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.

Workout:
5 rnds of max weighted (20lbs vest) ring dips

The weight makes kipping much more tricky.  Becca did this wod w/ the band and got 12-12-11-11-14.

3 rnds for time
100 L Pullups

Did this w/ Becca alternating on the bar.  She finished 50 w/ the band in 17:30ish and I had 20 left to go so I finished up.  Not legit L pullups for most (...really all) of them but the abs felt it anyway.
