Sadat - Cardio Relays - I Smell a Cheater

Last couple of days have left me sore and tired.

Monday, i did not participate for the entire class as i had to leave early for a meeting. But i did get a 2 mile run in where i miraculously came back first. We then did some lunges and kettle bell lifts before i had to leave. Not too strenuous, but at least i got the run in.

Tuesday, we split between Blake and Dictator Michelle. Started off with Michelle this time, and we did the same exercises we did in week two with running up and down the back stairs with weights, lunges, indian run, squat presses, and repeat. I am happy to say i did not have to walk back up the steps this time. I still am not doing it easily, but at least i didnt stop my jog. We went back to lift with Blake. He had us do bench, back rows, chest flys, and back flys all for a minute each. I didnt think lifting 25lb dumbells would hurt as much as they did, but, they did. I was exhausted after each lift and we only had a 10 sec break in between. Once we finished one rotation we had to get in 50 jumping jacks and 5 berpies in 10 secs. Second time around hurt more, and we had to get in 10 berpies in 20 secs. finished right on the dot.

Wednesday, I am completely sore in my chesticle area after yesterdays lifts. I was happy that we were only doing cardio. But man, did we do some cardio. We split into teams of 3 and had to each finish 4 cardio stations. A 1 mile treadmill run at incline 6.5. That was no joke. Never run on an incline, its just not smart. and it hurts, and i dont like hills. finished just over 10 mins while sprinting at the end. Elliptical: 1 mile at resistance 11 and incline 11. This was also hard, it didnt feel like the numbers were going fast enough, but i finished just under 10 minutes. Row 1600 Meters. Not as bad as i thought, this was probably the easiest of the three. Finished in about 8 mins. Last was the bike for 2.5 miles. I went all out as fast as i could the entire time. I finished in 8.25. When i finished i started running down the stairs, but was blocked by Caitlin the soon to be winner of the relay. i feel jipped. But she has it coming the next time we do this.
