Yesterday was a blast. We decided to substitute sprints for the rowing in the workout. I saw a huge improvement overall by doing the technique focused drills prior to the sprints. It was really great to see some of our older athletes sprinting along side our younger athletes.

WOD For those not attending Saturday’s Monthly Challenge:
“Angie”
100 pullups
100 pushups
100 situps
100 squats

WOD For everyone attending Saturday’s Monthly Challenge:
5 rounds for time:
20 double unders
10 tire flips

WOD:
Row 750 meters
75 Wall Balls
Row 500 meters
50 Wall Balls
Row 250 meters
25 Wall Balls

Results: We had the A.M. class do the workout with sprints as a substitution for the row. The P.M. classes focused on the sprints first and then did “Karen” after a few minutes break. Everyone did real good with the sprinting and afterward there was a few PR’s set with the “Karen” workout. Good job everyone!
