I participated in another CrossFit today. The website posted the following for the WOD (workout of the day), "Meet at the Box at 9:00. The free WOD will be hosted at GetBuiltChattanoogaCrossFit. We are leaving from the "box" by 9:10. Bring a friend and your running shoes. This is going to be fun for all ages! Total running will be under 3 miles." So I knew what I was getting into, though I'm not a big fan of running. But with the Olympics being my motivation, I figured I could handle it. The workout consisted of running across Market Street Bridge, running up and down the stairway at the Aquarium twice, running up the hill on 1st Street and power walking all the way across the Walnut Street bridge. From there, we ran to Coolidge Park, performed 100 crunches, ran beneath the Market Street Bridge to do 100 squats and then ran up "the boob" - an extremely steep, man-made hill. The last part of this leg was running backwards up the last hill and finishing in Renaissance Park. A quick game of tag with most of the group ended the WOD. The whole thing lasted about 30 minutes and I think it felt better than the last one I did - but we'll see how I feel tomorrow!
