Today was my first triple workout. I really don't have a choice. I need to try and Swim/Bike/Run at least 3 times per week. After plugging that into my calendar I realized that there are just not enough days in the week to do each event three times. So I'm going to be doing run/swim or bike/run or bike/swim plus continue to do my four crossfit workouts a week. The good news is I'll be doing crossfit endurance workouts during the week so it's not like I'm going to be out running for 3 hours a day. Am I?
Here is what happened today......
CFE - 2 minutes on/1 minute off x 6: 1) 5:49 pace .34 miles, 2) 5:46 pace .35 miles, 3) 5:57 pace .34 miles, 4) 5:50 pace .34 miles, 5) 7:34 pace .26 miles, 6) 6:33 pace .31 miles
That workout was pretty straight forward. The reason for the slow down on events 5 and 6 was that I got a cramp in my right calf. It hurt like hell and still does.
Crossfit workout: 12 minute AMRAP of 8 box jumps, 8 roman chair situps, 8 reverse burpees. Rest 2 minutes then: 12 minute AMRAP of 8 lateral jumps, 8 floor sweeps, 8 get ups.
I did 8 rounds on the first AMRAP and 5 rounds on the second AMRAP. The second AMRAP was much harder than the first.
Swim team workout: 400m freestyle, 300m pull only (no legs), 200m kick board, then 4 x 50 swim drills, 4 x 50 pulling only, 4 x 50 freestyle, then 2 x 300m freestyle (slow, medium, fast).
That was my day and now I'm ready for bed. I'm looking forward to more days like today because there will be many like it.
Have a great day.
