I ran the St. Paddy’s Day 5K Run too. I set a new PR by almost a minute and half!!
My previous best was last year at the Firecracker run when I was running three times a week with a Fleet Feet training group. I did it in 30:54.
That was before CrossFit… for the last 6 months I haven’t ran any other than CF. This stuff is awesome!
F/57/153
I ran the St. Paddy’s Day 5K Run too.
Time: 39:06
(the last time a did a 5K was October – I beat that time by almost 5 minutes…and I really wasn’t that tired today. I agree w/Jeff– Crossfit is awsome! Trainer Breck is AWESOME to…as I too have only been doing Crossfit -and only 3 days a week.
Then came to the gym and did WOD:
“Helen”
3 rounds
400 meter run
21 Kettle bell (20#)
12 Jumping pull ups
Previous best snatch was only 45lbs. In the past, I could not figure out how to put all the movement together. Today, I really understood “pull yourself under the bar aggressively”. I am far from good at it, but I “get it” now. Will be practicing this movement more now that I understand it. I can’t drop weights at my gym so, I will be slow to increase weight, as I need to avoid lifts where I fail.
Today I also did Back Squats
5×95, 5×105, 5×115, 5×125, 5×135, 10×95
1@45lb
1@65lb
1@75lb
1@85lb
1@95lb
1@105lb
1@115lb. (new PR by 20lbs.)
realized later that I did power snatches, and I think the WOD called for full snatches. oh well.
had a great time at the race with everybody!
