Let's try this again. Run one mile for time.
8:23!!!!
For people who run, or are my stepchildren, this still seems quite slow. For me, it's the single most exciting thing I've accomplished since I started this whole Crossfit thing. Differences from the failure yesterday: I learned from yesterday's failure not to sprint at the beginning, I focused on taking more steps not longer strides (thanks Pose Running), and I had enough energy to kick it a bit the last two blocks. (Karen, I listened to your mix again. The first line couldn't be more fitting: 'reluctantly crouched at the starting line...')
The original plan for today's workout was to do this then come home and do some strength stuff, but I'm so pleased with myself I'm taking the rest of the night off.

Hooray! I think that is fast! Good work.
Excellent work Mel!
Concur with those 400's. They'll suck but a mile will seem like nothing once you get good at them.
I've been considering some 400's myself.
I think I'm going to work them in to the HealthPlus workouts, since I'll be close to the track.
