Spartan friend and blogger Margaret Schlachter recently won a Bloggie for Best Sports Blog after a worldwide vote. Margaret is a regular on the Spartan racing circuit and one of the original members of Spartan Chicked, a movement that began at last year’s Spartan Beast, where Margaret took third place female!
On this Spartan Chicked Tuesday, we thought we’d give her some love and let her choose a WOD for Spartan Nation. True to her Spartan core, she chose one that
involves a workout partner… a rock.
Congratulations Margo and here’s your WOD Sparta, brought to you by none other than Ms. Dirt in Your Skirt herself, Margaret Schlachter!
This is a WOD I came up with right after Hurricane Irene hit Vermont and left my town an island. I couldn’t go on the trails and I had to stay off the road due to construction. When life throws a kink in the chain, you work it out. Choose a rock or weight that is manageable for multiple sets. Live in snowy climates? Do it with snowshoes on!
Grab a Rock find a hill and get ready to go…
15 Minute – Warm-up -jog, bike, jump rope
Training: 5 Rounds
Uphill throws to top of the hill
50 Clean and Jerks
50 Squats
