Murph - The Memorial Day Challenge

Yesterday was the annual Memorial Day Murph Challenge at CrossFit. I am sore. Very sore. Murph is as follows:
Run 1 mile
100 pull ups
200 push ups
300 squats
Run 1 mile

Yeah, I did a half Murph. Although, I didn't think the 1/2 mile run was a half mile...so I drove it...my car says its 7/10 of a mile! That's about 320 meters extra for each run! I hate running so this really sucked! But, it also explained why my time was worse than a month ago and I felt like I was doing better. Last month, I did it in 38:18...yesterday I did it in 39:45. I have a feeling that had this been a true 800m run, my time could have easily been 36 minutes. Oh well. We had fun. Jonathan won the grand prize...he did the whole thing in a 20 pound vest in 47 minutes. The best out of 3 guys who dared to do it in a weighted vest.

Did I mention that I am sore today?
