Hill workout today. This is in respect to the Warrior Dash Alabama event coming up November 2, 2013. I know that area of Alabama and it has lots of hills. I did the St. Clair Scramble in March and they had an obstacle on top of every hill. I was ready then and I want to be ready now. So here we go.
Start out with 5 burpees. Then, run a mile through the hilliest parts of your neighborhood (or find a hilly place). Take time at one of the hills to do a repeat event. Run up and down the hill five times and do five burpees at the top each time. Run home and do 5 more burpees.
In my case, up and down each time equated to about .25 miles. In the end the run turned out to be a 5k.
Rope climb x 2
Monkey bars x 2
50 sit ups
50 flutter kicks
50 crunches
50 leg spreaders
20 supine leg lifts
20 supine leg raises (legs at 90 degrees and lift lower back off the floor)
20 bicycles
Stretch
I'm running obstacle races hard. I thank God for my health and the US Army for 22 years of physical training. After retiring 10 years ago, I'm still trying to stay in shape. Run in Mud Obstacle Race Training keeps me motivated.
