Chicago 2012: Training Week 1 of 24 Recap

Really great first week of training! That’s a lot of green days. (Green = did as planned; Yellow = less than planned; Red = missed workout.)
Spending the first few weeks figuring out scheduling and how to make it all happen. There will be lots of 5 a.m. alarms. As the temps outside heat up, I’ll probably try and do all the runs in the morning and CF at lunch. I anticipate going to less and less CF as the training progresses, but I’ll try and stick to 2-3 days a week. It’s more of a time crunch issue than an ability issue.
I didn’t take my rest day on Friday, so I opted to skip CF today. My shoulder is still sore from presses and everything on the WOD today was presses (push presses and wall balls, plus body weight rows from a bar). Letting it rest up today and tomorrow.
Plan for Week 2:

Monday is “speedwork” — I’m doing the C25k intervals as fast running + jogging recovery.
Since I have both CF and a 7M run on Saturday, I’ll probably try and do the run on Friday. Then I can make either the Sat or Sun CF optional.
