Nice progress. I was beginning to think that today's Spartan Run had scared everyone away. :)

Maybe more Greco than Spartan:

I ran 7 before and Andrea walked 2, then:

Troy did: 13 sets of 10reps each of BRs, NPUs, Crunchs
Sol and I did 15 sets of 10 reps of the same.

Andrea did 26 sets of 10 of BRs and 13 sets of 10 of Crunches

Hey, found this blog recently and it's along the same lines as what I was already designing for my goals. You're doing the work for me but it's much appreciated.

Tried the advanced version of 5 pullups, 20 pushups, 25 abs, and the 1/4 mile run: 4 rounds in 18:45

The rain slowed me down. I'll aim for 5 next time around.

Good work everyone.
