Jump in Head First

Due to a surprising turn of events, and a reduced entry fee, I will actually be running the Spartan Race this year!  It takes place on June 16th which gives me a little less than two months to get into tip top shape.  I will need to focus on cross-training as unlike your typical 5k this race is a combination of workout drills, obstacles, and trail running.  Fortunately the push for this race overlaps with this years Crown Challenge and I can train for both simultaneously to increase endurance and over all strength.  The beauty is, I found this great site with a list of Military Workouts I'm going to work my way through over the next few week.     

The workout today is as follows:

1 mile run
1/4th mile running 
10 burpees
1/4th mile running
20 push ups
1/4th mile running
20 squats with 10 lbs weights in each hand
1/4th mile running
10 push up rows
1 mile run
Core work out
Stretching
