So here's a little update on how the Urbanathlon went. I finished that beast up on Saturday. I did better then I thought I was going to. I pretty much kept the same pace the whole time, or at least it felt like that. If I took a rest it would only be for a few seconds after an obstacle. At about mile 3 my feet both went completely numb, I had the same problem when I did the warrior dash and I'm sure it will happen again when I do Tough Mudder next year. That was somewhat bothersome but not a real problem and sensation returned around mile 5. At around mile 6 my knee started to really hurt, but I convinced myself to keep going or it would hurt worse. I finished the Race in 2:00:58. About one minute slower then my goal (well the real goal was just to finish, and I did). It was a ton of fun and a great challenge.
After that I went defcon 5 and studied my ass off for my cell and molecular biology block test for medical school. Hopefully I passed.
Ok, back to Crossfit. Monday was the gyms rest day so I decided it would be fun to do a gymnastics WOD using just the rings. Did muscle ups, V outs, front levers (with band), back levers (w/ band), ring push ups, ring planche push ups, and an iron cross progression.
I took Tuesday off to go to a trampolining place. Got to do some flips into a foam pit which was as fun as it sounds. Decided to take the day off from crossfit since my knee was still sore from urbanathlon and trampolining didn't seem to make it better.
Today I did the full workout. For strength we did max Clean. I was able to work up to #180 which is my body weight, maybe a few lbs more so I was stoked about that. I did it as a power clean so I guess that technically means I can do more if my form gets better. Then for the Met-con WOD it was 60 seconds of double unders with 20 seconds rest for 8 rounds. I did shitty. It was tabata scoring and I ended up with 8. I hate double unders. Hopefully I get them soon.
Alright back to studying.
