    Great time with the morning class! Fran is always fun. Kudos to the many that met Fran for the first time! You all slapped her right in the face. I was happy with how everyone scaled for intensity. It was a good way to kick off the day.

    7:38 @ Silver. First timer to the “Fran”. Hopefully my pullups will improve and I can get sub 6mins next time around.

    7:14 rx’d
    Increased the weight from 75# to a rx’d 95# and beat my old time by over five minutes. I can’t believe it!

    4:46 Rx’d…My goal was to get sub 5. Finished 38 seconds faster than last time I met Fran.

    Felt humbled today with the progress I thought I might have gained with butterfly pull-ups. Its a different game when you try to do them as fast as possible. I started out attempting them, but quickly realized rhythm wasn’t there so switched back to kipping then back to butterfly and was able to find rhythm. Need more practice!

    Finished in 6:42 rx’d

    Over a 1 minute pr. Thrusters were the killer for me.

    Lots of intensity in the 6:30 class. You guys never slacked up!

    Ended up doing something small at home with Mike since we are super behind in packing for our trip. I did 21-15-9 of push ups, squats, and sit ups. My time was 3:44. Great job everyone on Fran I am sad I missed her!

    My first FRAN. Did silver w/ green band assisted. Bummed that I had to move back up to green, but there was no way I could get the job done with the blue band. Next time!

    6:24 Rx’d (PR by 1:09). Enjoyed the 4:00 class, and going head to head with Andrew. Great job, and thanks for the push!

    8:46 Rx’d

    Only second time I’ve done Fran but first time rx’d. Beat my previous scaled Fran time by almost a minute. Happy with that but looking forward to next time when I haven’t worn myself out trying to beat Christina in 21-15-9 WODs from the previous day :) . Melissa and Leah, all I can say is you guys are absolutely amazing! Setting the bar super high for pregnant CrossFit Impulse ladies!!
