Athlete Notes:
Push the pace on those runs and then try to go unbroken on the lunges. Chip away at those handstand push-ups, ideally we’re looking for those to be finished in 3 minutes or less, so scale the reps down a little bit if you need to. Get back on those lunges and it’s time to go unbroken again, then hammer that last 800 meter run. After your rest everything is cut in half so let’s push hard and see how well you can hold on. The 400’s should be faster than mile pace, lunges unbroken, and hopefully the handstand push-ups are completed in 2-3 sets or unbroken if you’re great on your hands. Chip away and knock out this workout before a rest day tomorrow.
