Steve and I worked on back squats prior to class and Will is still doing burpees.
I was pleased with my WOD this morning, especially after the WOD mess from yesterday. My rowing was good, coming in second to Will on the first round. KB Swings were solid with the 35lb KB. Did jumping pull ups. The pull ups were the weak point this morning. I came in behind Will and Brett which is pretty good.

Eating—Checked the scale and got 236 so the scale is playing with me, as it always does. Still focused on 234 or less on Monday.
What hurts today—Right hip was really tight this morning but did not impact the WOD. Ankles much better after being really bad yesterday.
One Year Ago—Rowing PR
Great morning to be out early, 38 degrees. At Crossfit for 6AM class. Just Eric and I with Brian coaching.Good results this morning. Brian worked with Eric and I individually on the things we suck at which were Ring Dips for Eric and Pull Ups for me. I made my first kipping Pull Up which was a goal that Brian had set for me. Of course now the goal changes to doing more than 1 in a row.
We decided to try setting a new PR for the 2000K Row and both Eric and I set a new one.

I ran across this picture about gloves. When I saw it I thought about the big gloves we wear in Self Defense when using the sticks. I know this quote is about gloves with bars. I always wear the gloves in self defense…regardless of the color of my purse.
