Saturday 10/2

I haven't ran in over 3 weeks because of the injury to my foot. With the Chicago Marathon 8 days away I figured that I better hit the road and test the foot out. I decided on an easy 7 mile loop leaving from our house. I felt good the whole time with no hint of the injury. Chicago Marathon here I come.

Saturday workouts:
7 mile run - I decided on not timing this run just went out for fun.

Off to CFWC for the WOD.

Today was a different format, no partners today they had planned two workouts for PR's our choice.

Tammy decided to beat her 400M time and she took 8 seconds off to come in at 1:09. She then decided to try her hand at Jackie. Jackie is 1000M Row, 50 35# Thusters, and 30 pull-ups. She was 12:09 RX. Great job honey.

I decided to better my front squat and hit a 5# PR at 155#. I then followed Randall's lead and did Grace for the first time. Grace is 30 Clean & Jerks @ 135#. I was 6:24, not as fast as I would have liked but not bad after the run and front squats.

Tammy, the boys and I left the gym to go get my new Tri bike. More on this later.
