My Crossfit experience @Crossfit Fortress: Monday 5-7-12 Wow! tough day!

Well we finally did the Down and Dirty Mud run yesterday! It was a fantastic time and I really am so happy I did it. On top of that I was able to do it with the greatest group of people!! Crossfit Fortress and Crossfit Kingdom. That is a great family right there. I will post another separate blog about the run later but there will be a peek at the end.

Warm up:

Jump rope 3 min
5 push ups
10 BSU
15 air squats
5 push ups
10 BSU
15 air squats
10 pvc pass throughs
10 skin the cat right and left
warm up lifts for the WOD

WOD:

400 meter run
15 clean & jerk (55lbs)

5 rounds

My time was 25 min 18 seconds

I felt like it was a heat wave in there. After coming in from the 400 meter run each time It felt like my face was on fire and like I was overheated. It took a sec to readjust and continue. After the 3rd round, it was just mechanical. Pushing myself just to get thru and done. Saying just 2 more, just one more. It was extreme today. Running in the light rain and the humid gym, Sweating so much. Exhaustion!!!

Moving on like I say here is a peek at some pics from The Down and Dirty Mud run yesterday. I will be doing a separate blog and a video I am working on. I hope to get it done some time this week maybe this weekend. We had a really great group as you can see. So much fun. We must be crazy ....
