3/2/14 Sunday March 2, 2014 (interval running / pull ups / push ups)

Got going late Sunday afternoon in the absolute pouring rain.  Just terrible weather.  That is 3 or 4 weeks in a row of terrible weather for this weekend training.  Oh well, rain or shine - get shit done.  Ended up doing 4 intervals of the following:

Run 5 minutes, body weight SL DLs 5/5, run 5 minutes, 5 pull-ups on rings followed by 10 push-ups on an elevated bench.  40 minutes of running, 20/20 SL DLs, 20 pull ups and 40 push ups.

Only felt ok today to be honest.  The weather was quite awful.  I wanted to feel the glutes kick in more on the running and they just never seemed to oddly enough.  Legs did feel fine, put just didn't seem to have a lot of pep in the step.  Last couple of nights of sleep were frustratingly cut short by the kids waking up oddly early, probably just a change in sleep cycles as daylight savings time is around the corner.  I have a feeling tomorrow's training could be a challenge unless I can get some decent recovery for sleep tonight.  28kg press ladders and some heavy 1-arm swings, got a big morning in front of me and I want to be ready for it.
