Basement: 100 burpees for time
Didn't make it out of bed in time to go to boxing, but decided to re-do this one from 6 days earlier.
It took me the exact same time. 7:28.

Johnson: Tire Flips EMOM
After my first encounter with the Johnson Collegiate's tractor tire, I wanted a rematch.
4 flips per minute for 15 minutes
Done. Getting a grip underneath the tire is a challenge, especially after fatigue sets in.

Football field WOD with Nick: So Tired
Ever since discovering a few weeks ago that Johnson Collegiate near my house has a tractor tire on its unlocked football field, I had been planning to do a tire-flipping workout with Nick. I finally made that happen.
Warm-up: tossing the frisbee
90 seconds max tire flips x 3
Me: 10, 14, 14.
Nick obliterated my totals. I think he did 16,16, and 18 or something ridiculous.
I also did a bonus workout of 3 tire flips and a goalpost-to-goalpost "sprint." I put sprint in quotes because, while I was running as fast as I could at the time, it wasn't, um, fast.
28 seconds. I think. It might have been 38.
Cooldown: More frisbee.

OPEX Regina:
This was called a 15 minute AMRAP, but I decided to do it as a "for time" WOD with a a 15 minute time cap.
-Row 350m
-8 handstand push-ups
-Airbike 2km
-10 pull-ups
-Run to the Kiwanis bridge
-15 knee raises
-Row 350m
Rest, then do it again.
1. 12:55
2. 13:25 (Note, during the second one, there was, I kid you not, a Sikh Day parade right across my running path, so I turned around and went in the opposite direction. I tried to guesstimate an equivalent distance, but could have been off either way. )

Hotel Room WOD: 100 burpees for time
I was in Saskatoon for work. I considered doing a workout in the fitness center but there wasn't a lot of floor space and I thought I might look like a spaz.
So, in my room, I did 100 speed burpees for time:
7:28. That averages a little more than 13 burpees per minute, which isn't mind-blowing. But it did the job.
