Workout of the Day

It's been awhile since I posted a workout of the day. From this afternoon:

  • Tabata jump rope (20 seconds sprint, 10 seconds rest, repeat 8 times).
  • Rest one minute.
  • 500m sprint on the C2 rower. Finished in 1:34. My record is 1:31, so didn't feel too upset, given I don't usually do Tabatas first. Three seconds is an eternity though. Every second is precious in the 500. You'd think I'd be able to shave off 0:02 and get under 1:30. Not yet.
  • Waited for the blood roaring in my ears to subside, and for my legs to stop quivering. Five minutes, maybe?
  • Tabata NordicTrack: See above. Only managed six rounds. Hated myself. Pride is fleeting, shame endures.
  • Rest. Three minutes?
  • 100 sledgehammer swings for time (10 lb. sledge, striking tire). 3:15. Wanted to break 3 minutes. Alas. Weakling.

Could have been worse, but could have been much better. Still, it was hard, so it was good. I'll do some hard running tomorrow, pickup Sunday, then just hone a bit next week and get fresh for Regionals next weekend.

Can't. Wait.
