Old School CF WOD

Today was a good old-fashioned style WOD.  Seems like we used to have so many more workouts with this format.  Tons of running and a couple of elements in between, where you have to set a pace and stay with it.  I miss this type of workout and wish we did more of them.  I feel like I'd be in better shape.  But whatever.  It was fun.

I know it didn't look like I was having fun during the workout, but I was.  I kept a positive attitude through the entire thing (thank you Breck, for the occasional reminders).

Rest 2min

“Finisher”
30 Burpees for time

My time:  35:41, RX!

I had taken a look at the workout as it was written and calculated that it would take me somewhere around 38 minutes to finish.  Much to my surprise, I finished quite a bit sooner than that.  Pretty proud of that, even though some people finished before the 20 minute mark.  Stephanie!  Geez!

I did NOT want to do the finisher.  But I had so much "encouragement" I couldn't walk away.  Jennifer and B stayed around to make sure I finished.  I would not want B as a coach - she would kill me!! Ha ha! 

My time on the 30 burpees:  4:07

All in all, a fun morning, and I didn't even mind not doing barbell work!
