5 RFT
400m
15 OHS @95lbs

27:02

I did this as prescribed. I shut off the voice telling me to scale the load and drop a round (or two). "WARM BODY COLD MIND" was my mantra.

The runs were moderate to slow. I sped up near the end of the last run because I wanted to be finished. I wanted to run outside but it was chilly and rainy so I opted for the treadmill.

I forced myself to do the ohs. The first round was really shakey. I was pretty sure I was going to drop to 65lbs, but I soldiered on. I broke the sets as needed, usually 6 5 4. By the last round I was feeling confident in my lifts so I did 6 and then all 9. I'm sure there were some that were of questionable depth. I'm also sure that I had butt-wink on a few. And yet, I know I got a few good, solid lifts in there and I feel really good about it.

Almost Finished Resting

15:00 minutes on the rower. Rolled it outside in the sun. 85 degrees. Felt great. Logged 101 calories - my rower doesn't count distance :( I am starting to feel refreshed and ready to jump back into the WODs. I almost did yesterday's - but made myself wait. I'll get in after the next rest day. Oh, I still feel the swim!

AMRAP in 10 minutes 100m sprint (25m out n back x2) 10 situps 10 supermans 5 rds + 50m Did this in the school basket ball/ volleyball gym. I was able to be barefoot on the wooden court. Very comfy. I had a little twinge in my back from carrying this front-loaded fat vest but it's way better than it has been.

AMRAP in 10:00 5 DL @ 215lbs 5 Burpees 5 Squat Cleans @ 105lbs 5 Burpees Total - 4 rounds huffing and puffing. Thanks to Charles for giving me this one on FaceBook. His suggested weights were 300 on the DLs and 185 on the cleans. I knew better than to try that! HA! Warmed up with OHS and pigeons. The OHS stuff with the bar and not PVC - time to be a big boy!
