"GRACE"
30 Clean & Jerks 135#, for time
I have not done Grace in a while, last time was a really nice PR of 2:53.. I was hoping to beat that.. But just was not totally dialed in today.
I don't like excuses in general, but I do have "loose reasons" why today was not a great day to continue my PR streak this week.. I ate shitty last night, I slept lousy, I did the Filthy Fifty as fast as I could last night, and I woke up at 530AM to WOD, which I never do.
I seriously give props to my morning people I get to coach on Tuesdays and Thursdays, for real. I do not know how they do it. I can teach, be peppy, and do whatever else in the morning, but for the life of me I am not a good early morning WOD-er.. Just never quite feels right, not enough blood flow going, and not enough calories in me yet.
Anyhow, I did this in 3:18 Rx'd.. which is not completely awful, but definitely not as well as I can do. I did the first 10 reps pretty quickly, and then my back started to tighten up, my form went to hell, and my grip went to hell.. Perfect storm of bullshitty little factors messing me all up. I went to singles way too early, usually when I do this WOD I can do bigger sets the whole time..
I did 8-2-2-2-2-1-1-1-1-1-... all the way up to 30..
I did 8-2-2-2-2-1-1-1-1-1-... all the way up to 30..
When I do this again, I want to try to do something more like 10-5-3-3 and then coast in with singles, I feel like that would be totally manageable if I had some good circumstances.
