Wonderful Programming. I was gonna take tomorrow off to do some pace work running. Now I will do this workout instead. Thanks David!!!
Bring your lungs, cause Jerry is bringing the pain…
You think Jerry is bad, just wait until you see the warmup!
22:38 Rx
Did this before on May 9 and got 22:22, so close but no cigar.
One positive I will say about this morning’s performance is that I don’t think I killed myself as bad as last time. That’s good in that a similar performance is not as taxing on me now, the bad is that I should have gone faster.
Where I felt I had trouble was on the rower. I wanted to try for ~20 minutes total this time and the goal was to shoot for as close as possible to 6 minutes on each run and 8 minutes on the rower. A 8 min. 2km row breaks down to 2 min. 500m splits. I hit a wall about 6-700m into the row. I was able to pick it up towards the end about the last 4-500m.

May 9 Jerry Data: http://connect.garmin.com/activity/33373115
What’s interesting is a split comparison between today and May 9.
1 mile run: 6:36 vs. 6:12
2km row: 8:51 vs. 9:00
1 mile run: 7:08 vs. 7:08
Now this is all from a manually pressed lap button so we can’t get too focused on the times, but it looks like I didn’t go fast enough on the first mile. The row part may have improved a little bit and I was dead even on the last run.
Do we have the Brown’s to thank for planting this seed?
Have fun Patrick. The legs were toast after the row but I had to push through it because I didn’t want the wife to beat me again!
23:04
Going to make up front squat/rope climb today.
Seems like a leg burner. And what time did the missus post?
I think her time was 23:51.
Front Squat/Rope Climb 22:59
Thought it was going to kill my legs but it was more of a lung burner.
Great workout. 24:02 at the garage door. First mile was 7:35, row went well, but I didnt get the time. Close to 8 because I stayed in the 1:55 to 2:05 range. The next 800 was crap and then the last 800 was 4 min. So I was happy that I could suck it up and bring it home, but once again it is that third quarter of the workout that I lose steam. I would say it is 85 – 90% mental. Great Job Russell.
BTW goal was 24:00 so overall I am happy with the workout.
I ran 3 miles this morning for time; is it a bad idea for me to do this WOD this evening? Especially since I don’t know What the warm up is.
Ashley, unless you’ve got some tendinitis or shin splint issues going on right now then I think you’ll be OK. Morning and evening miles are a great way to build your capability for overall mileage. The first time I ran 6 miles in a day I did 3 in the morning and 3 in the evening. From there 5-6 miles at a time wasn’t a big deal.
If the warmup is too much then you can scale it back.
Great. I’ll see y’all this afternoon then. Thanks Jeff!
Hey Ashley, I was just joking about the warm up. Its nothing crazy. Don’t worry 😉
Lol your comment was the reason I got concerned.
In 12 weeks, I’ve seen such huge improvements in my capability. Today I stood there and waffled between scaled and Rx’d. Thanks to Christina for letting me start out with the really fast guys so I would have longer than the 30 minute cut-off to complete the WOD and I made it in 32:18 Rx’d. 🙂
Congrats on your progress, Michelle. We’re all really proud of you.
27:55 Rx’d. Last 1000m of the row were rough
32:17 rx’d
30:56 Rx’ed. The second run kicks ass! I was so rubbery and out of breath after the row, I thought I was going to collapse! I was really hoping for a sub-30 time, but considering my sporadic attendance at Crossfit due to various ailments, I’m happy to have done it prescribed. Jerry took my breath away… literally 🙂
I should have said the second run “kicked my ass.” “Kicks ass” makes it sound like I thought it was awesome. It was very not awesome. Quite the opposite.
lol @ “it was very not awesome.” Glad you’ve been able to resume training consistently with us. I’m sure you’ll continue to see leaps of progress.
Hahaha you got me even more excited about tonight.
“Jerry” 29:17 Rx. 🙁 i would of done better if it wasnt for doing a PFT today. I’m finished with my complaining. I’ll probably be back for some more self-inflicted abuse tomorrow. 🙂
“Jerry” 26:19 rx’d
Note.. Swallowing a swarm of little bugs was not my favorite part of the WOD!! Haha!
30:42 Rx’d “Jerry”
Thank goodness I had Sarah with me through this thing. We were neck and neck for the most part and it really helped to have someone there to push back when I wanted to stop. I second Robyn on the bugs – definitely got my protein today!
30:46 Rx’d.
Thanks for dragging my butt up that last hill Lauren! I couldn’t have finished strong without you! Ditto on the bugs!
21:40 rx’d. props to hudson for a great race…thanks for the push.
Patrick and Hudson slaughtered this one during the 5:15. Well done, guys. Thanks for everyone’s patience and flexibility today.
Did a team WOD with Sarah and Megamann…
300 air squats
200 18″ box jumps
100 55# power cleans
50 pullups
25 push ups
24:39
Way to go Megan for getting her first pull up today!! I told you, you could do it!! You are awesome!
29:17 Rx’d …the mile runs weren’t bad but that 2K row was brutal. I was just rowing with my eyes closed for the last 1000 meters.
25:53 Rx’d
Splits were approximately 7:15-10:18-8:20. Rowing is definitely a weakness, and running after that row was awful. Thanks Tyler and Greg for the encouragement on the rower…you guys knew I needed it!! Like Robyn, I didn’t like the bug swallowing part either.
I did this workout today (10/8) because Wednesdays are my off day and I cant do squats due to hip problems. Total time was 24:37. The row killed me. First mile was 6:50. The row took me almost 10 minutes. It took me almost 400m of the last mile to get some sort of control over my legs. I would like to do this with a group to see if I could knock off some time.
Thanks for the encouragement lunch class!
