Finally finished in 6:40 after failing 2X on the 8th rep of the pull-ups in the 7th round. I have not pushed myself this hard since my early Fran days. Grip absolutely could no longer respond. Feels good to join this group. I am going to be following this at least until the qualifier and will hopefully not have to make any subs, but I am nursing an ankle sprain. Did the last 3 WOD's with Todd and saw him pick up his game, fun to see.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-955910955820173624.post-52055612806681002852009-01-29T20:53:00.000-07:002009-01-29T20:53:00.000-07:00Sweet Jesus, Todd, you shoulda barfed!
