The CrossFit Girls Revenge and a new PR

The CrossFit Girls Revenge and a new PR

Wow!  Big PR tonight!  Finally, hit a big milestone which I’ve gunned for since I started CrossFit 3 1/2 years ago… a sub 3 minute Fran!  Not only that, I got half way through Annie and then was 4 reps short of finishing Grace.  5 months ago I wouldn’t even have fathomed trying this triple-threat.  But now with my nutrition dialed in, admittedly I am feeling fantastic.  I felt like I could have kept going (adrenaline? maybe.)

All that being said, with the DOMs setting in, it’s now time to have a quick bath in fish oil to help with the inflammation… LOL!

Big WOD tonight... feeling the DOMs now! LOL!

 

Workout of the Day:  ‎”The Girls Revenge”

“Fran”, 21-15-9 (As many reps as possible in 3 minutes)

  • Thrusters @ 95lbs
  • Pullups

 

Rest 3 minutes

 

“Annie”, 50,40,30,20,10 (As many reps as possible in 3 minutes)

  • Double Unders
  • Situps

 

Rest 3 minutes

 

“Grace”, (As many reps as possible in 3 minute)

  • Clean & Jerk  @ 135 lbs

 

Athletes complete 3 minutes each of the benchmark workouts for total reps.  Rest 3 minutes rest between workouts and add total reps for a final score.

 

My score tonight was:

 

Fran = 90 reps (2:52 New PR!) 
Annie = 175 reps 
Grace = 26 reps
Total reps was 291

LOL! Thanks Chris. Felt pretty awesome tonight. I’m sure it was the adrenaline from finally hitting one of my goals on my list… but a little bit of beast mode definitely helped.
