GRACE

Well it was a 6am class today and I was excited as I saw the posting for GRACE.

I did it last time at 65lbs and my time was 6:11.  I wanted to improve that.

Mornings I am finding it harder to go heavier but I decided on 70lbs.  I wanted to hold the same weight through the entire workout.  75lbs should have been able to be done but did I mention it was at 6am?

WOD

"GRACE"

30 Clean and Jerks  (RX was 95lbs)

TIME:  5:05

I was really pleased. It is one of the first times that I have proof that weight has gone up and time has still dropped.  Woo Hoo!

I know my weights have gone up but sometimes my times have been slower or there are other factors etc.  This is just like for like and it felt good!

Filthy Fifty - that was nasty

This was just ugly - it had been almost 2 weeks since I was at CrossFit and it showed.

I thought about crying during the burpees but I got through them too.

What a workout.
