Total time was 23:34, which is a PR. Round 1: 4:14
Round 2: 4:56
Round 3: 4:54
Round 4: 4:50
Round 5: 4:41

And now...a few notes. I did this WOD at CHS over MY lunch break. That was NOT lunch for the school. It was during a Jr. High P.E. class. I am clearly an idiot.

The teacher was Dan. He was cool with me lifting in the corner by the door b/c "The kids are just playing ladder golf and they won't need that corner." This sounded great! I'm clearly an idiot.

I waited to start until they were done with their warm-up stuff...idiot. During the warm-up they were at least not throwing golf balls around the gym. Then I started...I'm clearly an idiot.

I got back from the first run and came into the gym...and there are just golf balls flying everywhere because of COURSE you don't TRY to hit the ladder, you try to hit your friends! That's so much more fun! Also, I hadn't given enough thought to the idea that jr. high boys do not stand still and have no concept of being aware of space. Therefore, there were wiggly little kids all over the place, as well as golf balls careening everywhere...but I PR'ed mostly because I was afraid of dropping the weight on some kid and because I just wanted to be DONE!

I got 10 and 5 on the OHS every round. I did have one snatch that I wasted in round 2, because there was a wiggle-worm too close so I just put the weight back down. Sigh...

Nice job on the PR . . . and I laughed as soon as I remembered it was ladder golf day.
