This was a tough one. I almost emailed Max to ask him if he mistakenly combined two workouts. Anyway, the plan called for a 90 minute run with two 5ks for time with 300 squats in between each one.
The first 5k was pretty slow since it always takes the legs a while to loosen up and I clocked in at 22:30. I then knocked out 300 squats and started the second 5k. I started out like a cheetah but then my legs turned to lead and I came back to reality although I moved at a good clip and actually went faster to my amazement than the first 5k for a time of 21:22. For the hell of it and because I had to catch my breath I did another 50 squats and then headed home realizing I still had to run for another 45+ minutes. I kind of just zoned out and the HR was just under 160 the whole way home. After a hard 105 minute ride this morning I was pleased to have knocked this out. I'm not looking to how the legs will feel tomorrow.
