this litterally gives me nightmares…and its not even til tomorrow…*shudder*
#2 written by becky 2 years ago

this is just evil…reading the “how to do a 2K” did not make me feel more prepared.
#3 written by Basil 2 years ago

i actually don’t mind rowing, its one of the few things i am half way good at.
#4 written by B. Kiddo 2 years ago

I on the other hand, Basil, suck at it. I would so rather run 1 1/2 miles. I am not looking forward to this.
#5 written by Lori F 2 years ago

yes, well, the row WAS a drag. Disappointingly, i hit the exact same time as last time – ~9:30. oh well.

Clean n jerks were good, though – PR’ed at 115lbs! yeah!
#6 written by Rachel 2 years ago

I wouldn’t call it enjoyable, but it’s only the second WOD I’ve been able to do as RX’d. Also, first time I’ve rowed 2k, so instant PR!
#7 written by Sabah 2 years ago

It was a good welcome back workout for me. 6:15 class was good but I don’t think I can wake up for it again for a long time
#8 written by lindsay hill 2 years ago

so i guess we will put off the mud run till next year, or like becky said, there is mud, or mud to be made in front of the box.

sleep monster got me today so i missed the workout…although i am not sure if i am very upset about it.

Bea, just look at it Rachel’s way — automatic PR
#10 written by B. Kiddo 2 years ago

I looked back through my book and the only WOD that I have written “That was Horrible!!!!!” next to was one similar to this. Here is praying for a huge class so that you have to sub running for me.
#11 written by Dave Rubin 2 years ago

there will be no subs for rowing today. EVERYONE will row…..and EVERYONE will like it

Bea, you may have to row twice
#12 written by B. Kiddo 2 years ago

Oh, I love you too Dave.
#13 written by Matt H 2 years ago

subbed this for my endurance workout…..did it on my own

German volume training for strength portion: 10 x 10 @ 135 for first 5 sets dropped to 115 (shoulder press) rest 60 sec between sets

row at 7:35.8…..know I can break 7, I’m beat down right now….sunday funday can’t come soon enough

#15 written by Sara C 2 years ago

great job today 5pm class….

2k – 8:42 – (warm-up)

2k – 7:42 – WOD

ugh….need to get back to anaerobic threshhold training…

but its my first WOD Rx’d!
#16 written by Bill 2 years ago

7:15 on the row, thanks for the push Becky!
#17 written by Becky N 2 years ago

2k’s are so hard ahhhh…

8:29

C&J got to 90lbs – thanks to Dori Mandy and Jack for helping me with my form
#18 written by Basil 2 years ago

205# (power) clean and jerk
185# (Squat) clean and jerk

7:28 on the 2k, Jack said “You have the worst form I have ever seen.” I can appreciate honesty, looks like I need to work on the form so I can finish quicker than Bill next time. Thanks for Dave and others for pushing me through and I think the ten hard pulls for after every 500m break helped.
#19 written by Becky N 2 years ago

Sarah Couch – you and I should do a rowing clinic one day. We could talk about form and pacing a 2k and coxing. It would be fun
#20 written by Sara C 2 years ago

sounds good to me
#21 written by Melinda 2 years ago

Yes please. Please put the rowing clinic in the suggestion box or poll or whatever. Great idea.
