WOD 10/17/11

Was a super fun one. I was pretty much done after our warm up, Ian, the owner, lead us through it and it was long, lol. Got us nice and warm though...

WOD as follows:

800m run
20 swings
30 push ups

2 min rest

400m run
30 swings
20 push ups

1 min rest

200m run
50 swings
10 pushups

Rx'd weight for swings was the 35lb kettlebell, which I did. Those last 50 swings were pretty brutal though. Completed the WOD in 18:14.

Have to say though, I've never run 800m fresh, and I felt surprisingly good. Also, I did it in a little under 4 minutes, which makes me wonder what I could do a mile in? In middle school, the fastest mile I ever ran (and this is the fastest mile I ever ran, period. It only got slower from there, lol) was 9 minutes. I wonder now if I could do that time? I'm going to have to try it sometime. And this just makes me laugh inside because really? Me and running? We don't have a great relationship. Or at least we didn't used to. CrossFit has really changed that, and shown me that out of all the evil workouts I could inflict upon myself, running should be the least of my worries!
