Squat Snatch and "Helen on Water"

A. :00 Oly = 3 position Squat Snatch 65% (High Hang, Mid-thigh, floor) x3
Then Squat Snatch heavy single 1-1-1

Used 85lbs for the first part, then went 115, 135, 145(PR)

I didn't catch the 145 in a full squat. I was maybe about halfway there when I caught the weight. I completed the squat and then stood up. I'm fairly sure that I was closer to a pure squat snatch than I would have been during my previous PR.

B. :30 Metcon = “Helen on water” 3 rounds for time of
500m Row
21 Kettlebell Swings 55/35lb
12 Pull-ups

Took me 12:32. I would have liked to do everything without stopping, but that wasn't happening. Still, it's more than a minute better than the last time I did this (though I wasn't at 100% back then).
