It’s go time guys! One week till my marathon. AHH!!! I am pretty nervous and excited at the same time. 26.2 miles is a long time to be running. I know I can do it, I just hope that I can perform how I know my body can. This week will be filled with lots of resting and taking it easy. I will maybe include 2 easy and short runs, but that is about it. I will also be eating lots of healthy carbs and protein. I want to feel my best come Sunday!
Last week felt like the old me working out. Lots of CrossFit workouts, a longish run, and a couple rest days. The rest days were definitely needed as I was so sore from my CrossFit workouts. It felt so good being back in there on a regular basis!

I finished with 112 burpees using 55, 75, and 85#. My burpee breakdown was 42, 31, and 39. You should definitely start light and work up to a moderately heavy weight. I was planning on using 95# for my last round, but miscalculated the weight on my bar and realized it after the WOD. Oh well.
