CBH Weekend

Friday was a nice 6.5 mile figure 8 around the two lakes. Saturday was the big Fran Challenge at Cross-fit. This is one of Crossfits named challenges for time. It is 21-15-9 of thrusters and pull-ups. So 21 thrusters, 21 pull-ups, etc. Thrusters involve picking the bar up from the ground, putting it on your front shoulders and then squatting, standing and push pressing the bar overhead. Once it is on your shoulders you can do the move without putting the bar back on the ground-unless you run out of steam. Mom broke her PR by 2 minutes. I had never done it. I used 65 lbs-which it ok, but RX for women is 65 and for men 95. I can do 3 at 95, but I could never finish the whole thing. Today-Sunday-us a speed work day.
