Don’t Put It Down

We’ve got another challenge for you Wednesday, 100m of overhead walking lunges without putting down the plate, sandwiched between 800m runs.  This challenge is more mental than physical, and is completely doable.  Will yourself to hold on for the duration, knowing that once you begin lunging if the rubber hits the road (of goes below your knees for that matter) that it’s going to cost you 5 burpees.  That’s time and energy that could be better spent getting this WOD done fast as you can.

*Lunges are from the side of the building to Kilmarnock Street and back.
