WOD 041127

What a workout!
I'm actually proud of myself.
Here is the Rx:
Complete as many rounds as you can in 20 minutes of:
Run 400 meters
Deadlift 155 pounds, 21 reps

Well...
I did my warmup - one round of:
Samson stretch 15sec each side
OHS with body bar - 10 reps
Situp - 15reps SLOW
... then I went over to the pullup bar to try for an unassisted one. No-go, someone was there.
pullups with 20lbs help - 3 reps (almost all the way up)
dips with 20lbs - 5 reps (felt GOOD)
.
So, then I get to a tread mill and set it moving at 6.7 mph or so. I realized I could go MUCH faster, so I kept upping the speed until I felt like I was pulling my body forward. It was over 9mph! I kept that up for a while. I thought I would make it all the way to 0.25mi, but I started to get numb all over, it read 0.22mi. So I lowered it to 3mph and finished it out.
I did 21 reps of DLs at 60lbs. Then did it all again (6.5 mph for the run).
After the second set of DLs, I went to go back to the treadmill, and someone was on it.
So I had to walk all the way to the other side of the gym (not THAT far, but hurt time) to get an open Treadmill. I pushed it up to 6.6 and ran the whole way (2:22).
I looked at my watch and it was 19:00... I thought I wasn't going to finish it for sure.
I ran to the weights and did 21 reps as fast as I could - form be damned! when I finished (after hitting my knee with the weight), I looked at my watch - 19:56!!!

I'm pretty happy now!
