This was an exceedingly hard wod, which is of course how it should be. Managed to run the whole way at a good pace, burps were slow. Runs at least 1.5miles. Wore the vest. TT=59:26 Ran very hard the last 3 minutes to get sub one hour, felt good.
Yes, this was hard, and I didn't even run. I did 2500M rows with the vest on, which did indeed slow me down. Rows took about 11:30+ each so I guess the burpees took a bit more than 21 minutes. TT 44:15. Jason did this RXd, he is a really good runner, was a collegiate soccer player. He came in from the run when I was 14 burpees in, and finished the burpees when I was at #134, AND he took a 30 second break removing a layer. So like I said before, he is the king of running and burpees. TT 44:15
PS - been cycling to/from work twice a week, so that's a good 4 hours a week usually.... trying to do CF 4 times a week, cycle two days a week, and one rest day.
Holly cow this was challenging. The second run took a while to hit a good pace. I had a goal to finish under 45, to do so I had to push pretty hard for the last quarter mile.
Jason, that time is just flat smoking it. Nice work. That is basically holding an 8 minute mile pace the whole way through both runs with a vest and flying through all those burpees. Amazing.

By the way, I have no illusions that rowing 2500M with a vest on is as difficult as running 2400M with a vest on!

ReplyDeleteJason went 44:30 RX'd
ReplyDeleteCorrection—that's Holy cow. No Holly's were involved.

ReplyDeleteJason routinely runs the 400's in 1:30... and it doesn't even bother him. It's wacky.
