Running With LeMire

Did the same workout as week on the treadmill but added a little bit more of a warm up and one more 200 making it 6 total. Workout was .75 mile warm-up, 6x200m at 10mph with 200m recovery at 6.5 mpg, then .75 mile (400's @ 7, 7.5, 8 mph) cool down making it a total of 3 miles.

Followed the workout with 2x10 knees to elbows and 2x10 Power cleans 65lbs.

Woke up this morning and did a Crossfit Workout:

- 1 mile warm up

WOD: 3 Round for Time

9 - box hand stand push-ups

12- KB swings 35lbs

15- squats (45lbs) -focused on full movements with lighter weights

18 - Abmats situps

Finished with stretching for 5 minutes with Jacob. I did not really time myself since I'm just starting back up but I tried to just move from one movement to the other with out to many breaks. The box hand stand push-ups were the most difficult when round 3 came along. I will be sore from this workout so I need to make sure I hydrate and stretch throughout the day.

The Insane Inflatable 5K was in town this weekend so Jacob (6), Jamie and I participated in the event with one of Jacob's friends and Mom. As we are driving up to the race a nice sized rain storm rolled through making everything slippery and very wet. The start of the race is done in 15 minute waves so the starting obstical was covered in mud and slick as can be after you just been standing in mud up over your shoes.  Jacob did not enjoy the first obstical and mud but from there her was a trooper and kept a pretty good runnning pace for half of the event. They said it was a 5K but it definitely felt longer than that to me. Did not wear a watch but it took us about 70-80 minutes to complete and we had to wait at 2 obstacles to get through the course. I would have to say I was very proud of my little guy for trying hard and having fun. He showed a lot of stamina and determination and probably could have ran more if we didn't have his friend that needed to walk a little more than I expected. Overall he had a great time and said right after it he would do another race!! Future runner in the making!
