Limiting factor was core...my abs are still fried from those GHD situps. Lower back is pretty tight as well, since I'm an idiot and decided to just do the GHD situps even though it was already tweaked. Hopefully it'll loosen up soon.

Not as rx'd (feet on barbell in squat rack) - 5:09 (19 seconds off PR.)

I'm pissed. I don't feel I'm at the point of fitness yet where I shouldn't expect to PR everytime. I guess on some level I realize this is unreasonable, but it's hard to deal with.

Clean 135#
Ring Dips
Ax rx'd - 9:49

I want to dedicate my effort tonight to the living memory of Mr.Attebury, who was my Tang Soo Do Instructor for a very long time, starting when I was about four. He passed away from stomach cancer five years ago today, at only 45 years of age. He was an incredible person and I would not have been who I am today without him.

9:49 is not stellar, but it is a PR.

We miss you, Sir.

"Murph"
For time:
Run 1 mile
100 pullups
200 pushups
300 squats
Run 1 mile

Partition pullups, pushups, and squats as needed. If you've got a 20# vest or body armor, wear it.

As rx'd (no vest): 50:59. I suck at running. I broke up the pullups pushup and squats as follows: 20 rounds of 4 pullups, 8 pushups, 12 squats, then 4 rounds of 5 pullups, 10 pushups, 15 squats.

This sucked. A lot.

Fair winds, Murph.
