World Record Mile Time
(you'll notice, I'm pretending I didn't just read 60 burpees. still plotting how I'm going to slip out the door unnoticed after the box jumps.)
6:52 for squats/burpess, rx'd @ 181# and 30. This wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.
It was good to get back in the gym...hell it was nice just to get out of my house for a while for something other than shoveling snow. Nice job 6am crew.
I got 46" (got my feet on 50", but never landed balanced).
metcon: 6:30 rx'ed.
BC, are you sure it wasn't 6 reds?
6:13 for metcon Rx'd.
Great job 6 a.m. crew as usual! Felt good to be back at my "regular" time.
Which reminds me - most graceful miss of the morning goes to Greg Mo for his Shawn Johnson-esque mount on top, Bella Legosi would be proud. Most "oh-my-god-is-she-ok?!?" miss of the morning goes to Shelley. Ow. Hope you're feeling ok Shelley, way to bounce back...literally.
-attempted 35" but I kept psyching myself out! I would swing my arms to jump and then.... couldn't jump for it
6:53 metcon
- 109# back squats (75% of 1rm), and I love me some burpees! :)
today was fun! great work 4:30!
dnf for the metcon. I was at the bottom of my last burpee when the buzzer rang. frustrating.
DNF metcon with 5 burpees left. Surprisingly, the burpees were not necessarily the limiting factor here. My squats felt weak and SLOW - 164# felt WAY heavier than it should have.
