Come along way since July...

WOD

"Fran" (Alternate WOD)

Three rounds, 21-15- and 9 reps, for time of:

95 pound Thruster
Pull-ups

When I saw the regular WOD posted last night I said "NO WAY"...I thought it was going to be much colder outside than it turned out to be. Didn't want to climb ropes with my already dry, cracked hands. However, when I got to the gym and realized it wasn't really that cold outside I already had my mind set on Fran.

In the end I'm glad I did Fran. My time was 12:12 doing the entire workout as Rx with 65# Thrusters and all kips. The Thrusters were difficult and my shoulders are already sore less than 4 hours later. The kips felt good though. I felt really strong with them today. My grip would actually give out way before I was tired.

For some reason my previous time for Fran was 8:48...I couldn't understand why my time was so much slower today. Then I looked in my notebook that I initially started writing my WOD results in...Fran was my very first workout as a "Crossfitter" on July 24 and 8:48 was from way back then. My entry said I started out with 45# for first round of Thrusters, then switched to 25# for last two rounds. Also, all of my pull-ups were done as jumping on the box.

So, I'm excited and proud of myself to see how far I've come...My time was slower today, but for good reason!
