27:58 5k run on gravel/dirt. Some stomach upset throughout this one. Felt low on energy as well despite fueling the way I normally do and waiting long enough before starting. Did the planks with :10 rest between each :30 and took an extra :30 rest before starting round 3.

Running is already a weakness, then adding only 4 hours of sleep and heavy rain made it even harder.
During the planks sweat seemed to explode out of me. It was slippery and hard to hold still. Anyone else notice a higher rate of sweet during the planks?

Champions Club Scaling Notes:
RANT:
Check back a few for scaling notes on the 5k. The plank part is interesting, though, because usually it would say practice SLIPS for 15 minutes after instead of giving a specific prescription. Here's my experience: planks are way harder than I remember them being. I am trying to keep my head back, shoulders externally rotated, abs braced, and suck in below my belly button... and don't move one centimeter. This is really hard and gives me a lot of feedback (time under tension) of where my spine is.I haven't progressed to any of the other plank variations yet, so I might have to try it. All I know is I have only done them in the middle of a workout, and not after running an entire 5k. So I see this as how well can I control my spine after my entire body is sore and I'm breathing heavy after a 5k run?
That will be the test.

INTENDED STIMULUS
.
This is our JAM! A twenty/thirty minute intense workout with a very functional movement in it? We got this. This is what we do every day. If you hate running, change your tune. Hate something that is worth hating like a fly in your soup, and instead be challenged by running. Accept the challenge. Our anatomies are designed to make us good runners, let's do this! Check this out. We have been running a lot during our workouts lately. If those runs don't feel so bad that's a good finding. Sure, it is because they are shorter, but it is also because there are rounds in them. A super common and productive strategy for endurance athletes is to break everything into small chunks, a.k.a. rounds. Today approach this run as 5 rounder. Pace it just like you would do with a five rounder, if you need a 15 second walk between rounds, do it. This might actually give you better results. But think about this, if you want to stop or slow down on round 2, tell yourself: "not right now, I'll quit on the next round". Get those five rounds done!
On the planks the task will not be all that different. Find awesome shapes and apply what you have learned on the run: quit later!
OPTION 1
Run as far as possible in 25 minutes
Then, 3 rounds of:
30-second left-side plank on elbows
30-second table hold
30-second right-side plank on elbows
30-second front plank
OPTION 2
Run as far as possible in 20 minutes
Then, 3 rounds of:
20-second left-side plank on elbows
20-second table hold
20-second right-side plank on elbows
20-second front plank
