I dig the challenge...
Let's keep these up.
Mine came, essentially, like this...
I was playing "Zombies! RUN!" in the local, huge, I mean big-big, like I've run in a ton of times already and haven't seen all of it big, cemetery...
At the top of one hill I sprint to is a huge "touchdown" Jesus statue.
I sprinted to him - one mile... Stopped in front of him - 12 burpees.
Then I saw my deer - they're always good sports but I don't think they like me chasing them...
Mile 2 - stop in field, 12 burpees.
Back to Jesus and 12 more.
Back to the apartment I'm currently staying in - 5K.
(And some lengthy, ranting, paragraphs of gratitude and explanation are better left to the "select all, delete" key.)
Anyway - feeling good.0 -
damn i dont know if i'll be able to lift my arms after my shoulder work out tonight0

Normal Monday Routine:
40 minute run/walk
45 minutes lifting
Spartan WOD + Monday Challenge:
50 jumping jacks- then the neighbors pounded on the wall
4.5 minute jump rope
Burpees- I got to like 9 before they pounded again.
No pull up bar at home, so I just did 3 sets of military push ups- 5/5/4
5 minute stretch
Things I learned today:
Jumping jacks in the living room are not neighbor friendly
Even burpees will piss off the neighbor's dog
Tomorrow will be a good burn, as I will have TWO of Leata's challenges (Tuesday and redo Monday) and a WOD to do.

If Runner #5 weren't broke as a joke right now - he'd be all over a chicken salad that's for certain.0 -
