I had trouble deciding what to do this morning. I liked the idea of sleeping in and doing the PSE workout at home. However, getting to see my 5:30am friends at Solcana was also a great idea. The PSE workout had Pendlay Rows which I’ve not done and pullups which I can’t do at home. The Solcana workout had running and deadlifts both of which I’d done already this week. Tough choices…

Ultimately, I ended up going to Solcana. It was also owner/coach Hannah’s last class coaching before going on maternity leave which was a nice bonus! After an extended warmup we did a 5 round metcon! Each round was

400m

30 situps

15 deadlifts 135 (I could maybe have done the next heavier weight, but that was a lot of deadlifts!)

With 1 minute of rest before the next round.

I split the situps and deadlifts into 3 sets for each round. The last round I did less situps per set but did the deadlifts unbroken.

I finished in 24:17. Each round was pretty close time wise. These are my approximate guesses:

4:05

4:10

4:07

4:02

3:50

It was a good workout!! I never regret going to Solcana, except maybe tomorrow when I have to do intervals again!!
