Run In Mud Obstacle Race Training-12/19/13

I didn't have time to workout the way I had planned, so I had to improvise. I had forgotten about taking my daughters to gymnastics. Once I got home, changed, and out the door for my run, my wife reminded me that I only had about 35 minutes before I had to leave.

Hey, life intervenes and you find a compromise. I figured I had enough time to do a 5k for a personal record, so I went at it. Once I got back , I drove my daughters to gymnastics and finished the rest of the workout behind the gym.

Run 5k for record
Do a burpee pyramid. Try to go from 1 burpee to 10, then from 10 back to 1.
Do 10 situps or alternative ab workout in between each burpee set.

I did mine a little different, I did more burpees early.

10 burpees
10 situps
10 burpees
10 situps
9 burpees
10 situps
9 burpees
10 situp
Then all the way down to one.

It took a while and it was brutal, but like I was doing something worthwhile. This will give you 112 burpees and 200 sit ups.

I'd love to hear your take on this.
