Endurance Cert.

Day 1 of the Running and Endurance Certification has been really great. We've learned alot and Brian and Carl are awesome instructors. You will surely hear more about this in the future this is a quick post before I go out and drink with the other Cert goers. And don't worry we will all be workingon our running technique in our future training. Yay!

Training Log
5/24/08

(am)
4x 400m runs (not timed, but videoed for technique breakdown)

(noon) lunchtime workout with about four others
225# back squat with a running clock, 1 rep first minute, 2 reps 2nd minute and so on....
9 mins completed, did not try for minute 10, 9 was struggle enough. Next closest guy failed during minute 8. Good workout for anyone who would want to try it during open gym at whatever weight is appropriate for you. By the way I did the math and that wound up being 45 back squats at 225# in 9 minutes. We will see how my body responds that workload.

(pm)
running technique drills/practice and then:
Helen
3 rounds
400m run
21 kb swings 53#
12 pullups
9:11 not a pr, but it was my second best time to 8:42 (maybe those squats had something to do with it, or the 4 400m runs in the morning, or I think it's because my pr time was done in Beverly where there is no incline in the road. I blame the incline and so can the rest of you Topsfielders ;)
It was a good long day, now like I said, off for some drinks at Bostonville Grill. Go C's!
