Run 5K.

25:41 on the treadmill. Haven't done that in a while. Probably started off way too slow. I kept speeding it up though as I felt comfortable that I wasn't going to blow out my calf as I have been doing lately while running pose.

'Mary'

9 rounds Rx'd. PR (Normally a Cindy day but I need to get these Single leg squats down)

Is it cheating if I use my Do-Wins for the SLS's? I dunno...I feel like i figued them things out though. It's more of a straight up and down motion more than anything else.

Why would that be cheating?
Do you consider it cheating when you use them for other WODs?

Nice work, I say!

Clean & Jerk

5 - 95
3 - 135
1 - 155 (Sq)
1 - 165 (Sq)
1 - 175 (Sq) - Bad rack...uncomfortable.
1 - 185 (Pwr)
1 - 195 (miss) Clean. Bad concentration. Slow elbows. Bad hip ext.
1 - 195 (Pwr)
1 - 205 (Miss) Clean
1 - 205 (miss) clean

Wanted to concentrate today on having the proper rack position on all of my jerks...It's tough for me to get it on the shoulders. Also used the hook grip on everything.

Also - didn't feel like I had it today for some reason. My PR is 200 but I hadn't done these in a while. When i'm having a good clean day, everything seems to go in slow mo...particularly right when I get the bars above the knees. Didn't work like that today.

"Eva"

Five rounds for time of:
Run 800 meters
2 pood Kettlebell swing, 30 reps
30 Pull-ups

42:50 Rx'd. tweaked the mid back a bit on the 2nd round of kettlebell swings but when I kept everything tight it felt okay.

Good job to the 'volunteers'/morons who came in to do this one with me...Vinny, John and Shawn - You guys all did a great job. Vinny (the old man) did it in 37 something.[/QUOTE]

'Eva'
5 Rounds
Run 800m
30 KB swings, 2 pood
30 pull-ups

Did this in about an inch of snow today. Not sure how far I went on the run though, but I guessed. Went to the 3rd fire hydrent down brentwood and back.

My time was 43:57 which wasn't a PR but, I'll take it in the snow. And we'll see how far I was going when the snow gets cleared.

5 rounds for time:

95# Push Jerk, 15 reps
15 L-Pull-ups

18:33 Rx'd. With my ugly *** L-pull-ups. Those will officially be added to my warmup daily. I kind of cheat at them doing singles...using momentum and such. They're a different beast when you're doing more than one.

'Angie'

18:04 - not a PR...missed it by 6 seconds. Darned push-ups. Also had to rush through the squats to get that time...

doing a 2 a day WOD tomorrow....Fran C2B+ Elizabeth. We'll see how I feel after that. Have the OCCF games coming up.

Re: JD's CrossFit Chronicle
 

What are the OCCF games? Got a link?

Competition training

2 a day today.

WOD #1

C2B Fran
5:49 @ 8 am

WOD #2

Elizabeth (Squat Clean)
11:46 @ 10:45 am

Never did C2B Fran before...that sucked. Which made 'Elizabeth' way less fun...

Did deadlifts at powerhouse today...I'm not comfortable doing heavy deadlifts there I've decided...#1 the bar is too fat...#2 - I'm not comfortable dropping the weight at the speed I like to drop it when it's heavy...it's too loud.

I stopped after I missed 355 and just did one more at 315 and called it a day.

Deadlift

10 - 135
5 - 225
1 - 275
1 - 315 (wobbly)
1 - 315
1 - 335
1 - 355 (miss)
1 - 315
