So I've been doing my Insanity workouts as well as modified Crossfit workouts from home.  It's been a fun mix. :)  I'm running about 2 times a week now. Hoping for an outside run tomorrow afternooon. :)  Today I did Insanity and then I did this short Crossfit workout:

3 rounds of....

20# kettle bell

50 jump rope

my time = 3:03 minutes

It was hard!
