Congratulations to everyone who competed this weekend!
Squat Clean – 120kg – definitely have more in me on this lift…ran out of time for the clean pull
WOD – 9:22 Rx – so awkward running with a med ball!
Nice work 5:30
Squat Clean: 38kg – Still taking it easy after the marathon a week ago, and nursing a sore something-or-other in one leg.
WOD: 9:03 with 33kg HPC and #20 med ball. Felt good to run again.
Awesome job by all of the competitors this weekend!
Squat clean: 85kg (PR). Incorrectly added the weights when I completed the lift. Totally thought it was 75kg. Was stuck at 82kg with this lift for the longest time. Glad to get over that hump.
WOD: 9:19 @55kg
Great job 6am!
Congrats to everyone who competed this weekend! Can’t wait to hear more about it.
squat clean: 115#, failed at 120#.
WOD: 8:58 at 75#. Should’ve gone heavier, but glad to be able to move faster.
Nice job competitors! Can’t wait to hear the results!
SC: 75 kg – and it was ugly
WOD: 9:26 @ 55 kg – should’ve gone Rx
On a side note, we decided to run towards the right and down Yawkey with the medballs to the original 800 m turn-around point (considering the loop is 600 m, and the 800 m turn-around is at 400 m, that leaves 200 m to go. Yawkey was a LOT less crowded, has wider sidewalks, and you don’t have to deal with “collision corner” at Sals. However, after the WOD, I measured the distance, and it was only 381 m… Going all the way to the corner is 426 m. So, somewhere in the middle is about right…I think it’s a better course for a 400 m run, frankly. Would love to get that marked on the sidewalk.
70KG Squat Clean.
10:34 WOD w/ 45KG cleans.
SClean – 120kg after converting it into pounds, i realized i am way behind where i was 6 months ago. need to get crackin on this one.
WOD – 9:46 Rx.
SC: 95 kg – This is a PR I’ve been trying to hit for months.
WOD: 8:28 Rx
SC: 70kg
WOD: 8:40 @ 55kg (should’ve tried RX!)
sc: 95 kg, pretty sure this is a PR. missed 96 2x
wod: 8:49, rx. yup, just another day chasing phipps…
one thing to note, reebok advertises their oly shoe as something you can run in. while, technically, this is true, it is not at all an enjoyable experience.
