I've always wanted to finish an ironman and this year I've finally had the opportunity to train for one. Unfortunately going to an official ironman races is a huge pain in the ass. The timing doesn't work out (I need to do this before restarting clinic rotations in my residency, i.e. July 2016), they would take tons of time in travel (I've got a 14 month old at home) and they are expensive ($1300 registration fee!). So I've decided to set up my own race, the SOLOMAN.

Day 116

Workout:
1. 15 minutes of Sandbag getups
2. Find 3RM for squat clean
3.  Chipper:
15 x 225 squat clean, 100 x 4 count mountain climbers, 800m sandbag run

3 hr rest

4. Eva
5 rnds for time:
800m run / 30 KB swing 70# / 30 pullups

Results:
No timed results.

Notes:
The first workouts went well.  I loved the sandbag getups.  Used my bag of rocks which weighs somewhere between 75-100lbs.  My 3RM wasn't 225, but I didn't have plates that I could drop, so I didn't want to push it anymore.  Eva was modified because all the treadmills were taken, so after round one I substituted 1000m rows.  Not that it mattered anyway because the gym closed before I could finish...again.
