Sylamore 50K

Sorry I haven’t been updating.  Just in case anyone is out there keeping up, I smoked the Sylamore 50K this weekend! Finished in 6:03 for a 39 Minute PR!!  Last years time was 6:42!!  Awesomesauce!  Me on the right in the picture with my running buddy, Shawn.

Big Day at the Gym!

Lots of measurable results.  I’m trying to cut some weight this month, so I got my BF measured.  Here are the results weighing in at 181lbs at 36 Years Old:

I was pretty pleased with this as the lowest I’ve ever been was 13% and I just knew I was going to be WAY higher than 14.  Anyway, the awesome day at the gym consisted of 3 big PR’s as we did Crossfit Football Totals.  Here were my results:

That’s:

So that’s a total of 1070 lbs.  Pretty stoked about that!!

Thursday!

Pretty good workout today at Desoto Crossfit! 

Then Find 1 Rep Max Power Clean:  165 lbs. For me

Then 5 Rounds:

Cashed out with 1 500 Meter Row at 1:42 (Not bad, but not a PR)  Only had time for one row not three like the board says.  All in all good workout.

Tuesday!

Two WODs this morning. The first wasn’t too bad.  Tabata Alternate:

138 Reps and a mix of Legit/Kipping HSPUs.  Felt good to knock those full range handstand pushups out finally.

Next up, right in my wheelhouse!

Felt like I killed it.  Anything with running and heavy deads is just for me! :)
