Hangover WOD

Hangover WOD – share the work equally with a partner:
5 rounds for time of:
20 Deadlifts – 135/95lb (sub for Tire Flips)
2o Kettlebell Swings – 55/35lb, Int 35/25lb
30 Russian Twists – 35/25lb dumbbell
150m Row each

I partnered with Darren. We did this in 18:53.

Partner Painstorm

With a partner, 5 rounds of:
Row 300m (both partners do this, switching off)
100 feet walking lunges with 75lbs across our backs (split the work)
Run 400m (everyone runs!)
100 feet traveling burpees (split the work, alternate jumps, start from where your partner lands)

I partnered with Jarrett and Darren, with me working the same time as Jarrett.

Maybe it's because I didn't eat more than a spoonful of Nutella beforehand, or maybe it's just a tough-ass WOD, but this FUCKING KILLED ME.

The transitions from the lunges to the 400m run were the worst. I stopped running for a moment at one point during the third round.

It took us 38:03. The individual version of this Painstorm involved 500m rows, half-bodyweight lunges (for me, that would have been 90lbs) and, obviously, no splitting the lunges or travelling burpees. That sounds inhuman.

Team Okotoks

In teams of 4 (2 men and 2 women):
600m run by both males in tandem
25 OHS 65# by both females, each (men rest)
25 OHS 95# by both males, each (females rest)
80 burpees in 8 sets of 10, each athlete does sets of 10 in order i.e. 1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4
25 SDLHP 65# by both females, each (men rest)
25 SDLHP 95# by both males, each (females rest)
600m run by both females in tandem

I teamed with Darren, Kim Fe, and Kat for this one, and it took us 18-something.

Everything felt good, probably because there was lots of rest. I felt like I had a pretty good pace on the 600m run. I did the 25 OHS unbroken. I actually should have done them in smaller sets to make it easier on Darren, who is nursing an ankle injury.

Burpees are burpees. I can do sets of 10 pretty quickly. The sumo deadlift high pulls felt better than they usually do. I think I was getting a better shrug than I ever have before.
