Cross Fit Endurance, Workouts To Kick You Into Gear!


So you are feeling a little burnt out from the traditional triathlon training. Well change it up, you have read the article in Triathlete Magazine and you are wondering can it work. Look at it this way, you have to do core workouts and you have to do your normal training, why not mix. You can only get stronger and if Sprints are your distance, Cross Fit Endurance is a perfect fit. You will push yourself every single workout.

Have Fun!

Chose ONE of The Following Sports:

All sports do: 30:20 x 12 rounds, 30 seconds on 20 seconds off, all out efforts!

TOUGH MUDDER 17 DAYS AWAY


Are you ready, break the norm and try something different, push yourself. Even if you fail at least you would have done one of the toughest challenge this year.

The website says:
"Tough Mudder is not your average lame-ass mud run or spirit-crushing ‘endurance’ road race. It’s Ironman meets Burning Man, and it is coming to a city near you. Our 7-12 mile obstacle courses are designed by British Special Forces to test all around strength, stamina, mental grit, and camaraderie. Forget finish times. Simply completing a Tough Mudder is a badge of honor. All Tough Mudder sponsorship proceeds go to the Wounded Warrior Project.
WARNING: A Tough Mudder is 3-4 times longer and much tougher than a typical mud run such as Warrior Dash. Only those in reasonable physical condition should enter."

From the visuals and information, you can judge it for yourself. If anything just do it, if you can.

Remember you are a Triathlete!
