As a specialist runner who has run 15.25 for 5km and 32 for 10km I have been dabbling in Crossfit for the past 18 months doing the WOD 4-5 times per week. I ran my current PBs 8 years ago at 27 and am now at 35 running very close to these times (15.45 / 32.57) following crossfit. I have not as yet depsite my best endeavours comitted full on to crossfit endurance and still run 80-100km per week on top of the main site. I am stronger than I have ever been - I do 30 dead arm chin ups / deadlift 150kg (78kg runner) have a 4.10 Fran (will crack 4mins soon), Angie 17mins and filthy fifty of 20mins. I attribute CF to my increased strength, my lack of injuries and general wellbeing. I am a firm believer that your system works, but wish I could get my head around only running 3 times per week!!!!! I am getting very good results doing what I am doing and have some big events coming up and don't want to go backwards from reducing my running to much - I guess the only way to truley find out is by diving in.
