Happy Independence Day!!!

Started the day with the 5k Freedom Run in Bloomington.... My body is very sore from saturdays run and last weeks crossfit. I started out slow the first mile and then picked it up into a 7:00 pace. Total time was approximately 25 min. I didnt run with my garmin, but the had a finish clock. I didnt pay very close attention to it since I started about 30 seconds after the gun went off. My 13 yr old was having wardrobe malfuctions!! We hurried to crossfit after the race!!

CrossFit:

"Annie"
50-40-30-20-10
sit-ups
double unders

Since I can't do double unders yet, I had to do 3x the reps with the jump rope... 150-120-90-60-30. We skipped the strength part of "good mornings" because my back and gluts are very sore!

I was still a little sore from last week, and tired from staying up so late. I also ate really crappy last night too!! I was surprised by my times today. The 200's and 400's were faster than normal. I tried to keep the 400's closer to a 1:30 and I bounced around a little on my times. The protocal allows for a 3-5 sec deviation on the intervals... so I did okay!
