May APFT Challenge Results

We’re down to three recruits still holding on, myself included.

Jack and Emily Phoenix managed two commendable scores of 174 and 196, respectively.  It wasn’t their best scores during the challenge, but they are still solid and committed.  Jack has been hunkered down, studying for his LSAT, so his time is limited.  The test is next week, and I hope his hard work pays off.

I once again wasn’t expecting a gain in my score.  I don’t remember the last time I’ve done strength work and for the 2 weeks following Back 2 the Beach, I only ran a few days.   Despite feeling like a lazy bum, I still managed to pull off a new PR of 245.  My goal of 242 has been met with a month to go!  Apparently all that yard work has been helping.

Sunday's crosstraining consisted of shoveling a 1/2 ton of cobblestone.

So thanks to Jack and Emily for sticking with me and good luck over the next 4 weeks!
