6.14.13- Rowing for Jerks

When I looked at the website to find out the workout of the day, I almost started crying. As I've said before, I despise running. I hate it so goddamn much. And today was supposed to be a heavy running day. Here was the workout most people did:

-Run 400 meters

- Do a maximum weight clean and jerk.

- Repeat, as much as possible, for 20 minutes. 

Yuck and yuck. 

Luckily, I'm a pretty smooth talker, so I was able to do rowing instead of running.* Instead of running for 400 meters, I'd have to row for 500, but that is a small price to pay to get out of moving this large mass of man around in the humidity. So, after a few minutes of rowing, I'd put 125 pounds above my head. I did that 7 times in the 20 minutes, which means I put up 875 pounds of weight and rowed 1.75 nautical miles. Boom!

*this was accomplished with the killer line "can I just row instead?" To which Rob said, "yeah, bro."
