Subject: Races that involve strength as well - Pump and Run? I come from a strength training background and am slowly getting into endurance sports. I saw a race called "Pump and Run" which involves weight lifting and biathlon. You ben press a percentage of your weight as many reps as you can, then you run/bike/run. In the end they take 30 seconds off of your R/B/R time for every rep you completed on the benchpress. I'm really drawn to this type of race since I still really like lifting.
Is this type of race common? Are there others similar? I'd like to find a pump and bike event if possible.
