Today was a busy workout day. When I got to work today I had no plans of running since I just wanted to do crossfit and swim. But when a friend at work offered me a chance to run I just couldn't say no. I didn't have my running shoes but I did have my Teva sandals. Not the kind with two straps but the ones that look like regular shoes with a bunch of holes in them. My friend was running 7 miles but I really didn't need or want to go that far. So I turned around after 2 miles. Once on my own I did what I always do, I picked up the pace. I ended up running 4.1 miles in 31 minutes, which is around 7:30 per mile. The sandals were great and very comfy too.
When I finished the run I went to the our crossfit gym at work and did today's workout. Only I did the "light" version, basically I did half of the workout. Here is what I did: 5 rounds of 135 lb deadlift, 10 reps; pushups, 15 reps. I'm sure I'll feel that in my lower back tomorrow.
I then headed home around 4pm to meet up with some friends at chick's beach for an open water swim. However, no body showed up but me and I really didn't want to do an open water swim without somebody watching out for me. So I headed to the local rec center and ended up doing 2500 meters. Here is the workout: warmup 400m free then 4x400m (20s RI), 16x25m (20s RI, odds fast for 12.5m/easy for 12.5m, evens fast), 100m cooldown. Total time was 41:47, which is 1:40 per 100m. If I haven't said it enough I'm really starting to enjoy swimming.
Have a good day!
