C&J, dips, 800m

3 rounds:
9 clean & jerks (95#)
21 parallette dips
800 m run

Time: 20:21

Had a hard time stringing together the c&j's. Substituted the parallette dips for 15 ring dips. Running felt slow!

Track workout

1600 meters
- 1:52, 1:55, 1:53, 1:51

800 meters
- 1:38, 1:44
- rest 3 min

400 meters
- 1:24

Calf hurt a little bit during the first two laps and during the last 200m. It's definitely sore now, so hopefully lots of icing will help it heal up soon.

NorCal Sectionals!

10:40 - WOD B
(800m run and as many 75 lb OH squats as possible in 6 minutes)
I finished the run in about 3:30 and got 14 squats - way better than the 6 squats I managed last Saturday! (The winner of the event got 47.)

2:40 WOD A
(10 min of 7 thrusters, 12 KB swings, 7 ctb pull-ups)
I got 3 rounds + 7 +12 + 4 - had a hard time getting my chest to the bar on the last set up pull-ups and had about half my reps discounted. Alas! (Three women tied for first in that event with 6 rounds + 2 thrusters.)

I came in 72 out of 125 = 57th percentile.
I feel pretty good - I think I put in my best effort, and I'm definitely inspired by the women who finished above me. It would have been nice to compete on Sunday too - partly because it's neat to workout with everyone, and partly because I paid $100 to go - but I didn't make the cut. Next year, right?
