Today was a great workout. I saw part C a while ago and have always wanted to give it a go. I had a great time slogging through it. I was really surprised by how fit I felt and by the fact that I never 'hit a wall' given the long time domain of this workout. Overall a really fun morning in the gym, had a great time.

A.
On the 1:30 for 7 Sets:
Pausing Snatch Deadlift
Low Hang Squat Snatch (Drop Bar From Overhead)
Squat Snatch

Build to a moderate, not heavy load. Focus on speed and technique

-135#, 135#, 155#, 155#, 175#, 175#, 185# ... great warm-up for the posterior chain.

B.
Snatch
On the Minute x 9 – 1 Repetition
Minute 1 – 74% (185#)
Minute 2 – 77% (195#)
Minute 3 – 80% (205#)
Repeat this cycle (2) additional times for the 9:00.

-Complete ... hit all of these reps very easily, really fun moving these lighter loads and feeling very fast and in good positions.

C.

“Regional Glen”
For Time:
30 Power Clean and Jerks (225/155#)
1 Mile Run
10 Legless Rope Climbs
1 Mile Run
100 Barbell Facing Burpees

-43:38 ... approximate splits were:

10:30 for C+J
18:30 (8:00) 1 Mile Run
25:30 (7:00) minutes for RC
33:00 (8:00) 1 Mile Run
10 minutes for burpees

Overall I was really happy with this, I was very consistent throughout this and never fell off of my pace. I was intimidated by this, but in retrospect I moved through  it very well and comfortably. All of this was within my wheelhouse. 10 x Legless RC were the toughest part. Looking forward to training tomorrow.
