Run:
20 miles (approx 3 hours 30 min)
Nutrition:
1 cliff bar prior, 1 bar 10 miles in, at mile 16 I ate 1 string cheese. The cheese was a bad idea and did not sit well. Went through 70 oz of water.
Notes:
Started to bonk a bit on mile 16 and feet started to get sore. I went out a bit to fast. On the 50 mile run I have coming up I need to remember to walk more at a brisk pace. Overall post run body feels good.

Wednesday: BP, BS, run
Warm Up:
Brief stretch (not long enough and really affected my squats)
Strength:
Back Squat: (c1,w1)
5 x 185
5 x 205
20 x 235
5 x 10 x 155
Bench Press: (c1,w1)
5 x 145
5 x 165
12 x 185
5 x 10 x 135
Swing:
2 x 15 x 60# db
Chinups:
Lots between sets
Miscel arm work at end
Conditioning:
32 min run (easy pace)
40 min walk
Notes:
Decent day. My depth was not low enough on the first few squats in the set of 20. I was really upset afterword because the strength was there and the mental focus was not. Usually the mental focus is what I excel at so needless to say I was damn upset when a mental error affected a great effort. Cannot and will not happen again. A lot of this was due to a lack of a proper warm up. I got excited to tackle this workout and cut my warm up short. It showed and affected my squats in a negative way. On a positive note, depth seemed to improve as the set when on. Form was not stellar as I have not done back squats in a while. Always something to improve on. Legs felt like jelly on the run.
