Got stuck at a meeting until right before my gym closed. Managed to squeeze 45 minutes of intervals in on the treadmill. Back tomorrow for something more intense.
What's your workout today?

8 mile run with 4 miles at tempo pace.
I gotta get back into it. I stopped working out about a month ago because of things going on at work and that rolled right into the quake/tsunami/nuclear disaster.
I've gained 4lbs and feel like crap.
Tomorrow come hell or high water I'll be running even if it is slow, painful and only two miles.
Off for a cycle ride shortly, will do 20-30 hilly miles, when I get back I'll do a 10 1.5 minute rounds on the punch (and kick) bag, this afternoon I'll get 30 mins swimming in while the kids have a lesson. Shame my kettlebell hasn't arrived yet 
Went for a short run to warm up, then Oly lifting.

Arms and back at the gym.
Stupid tendinitis in my knee kept me from running.

I went for an 11 mile bike ride today. First ride of the season. I was pulling my daughter in a trailer for most of it and wow did that wipe me out. I had to have the SWMBO pull her for a few miles in the middle.
Nothing real heavy. Picked up my Kuwahara aluminum hybrid bike from the shop. A major overhaul and tuneup was what it was.
Had the mechanic slap on a pair of flat pedals for the first time. I figure it's time to go flat, as they say (I'm 63). If I get serious with the biking thing, I can always slap the clip-ins back on.
Had a nice easy ride about town, doing errands and shopping. Like I said, not heavy at all, but it felt good to get back in the saddle!

6 mile jog.
CrossFit games open competition week 3
Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 5 minutes of:
Squat clean (165lb / 75kg)
Jerk (165lb / 75kg)
3 rds + 1
I knew as soon as they announced this one I was in for an ugly 5 minutes. 165 is about my body weight and up until I warmed up for my heat I couldn't do a split jerk. I haven't got a nice one now but at least I can get under the bar now.
Oh well hopefully the next event will be in my favor so I can climb out of the hole in the standings this one put me in.

RKC kettlebell workout, followed by wind sprints.
Chest and Triceps this morning, probably get back to the gym after work for some cardio.
I just found this thread, and I see another crossfitter a few posts above me. Nice!
I ran 3 miles this morning, and at noon I have,
Kettlebell Fran

Thrusters 135#
Pullups
Kettlebell Swings 53#
So that should be nice. Ha.
Then I will take a small run later with the wife who is doing C25k

Squats (3R@90%) PM 355

Right knee still feels like there's a gel pack under the skin but the left t-band seems to have started to loosen up finally.
5 rounds of:
30 Double Unders
3 Turkish Getups (1.5 pood)
10 Lunges
8:28
Slower then I would have liked but seeing as I haven't done a turkish getup with anything more then a 1 pood since last year I'll take it.
