3 rounds for time of:
Run 800 meters (1/2 mile)
50 back extensions (subbed supermans)
50 sit-ups
SS 21:12
JL 21:30
Not a bad time, but one and a half minutes slower than my previous attempt. At least I did the supermans and sit-ups in the proper order this time. The run felt great on the first round, but I was dragging serious ass on the last one. The supermans were generally broken something like 30-20 or 40-10 and the sit-ups were broken 30-20 on the first two sets and 20-15-15 on the last set. Running after doing a whole bunch of sit-ups isn't super fun. However, doing those supermans after running was actually kind of awesome. Since I'm laying on my stomach, every time I go up it forces the air out of my lungs and when I come back down I inhale. It seemed like the oxygen recovery I got was far better than it would have been were I simply standing around.

Way to get at it.
Do you guys run outdoors or indoors?
It's an indoor track, but it's kind of small. It takes 10 laps to make a mile, so the runs seem to stretch on longer than they would otherwise, even though the distance is equivalent. I've been running 1.5-2.5 miles outside regularly with my roommate at home, but it never seems as bad as it does on the indoor track.
I think I have the same issue with treadmills. I'm way more beat by the time a half mile rolls around because I've been exhausted mentally by sheer boredom.
Yes, boredom's a killer. And the noise in a room full of treadmills kind of drives me crazy too.
What about the girls in short shorts?
Different kind of crazy.
