This morning's two mile run was good...it sucked, but was good. We pushed ourselves hard, and found that, yes, cardio was slightly an issue; however, the larger issue was leg strength/endurance/lactic acid. I admit, I was hurting in my chest slightly, as should be the case with any good cardio, but that will get better. We are going to mix things up a bit with some long distance and speed training in addition to the medium distance runs to try and push the boundaries on what our legs/bodies and cardio systems can sustain.
Jess: ~12:53
Wally: 12:48
Crossfit WOD (Helen):
3 rounds of 400m run + 1.5/1 pood kettle ball swing (21 reps) + 12 pullups
Wally: As rx @ 13:59
Jess: As rx @ 17:41...did run and kettleball as prescribed...pullups for the first time were done with proper form and completion through utilization of assist bands...
We are getting there and definitely see an increase in strength...it will be nice to see where we are in a couple of months.
