[Sportsandrec] Large runner

[Jayne Seif]

They did some article I think in runners world about taking marathoners and having them do CrossFit during the week and only doing the long runs on the weekends. I have run 3 half marathons but I have never really done CrossFit. I have always wanted to try it. I might have to try that next.

I actually quit CrossFit last year as the load just got too much to do a bunch of backsquats one day and then run fifteen plus miles the next day. I had just begun CF and had already committed to the full marathon, so it was the right move for me. I love CrossFit so much that I am not running fulls this year to give it a real shot. I am currently doing CrossFit five or six days per week and training for a half. This seems to be a perfect balance for me. I've run four halfs and two fulls. I will run four halfs this year while training like a monster in CrossFit seeing what kind of gains I can get there.
