Yea, go for it! The poet T.S. Eliot once said "Only those that will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go." Hit your goals hard.

1x1 @ 100 - This one was absolutely a psychological victory for me.  100 seemed like a huge barrier to go through, the first two times I tried to unrack the bar I couldn't. But, I took some time, repeated my battle phrase, and completed a rep.

Impressive bench press and flexed arm hang. I don't believe I can last 10 seconds hanging like that. Keep busting through the barriers!

Took a break over the holidays, just did light barbell work, and tried the first Zombies! Run intro mission. I did not last and should definitely re-do it. My calves got ridiculously tight, is that I running shoes things? I haven't worn a pair in a while so I'm wondering if that effects it.

1x3 @ 50

Wasn't really in it on this day. Gave up easy and did not feel successful until the sprints. Maybe need to give more attention to warmup on OHP day?

This article might be able to help you with the running shoes question. I know when I first began running in running shoes my calves flared up, but it went away.
