  1. damn. i’ve thrown up both times I’ve done this wod. damn. damn .damn

  2. I couldn’t put it off any longer so I met Fran again this AM.
    10:21 (previous PR 11:23)

    Thrusters much better 10/6/5; 6/5/4; 5/4
    Pullups 2-3 at a time.

    • nice!

  3. 7:54
    Previous PR 7:13 from Janauary.

    Today I used the black band for pullups. I’ve been using red+tiny. Tiny wasn’t available and the black band seemed about the same as red+tiny. In January, I used blue+tiny.

    Thrusters were strong. Unbroken on 21 and 9. R15 was broken 8/7. This is same as last time, but I felt stronger on these than in January. I lost time on the pullups today…couldn’t string many together today.

    • Awesome!!!

    • Damn, them’s some awesome thrusters!

  4. 17:01

    Okay, this was super slow, but Laura tells me I get to not be disappointed because the thrusters at 60 lbs were 12 lbs heavier than last time we did Fran in January. On the first round I was down to two at a time. Used the new red band for pullups and probably could have gone with the old red, but it would have taken…even…longer. :)

    • I disagree that this was “super slow.” The problem is that EVERYONE ELSE IS GOING WAY TOO FAST. Show-offs.

  5. Rx: 9:00
    4:25 improvement from Jan 9, 2010

    • nice! I so want to do Fran today, but think we will focus on the Team WODs….

    • Wow, impressive!

  6. Rx at 9:02 not bad considering the burn in my legs from yesterday’s heavy squats by five. 2 minute PR.

  7. Saw the posted wods for regionals. I think our affiliate team is going to do just great and you as well Laura! Sounds like you’re going to kill some of those individual wods! I’m EXCITEDDDDDDDDDD

    • Are you coming?

      • nope! I wish. Not really a smart move financially for me. Pobre.

        • lo siento…comprendo….

  8. fun Power Hour today playing with Fran…thanks again Bryan & Buddy for letting my jump in with you guys & to Kelly for lifting some heavy stuff afterwards while i made-up yesterday’s backsquats (never much fun lifting alone…PR’d on both wods)

    also, Individual & Team Regional WODS are printed out and posted under the weight-conversion chart so everyone can check out what’s on the menu ;-)

    • Totally excited for the weekend! With the time cut-offs, these are gonna be really tough!

      • you all are going to KILL IT down there!…after watching how hard all of you train in “the box”, i’d hate to be your competition out there in “the wild”!! ;-) now GO Get IT! (and send us stuck in the ATL a twitter update now-n-then)

  9. As predicted by two out of three coaches, I am very awfully extremely wildly terribly madly hideously sore. I may rest today. Still haven’t decided …

  10. 6:36

    Felt strong the for first set but that feeling left all too quickly. Laura and Nick, thanks for pushing me.

    • Fantastic time!

    • OMG…animal! :-)

    • You looked awesome!

  11. Last time I did this Rx in 9:56, but my bum shoulder balked at the Rx weight today so I used 88 lbs and did it in 7:12. According to the power output calculator that’s still a PR for me.

    • like!

  12. OMG! I thought I had died after the rows tonight….but a good PR…not exactly sure what it was but somewhere close to1:50-ish…for a shortie, that’s not bad :)
    Will send pics from Jax!

    • I so agree w/ Therese on this… the row sprint is alot harder than I ever thought. I hit a PR too (1:36 on the first 500) but the 2nd 500 was probably much worse. I don’t think I’ve felt that kind of burn, well, ever…

      Off to Jacksonville (via Chicago!). See ya there!

    • Um. Yeah. Don’t know what else to say other than agree, agree, agree. CRAZY HARD! Anyone know our total time for the 3000?

  13. I thought I saw 11:05 at the end of our rows, but then again I also thought I saw both of my legs light up in flames about the same time, so I don’t know which one was real, if either.

    • that was supposed to be responding to Sheryl’s question…

      • hmmm, flaming legs…no more posting after midnight for you ;-)

        Good luck down South everyone!!

  14. 15:29 (red band, 76 lbs)

  15. Second full Fran. Last time 13:33 or something this time as rx 9:14.

    Didn’t really warm up and shoulders did not want to work on first 14 thrusters. I can definitely go faster.

  16. 11:54 RX

    Woohoo! First time ever doing Fran RX.

  17. 9:59….Thanks to Trish.

  18. 55# thrusters
    tiny band for pull-ups

    21:41

    Was just glad to be done!
