Each round ended with 2 minutes of planks, mountain climbers, or plank jacks in 30 sec increments.

Once finished with that round, pax shifted right to a higher weight. The guy at the end with the 40 lb. Kettlebell moved back down to the bottom of the ladder at 15 lbs.

We completed four full rounds.

Mary was built in and also at the end. A grand total of 14 minutes of core work today!

being positive and overcoming adversity:I pulled my hamstring again. Thankfully it wasn’t really bad and it should only be a minor setback. I’m on my cardio journey to get back to running halves and maybe even full marathons. I’m really having a hard time giving it up. Although I have embraced the Clydesdale lifestyle, knowing my paces will be slower than they used to be, I don’t ever think I will want to give up running completely.
