SWOD- Snatch 3x3

I took this to mean "full squat snatch" not power snatch, so I worked on those today..
Started out light to get some flexibility going. I progressed as follows:
65x3 (warm up), 65x3 (warm up), 95x3, 115x3, 125x3 (failed on 2nd rep, hit 3rd rep)

These are a major major goat of mine, but this was a good short strength session just to get some more reps under my belt. Flexibility did not feel too bad today, its mostly about balance per usual once the bar is overhead..

WOD- 5 Rounds for time:
Run 200m
20 Pull ups
Run 200m
20 Push ups
Run 200m
20 Sit ups
Run 200m
20 Squats

Time 32:20

Fun workout, definitely a marathon, not a sprint. I got out to a great start through the first segment of pull ups and push ups, but my sit ups are always a little slow. I think my first round was in around 5 minutes, so they got progressively slower after that..
On the runs I really need to find a way to push myself to that next level on sprints.. I sort of get into my "pace" really quickly and leave a lot in the tank.. Evidenced by the fact that my last two sprints were probably as fast as my first one.. My middle ones were way too conservative to put up a competitive time.
Great WOD though, classic CrossFit at its finest.
