Run in Mud Obstacle Race Training

It's another hot day, but a chance to excel. When possible, run in a wooded trail with plenty of shade. I ran the Madison Greenway. I stayed along the fence line to take advantage of the shade. Once finished, I made my way to the playground for an American Ninja Warrior style workout.

Run 4.1 Miles
Hike .6 miles
Plank for 2 minutes. Add 10 spider man push ups for each minute
Side plank for 1 minute each side. Perform 10 side leg lifts and bring upper knee to chest 5 times each side.

Do monkey bar type workout American Ninja Style. Here are examples of what I was able to do:

 

 

Finally, cool down with a few laps in the pool.
