1.000.000.000.001.00

1 mile run, 2 mile walk in Merrells (would have done barefoot, but the track was too hot...imagine that)

WOD

Max rounds in 15 minutes of:

10 Pull-ups (I jumped from the box...it's getting easier and will try w/out it next week)

10 Back squat at Bodyweight or Front Squat at 75% BW (I did 65# for back squat)

50 Sit-ups

I did 3 full rounds and the pull-ups & squats of a 4th round in 15 mins

Challenge

5 minute plank on gymnastic rings (that are near the floor) for as much time as possible during the 5 min.  This schooled me.....any arm strength that I had is now completely gone!

I'm gonna need a larger waterbottle...
