    My box doesn't do anything like this, but it looks like a pretty cool thing to do! I'll probably try some of these as a supplement to the WODS.

    Thanks for posting!

    On Thursday I did the rowing and only made it 4 rounds before my pace fell apart. Oooof! I did a 5th round just to be sure it wasn't a fluke. It sure wasn't.

    Today I ran 5k for my time trial (I haven't run more than that other than 1 time, so 5 miles would have been stupid and I was running a 5k race today anyway) and the snowy conditions slowed me down a bit.

    Overall, I would say my first week of CFE was pretty successful and quite the learning experience!
