pick it up the last 2K. Woo Hoo. 30K done and in the books. I have the tight hams to prove it.

So - after that I checked out the CrossFit web-site to see what the WOD is today. Turns out today they had CBC going in to do a story on CrossFit connection. Jason wanted to do a workout the had LOTS of weights and different movement in it.

OUr fundamentals class had a slight variation but it was ultimately the same one....

The workout was going to do me in.....400M run and then a round of leg blasters were part of it. I had just run 30K and started to tighten up nicely. Any running was going to hurt. Even if it was ONLY 400M.

Well- if I wasn't almost dead before I was that much closer afterwards but still pretty impressed I was able to get the workout done. :)


Thank goodness tomorrow is a day off!!
