-19:55 ... this was much faster than 2015, but I had just done a 30 minute AMRAP prior to the workout in 2015 ... overall I was happy with my time and effort today ... definitely felt the last couple days of training, but once I got moving I was fairly consistent on this.

11/07/26

Today was, overall, a solid workout ... I was feeling a bit beat-up going into this. This week was a test week to see if I could handle an olympic lifting program on top of my current crossfit training ... frankly it felt like too much this week. Having said that, I am going to dial back the olympic lifting and try a different 3 day a week program ... the program I attempted to layer on my crossfit was 6 days a week! I think a 3 day a week program is much more realistic for me. Anyway, I am glad I at least tried to get in this olympic lifting program... but I really think it wouldn't be a good idea to continue unless I really dialed back my crossfit training volume.
