Run, Power Gym

1.5mi in 10:30

Overhead squats: 5 at 89, 5 at 111, 5 at 122lb
Front squats: 5 at 133, 5 at 142, 4 at 146lb
Jerks: 5 at 111, 5 at 122, 5 at 133, 1 at 138lb
Sots presses: 10 at 30lb, 10 at 41lb, 5 at 45lb

I cut my run short to avoid shin splints, as I felt them coming on about midway through the first lap. I guess I wasn't ready to jump into running 5k at my usual pace, so I'll get some new shoes and ease into it a little more. I was feeling pretty good on the front squats, but the jerks were really rough on my wrists. I'm going to have to step back and work on my form so I stop pushing from my wrists throughout the motion, and instead use momentum to turn it into more of a throw and a catch like the other power lifts.
