I'm embarrased to say that I did the run at 30:20. Since the only physical activity I've ever been decent at has been running, I was hoping to have a more impressive time. However, here are my attempts at excuses: 1. Picked a hilly course 2. I've never been a sprinter; I like long-distance at a comfortable pace 3. 1st time taking both kiddos for a run (besides my warm-up jogs to D's house)
All in all, though, it felt great to go for a run again.
Don't beat youself up. Perhaps it has to do with how much muscle gain you have had. Have you ever seen a body builder be a great runner? Not too often. You are doing great michelle.
...
We are waiting for the Dr to give the ok for Dennis to come home. His fever finally broke so we may get lucky. Though he is still unable to really eat anything.
If he gets home today, I may come do the 5K row after I get the kiddos in bed.
TM if you need anything... or help with anything feel free to give me a call or a message on here. I hope Dennis starts feeling better.
Michelle, great job on the run! I did the row and for good reason, I would have needed a sun dial to time myself on a 5K :) You are making great gains in a short amount of time and as you become more comfortable with the lifts you will keep improving! Again, Great Job!
Gals, You're all so encouraging! TM, sorry to hear about Dennis...how long has he been in the hospital? Jess, I'm so glad you're around so D has someone at her level to push her. Yeah!
Ok I did ALT cause I needed a god muscle fatigue workout.
TIME:11:43
65lbs CLEANS dipe with feet elevated, whereas i used to do them with my feet on the floor.
Did some PU work and feel like im almost there. Just trying to figure out how to strenghten my back more to do PU and like you said D i think ill start rowing more for that.
JESS! next time your there youll have to put me threw your ab workout.
Hey Nat great job on your Liz today! I usually go in the mornings around 9-930 and I have started doing the strength workouts in the afternoon so if you are there around that time then we can do some abs... if not feel free to tackle it on your own sometime... I listed it below

30 Knee Raises 30 KB Swings 30 Leg Raises 30 Rocky Sit Ups 30 Crunches 30 Flutter Kicks (4 Count) 30 Scissor Kicks (4 Count) 30 Russian Twist 30 Toe Touches 30 Sec Side Plank (Both Sides) 30 KB Deadlifts

Michelle I'm jealous that you even enjoy running let alone able to do it pushing a stroller and up hills!
TM we miss you here... hope Dennis is doing better.
After seeing the Marines post a 6 round max on the Cindy on 'roids WOD I had to give it a go.
20min max rounds- 15 pull up, 30 push up & 45 squats
7 rounds + 15 pull ups & 17 push ups
Tim!! I have been wondering how you are doing. I'm glad to see you are still kicking butt on the wods. Tell the family hello for me.
