Row hell

Im going to lead off and say I never saw that negative splits comment on the white board.  I am also going to say as bad as this looked on paper it was made worse by Steve Mammone convincing Callahan that the score was the calories on the final row.  Yep it hurt.

2k Row

Anthony needed some rabbits to chase for a 2k Row.   We had a good turnout - Dennis O, Rob P, Tom G, and Mark.   Anthony gave us a 45 second head start.  I was pretty tired so wasnt expecting any kind of PR but I always hope something spectacular will happen.   My plan was to pace my first 500 and go from there.  I thought I did but still couldnt sustain it and had the wheels fall off in the last 500.  Better pacing but still not good enough.  Way off my PR.   I would like to keep doing this to see if I can improve.

Row Chipper

Anthony DeMusis absolutely crushed this WOD. He hammered the first row and we never saw him again. I think he was home and showered and back in his PJs before we even finished.  Lots of bodies lying on the ground.  Would be fun to try this @155 and then again at @95.

10 Calorie Row
10 Clusters, 135/95 

Time: 26:29


what’s a cluster?!, it’s a combination of a clean and a thruster. The most efficient and proper way to move through this was to catch your clean and the bottom of your squat, so you could immediately thruster that weight up.

 Im going to keep doing some longer wods to build up my endurance.

Cascade my hike

Rallied Jack to join Bob and I on a hike to Cascade Mt. It is over 4k ft and one of the 46.  The day was much warmer in the 50's but still expected it to be cold on top. 

The trail was both muddy and icy but completely passable.  We passed one big group early in hike but mostly saw people coming down even though we started much earlier than we did the day before. 

Very warm on the way up we were all just in our base layer but once we hit the open ledge the wind was howling. I ran ahead and it was completely effortless as the wind pushed me.  I quickly put two more layers on.  I watched as Jack took his glove off the take a photo and it flew away over the side of the mountain.  Spectacular views but so windy it was hard to breathe so we quickly went down.
