I chickened out on the weight because I was afraid of the double unders. I think I am more disappointed in myself than if I had DNF'd with more weight. Grrr...
Jenn - don't be too hard on yourself! Still a hard workout, and a badass time. You just don't give yourself enough credit for your strengths. And now you know. :)
DNF - 136 reps and 30 DUs at 20:00... well, actually at 19:57, but I was in no mood to head out for the run with 3 seconds left. I knew this would be rough, but I fully expected to finish in time. I've leaned out quite a bit this summer, which has helped me out in a lot of areas, but heavy kettlebell swings is NOT one of them.
thanks paul, but my hands are feeling a bit geriatric. May not have been the best decision, but Kyle K was there and I thought maybe I had a chance to beat him for once.
DNF, 126 swings with 1.25 pd/1pd. I'm sure I could have finished with 1pd so I started out with a heavier weight. This was tough, my shoulders and forearms are still trapping it.

Josh called it "heaven in a bucket."
Looking forward to not being able to lift my arms all weekend.
I got to "reward" myself 6 times with DU's and the run.
I broke up swings 30/25/20/20/20/17/18.
Great job 6 a.m.!! This was a tough workout!
DNF, 135 reps in 20 min. 25, 25, 25, 20, 20, 20. Got in from a 200 on the buzzer with 15 reps to go, so I just did them and finished in 20:54.
Good stuff at 5AM!
I was trying to think of a way to keep kettlebell off the ground while resting but Jon said, "if the kettlebell isn't moving, then you are."
Had to break up swings 67, 35, 30, 18. Curious to see how I will feel tomorrow.

I broke the KB swings up in 65, 35, 30 and 20 so I had to run 3 times.
Great job 6am!
