***********************************************************

This was a good workout! I used the first run as a warm-up although I did run the whole time - just slowly! Ha! Here are my schematics -

Run 1 - 16:14 Round 1 - 8:48

Round 2 - 9:34

Round 3 - 9:27

Run 2 - 15:52 I had to push that last run to try to get under 60:00! At about 200 meters to go I was convinced I wasn't going to make it because I had to walk a couple times as my hip was really hurting. BUT, at about 50 to 100 meters to go I had :45 so I just went for it and had :04 seconds to spare! It was a great way to finish! The burpees seemed the toughest on this workout. I wasn't sure if it was because my vest is loose and was shifting all over the place or if it's just because they are burpees! LOL! The lunges were also tough but I think that was just because I was wearing my cushy running shoes. Anyway it was great and I was grateful to honor Jamie.
