[quote=Lee Ann McCall;425747]Wow, Steve. First off, CONGRATS on getting the pull up back!! See, I was just one day off on my prediction. The OH grip will be right behind it.

On the foam roller, we just got one at home. I haven't used it yet, but the CFH (crossfitting hubby) swears by it for some problems he has. I hope it really helps you and stops being so painful.

Great job sticking with Cindy. As you know, I have given up a time or two, and it's great you stuck with it. I will think of you the next time I think of DNF'ing.

And finally, IS IT PR WEEK OR WHAT? [/quote]

[quote=Nancy Cohen;425787]Woohoooo!!!!!!!!

[B]Timed recovery:[/B] 3:30 HR from 148 to 118.

[B]WOD: 7 Rounds for Time,
21 Shoulder Presses

Shoulders were fried and worn out otherwise - - decided enough was enough! :Flush000:

Looks like it might rain - - really beautiful up here in the pines today. I'd love nothing more than to take a slow run (if my knee will handle it) or good walk in the rain.........

Nice time, hope your knee feels better.

[quote=Charles Bennington;426199]Nice time, hope your knee feels better.[/quote]

Thanks, Chuck! Yes, the knee is much better today. PT yesterday kinda helped to dial it in and when I hit the elliptical today, the knee tracked better than it has (doing that exercise) since beginning my post-surgical WOs.
