Warrior Dash in the morning

Took an epsom salt bath last night. Woke up at 5 this morning and
2 cups coffee
1/2 tab yohimbe
2 aspirin
1 tylenol

Warmed up with band good mornings and kettlebell swings. Hamstrings HURT.

Then I went and did a trail "run"(closer to jog/walk but hey it is what it is). No basis for comparison so I decided to "run" for 20 minutes and then try and beat that time back. The rules I set for myself were
-If you feel like you can run, you have to run.
-If your heart rate is anywhere in the 150's, you have to run
Exceptions to these rules were sections of the trail where it was too muddy/dark to run safely.

Anyway here's what the HR monitor spit out
39 minutes
AVG HR 173
Peak HR 193
1114kcal
HA! God my conditioning sucks. Oh well good start. However I did run 20 minutes in 19 minutes.

Magic recovery drink and stretching afterwards. If I'm not lazy maybe I'll even do abs.
