Started day with what I planned on being heavy clean and jerk's and rope climbs. I did several squat cleans with 185 and a few jerks. I started the timer but I just could not put it together so I abandoned the WOD. Things just weren't right. I don't really know what was wrong. It might be because of my back hurting. Instead I did the following.
5 Rounds for time: 33:04.38
1 Rope assent 15 feet
600 meter run - subbed in 1200 meter bike, MTN bike.
15 - 95lb Squat Clean Thrusters
Splits
1 - 6:19.74
2 - 7:16.56
3 - 6:31.43
4 - 6:34.87
5 - 6:21.78
Total time - 33:04.38
I have been wanting to do this one for weeks. The weather was amazing so today was the day. 79 deg at WOD time with full sun and spotty clouds. AMAZING. Wind was a bit up for the bike but man it was great out there. I was in the zone for round 5 wanting to negative split I ended up biking almost to the mile marker before I realized what I had done and I still turned in the second fastest split of the previous rounds. I am sure with the extra distance I would have had a sub 6 min split. I hit the floor and was toast for 5 plus minutes. Great WOD this one flat wore me down. A great finish for the day considering how it started. The rope assents were not part of the original WOD but since I have not done them in a while and they were supposed to be on for today I added them in. I did loose 4lbs of sweat today on this one. This effected the time as well. I was sweating so hard my eyes were burning with the sweat in them. Had to stop a few times and get my towel to dry my face so I could see.
