4x800 rest as needed
3:21.8, 3:05.8, 3:07ish, 2:58.3
I didn't want to take a long time so I only rested 3 min between runs. I was a sprinter in high school and a hurdler in college so to me a 1:1 rest ratio is short. Three minutes rest is an eternity for endurance guys. This workout was tougher than I thought it would be. I was hoping I could just run it relaxed and be able to run sub 3:00s. Well, it took four tries to break 3:00 and I was definitely feeling the effort after. I'm hoping that by the next time I run this workout my times will be hovering around the 2:30 mark. I'll probably give myself a lot of rest between efforts next time. Its hard to do but I love to sell out on runs like that.

Shoulder Press 5-5-5-5-5

My forearms are killing me! They were aching before the presses, but now there throbbing. I thought I was going light, but my arms are still wiped out from wednesday's muscle-ups. My strength (especially upper body) is currently my greatest weakness, so my programming includes a "strength bias". I want to be strong enough to do any WOD that they throw at us as rx'd.
