Sunday morning was a blast. Despite the early morning groans from having to be at the gym at 7:30am yesterday, all 24 athletes did awesome! We couldn’t have made it work without the help of our awesome volunteers. A big thanks goes out to Heather, Jen T., Jen L, Anne Marie, Rick, Marcia, Vickie, Josh, and Charles for volunteering. Here is a movement recap of No Ordinary Race for those not in attendance…
8 minutes to find a 3RM power clean
Begin run (3 & 6 milers)
Obstacle 1 – 200 m backwards overhead medball toss (20/15)
Obstacle 2 – Slosh pipe lunges to cone + carry back
3 milers head back to gym
Obstacle 3 – 50lb bucket carry to cone and back
6 milers head back to gym
2 minutes max effort kettlebell swings upon arrival (53/35)
*Notes: The goal is to use more weight than last week. If you couldn’t complete your set, either try it again or drop weight. Make sure to hit absolute depth with every rep.
This past weekend, longtime member Fernando Arzola and teammates finished 1st in the 70.3 Ironman New Orleans. While not typically and endurance centered athlete, Nando has put in extra work in the pool and on the pavement over the past few months. The was his first team-style Ironman event and it will be a memorable one for him as he takes a gold medal back to Dallas. He is proof that we just don’t work out inside EDCF, we train for whatever may come at us outside EDCF.
