Run in Mud Obstacle Race Training-2/8/16

T

oday is a hard run with burpees, squats and pull ups. The run was meant to be easy, however, there was a lot of competition on the running train. Throngs of runners run three abreast on a narrow trail, so I try to out do them, since they don't make room for others lol. I ran 5 miles with 20 burpees each mile (10 burpees every 1/2 mile) followed by the pushups, squats and pull ups. The burpees are equivalent to push ups and squats (minus jump effort). In total, this exercise will result in 5 mile run, 100 pull ups, 200 push ups, and 300 squats. Here's how it went down.

Run 5 miles with 20 burpees each mile.

20 pushups and 20 air squats x 5

10 pull ups and 10 air squats x 10

Vary hand positions with the pushups and grip positions with the pull ups.
