Run, Bike, Filthy 50

Filthy 50 you say? What is that? You did what?

I started the day off with a run on the road through housing developments and rural country roads. The run was a little uneventful. Probably because it was 7:00AM and everyone was sleeping in.
When I started out the temperature was about 75 degrees, and when I made it back home it had gotten up to about 83 degrees.
I had decided that while I was running that I should take the bike out for a quick ride.
I ended up with 7.5 miles for a run, and grabbed a Zone bar, and off I went on a bike ride.
This is when I saw all the activity. I think I counted 4 runners, and 3 cyclists. Kinda rare to see that many on the roads around here. They actaully looked like people who were training for something.
Anyway, I ended up with 11.5 miles for the ride.

Well, by the time I got back home from the ride, the temp had jumped up to about 88 degrees.
I had taken in a lot of water, and still ended up dropping about 3 lbs.
The heat made it hard to do anything the rest of the day. We peaked at about 92 degrees or something like that.

Now, WTF is a Filthy 50? -Your worst nightmare I would bet.
(It was actually my worst nightmare).

I've been wanting to stick with the WOD or (work out of the day) with Crossfit (see links off to the side).
I looked at the Crossfit website this morning to see what the WOD was, and thought man, how the hell was I going to do that? Let me tell you, if there was a time in my life that I wanted die, it would have been at the start of the workout.
First of all it starts out with box jumps on a 24" box. I didn't have one, so I used an 18" instead.
I can typically do 20 of them with no problem, but 50 really got me good.
The rest of the workout is below. I am already really sore from this, and will pay dearly come Tuesday and Wednesday.
