10/19 WOD
Halting Power Clean
2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2
95-95-115-115-125-125-135-135-145-155

Tabata Row (cal)
5

First real WOD in basically three weeks, since the week before my two-week vacation I was so busy getting ready I barely had time to WOD. Pleased with PC's. Felt like they clicked. Finally figured out that I only have to pull high enough to get clearance to pop under bar to catch it.
Tabata row showed the loss of metcon from the vacation (and the 5 extra pounds I added). Started with 7's, then 6's, only once got that damned 5, otherwise would have been a 6.

Hey guys, where has Deb Weber gone? Do you know if she is ok? A lady on another forum asked me for a link to Over 50 CrossFitters. I was surprised to find the last few pages of posts are all of the guys with no ladies posting.

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

Here I am! I usually post in my own log, not a lot to learn from my stuff its all weightlifting 101. Wheres pat q? where are the other ladies that used to post? Busy im sure. I dont post much in here, its a little intimidating, actually for me its the whole board, everybody so strong prs all over. Its all good. inspiring, keeps me playing catchup, I guess;)
I posted a news clip yesterday, a lady jumped a 7 ft wall escaping a gunman...my first thought?...must be a crossfitter. Someone pointed out a cfer woulda kicked his butt!!
