Not sure if the 400 was long or the rain slowed me down. But for working late nights and working out early in the morning it was a good workout. Now to eat and go back to sleep.

A) 215 pretty sure that’s a PR
B) 9:30, not even close to my PR but I’ll take it with being so inconsistent with training since October

It’s been quite the week Holly! Totally makes sense that you might be a little on the sore side 🙂 And you still PR’d your Helen time!

A: I pr’d my push press, by 10#!!! I got 130 🙂 I had been stuck at 115 for months, got 120 last month aND felt super strong at the 130 today.

B: I struggled with helen a bit due to the massive humidity today. Hard to breathe and slippery bar.
10:05 rx (I figured it WAS 3 rds 😉 )
