Already two days into the week and two wods in - wahoo!

21-15-9
Dips
Squat snatch

Rx for the snatch was 95# - I did 65#.  Griffin was coaching and I finished in 14:10. I can't express how highly I think of Griffin as a coach - he's always composed and extremely knowledgeable - just great guy all around so if you have an opportunity to be coached by him - go for it and you wont be disappointed. I wasnt, however, as thrilled with my time of 14:10 - the wod was designed to be finished in sub 12 min... I fell once, failed two other reps and that was only at 65#. My form was off at the beginning and that really tired me for the rest of the wod. Also, i never underestimate dips as one of my biggest goat is the closely related pushup (I am up to 47 unbroken LEGIT pushups however - 60 is my next mini goal) but by the end of the wod, i was doing sets of one :/

next wod was:

5 rounds
60' bear crawl
5 push jerks
200m run

Rx was 135# and since i think my jerk technique is solid, i Rxed it. I wanted to go all out and not check times, but the way mike d lined us up in a stagger start for the bear crawl i was put right by the white board. I saw the madden brothers' times of 9:35 and 8:14 Rx - something to shoot for.  I really focused on keeping my midline stable during the jerks and felt as if i pushed the runs more than usual - finished with 9:47 Rx. I felt good about my performance. Unfortunately i then saw the 615a class times: four beasts had sub 7min times! I really gotta get back on the wod wagon!

Happy Birthday Kristen! Your domination knows no bounds!
