I'm sort of about doing random workouts with odd things and doing workouts off the top of my head. Like in the middle of a hike picking up a big rock and running/trudging up a hill with it. etc etc.
Today I was doing a stair workout, mostly stair sprints and I added two reps of a sprint I hadn't done in a few years and it broke me really good. I do my stair workouts at a stadium that is about 60 or so stairs high and the stadium length spans just over the length of a football field, so about 110 yards. I start at the bottom of one end of the stadium and sprint up the stairs and then back down - once down I sprint the length of the stadium (110 yds) to the farthest set of stairs then sprint that set, go back down and return to the other end with another 110 yd sprint, finally finishing with a sprint up the initial set of stairs. So all told the sprint includes (3) flights of stair sprints with (2) 110 yard running sprints in between. All told it takes about 50 seconds. I did two reps. Hope that explanation made sense.
Point of all that is its a sprint that kinda just popped into my head that seemed fun and hard. Anyone else have anything unique they thought of or know of to throw a curve into a workout?
