Well - today I woke up a bit too late to make it in to the 6:45 class, and seeing how being late to work was not an option, I opted to work out at my office.
Like the last time this happened, I stepped onto the treadmill determined to do a 5K (3.1 miles). Unlike last time, I actually succeeded! It helped that there was a TV in front of me so I could take my mind off of the running. I didn't get winded until the last half a mile or so, which was encouraging.
I finished in 26:16. I have no frame of reference as to how good or not this is, but I'm just glad I finished!
I then went and did a few strict chins. Tomorrow I'm going to be trying to hit 12 (kipping) chins in a row - wish me luck! Don't want to force my team into a funishment!

26:16 is an awesome 5K time! Congrats! 8:27 min mile pace.
That's a great time. I was all proud of myself for finishing a 5k last weekend in 33:54. Just under an 11 minute mile. And it about killed me. Gotta work on my cardio.
Good work!
Thanks guys!!
I remember when a 12min mile was my pace, quite a difference a year at Crossfit makes, eh?
Cara!! 26:16 is fabulous!! That smokes my 5K time. I think last time I tested my 5K I was around 28 minutes.
Awesome job for someone who "hates running"
