Wednesday Night At the Gym

The snow was falling lightly outside but the roads were in decent condition. However, I did not run outside. I decided to focus on strength training to give the running legs a break from the previous night's tempo run.

After arriving at the gym, I quickly changed and went up to the conditioning room. I started off with an 18 minute warmup on the elliptical. When that was done, I hit the weights and performed the following WOD, courtesy of Element Crossfit:
Hang Power Clean
3-3-3-3-3
then
25-20-15-10-5
Pendlay Rows
Pushups
The overall weight for the Hang Power Clean was 55lbs. For the Pendlay Rows, it was 65lbs. I am definitely feeling it today, that's for sure...

Lorene's friend, Paul, showed up just in time for the end of Lorene's shift. Since I was wrapping up my workout, they invited me to join them at the pub around the corner for a light snack and to listen to some live jazz music before heading home. I took them up on the offer and we hung out there for close to an hour before heading off.
