Running Accomplishments:

-I'm an avid runner and crossfitter turned obstacle racer.  This year has brought on new and unexpected opportunities racing in Spartan races.  I'm in love with this new challenging part of my life.

Here is what I've come away with so far

1st - Socal Super Spartan 2013

1st - Texas Sprint Spartan2013

2nd- Las Vegas Super Spartan 2013

3rd - Arizona Sprint Spartan 2013

3rd - Atlas Obstacle Race 2013

5th - Spartan World Championships 2013

 

Future Races

October?? maybe Sacramento Beast Spartan

December - Texas Beast

 

 

Short-Term Running Goals:

I am working to become the best obstacle  racer I can be.  If that goes hand in hand with a National Championship title, than I will have met 2 of my goals/dreams.

 

Long-Term Running Goals:

Another sub 3 hour marathon

Sub 1:20 half marathon

I want to complete an ironman and some ultra races.

I Hope to be running until I'm 100.

 

Personal:

I have 2 boys (7 and 4) and a little girl (14 months) that keep me on my toes and make life worth living..  I've been married to my better half (Jim clark) for 10 years.  I teach fitness classes and am a personal trainer - my 2nd love is Zumba!  I love what i do!

I hold Obstacle Training Groups at my house on saturdays -I feel so blessed to be able to help others.

I'm making sure my legs REALLY recover from this week, so I'm keeping the mileage at 8.8.  I ran 5 miles on the watertower trail, and then did my obstacles in between the last 3 miles.   I was REALLY tired, but I don't know if it was because I had to do it later in the evening (post evan basketball game, funeral, and training group).  All my balance obstacles feel great!  I was hitting my spear throws - I better kill it next week.

My name is TyAnn, and I am a crossfit addict.  I had to squeeze in one tiny workout here - even though it's taper week.  In marathon training, you completely back off of all weight training the week of.  But you keep running, just shorter workouts with less intensity.  So I'm still trying to figure out what upper body workouts to keep doing to maintain muscle.  You can't go an entire week without.

I taught Zumba in the am.

And then here's the crossfit workout.

Turkish get ups - basically hold weight above head from laying down position, and keep it up there while you stand up and lay back down.  full body - way hard!  First time trying these - I used the 35 lb kettlebell on each hand.

14 min AMRAP (as many reps as possible in that time) start with 1 time 400 m run

5 TOE TO BAR

5 BURPEES

5 AIR SQUATS

This was all a great idea, but I ended up being way ab sore from the toe to bar a couple days later.

Today was supposed to be a run with 2x 800 m, and 2x400m intervals, but I was sooo tired.  I started to do my first one, and was light headed and heavy.  and my abs were sore from yesterday.    I skipped the intervals and just finished the run.  Ended with obstacle practice in the back yard.

I'm still feeling heavy on my run - not where I want to be at this point.  Someone suggested that is was nerves?????  I finished with once set of pull ups, bicep curls, shoulder press, and dips.

Long long day of travel!  Drove to Temecula by my lonesome, and roomed with Jenny Tobin.  Sleep was awful and got about 4 hours in:(
