Getting Regionals Ready

Tuesday, Dec. 29:

The whole gym is a twitter with Regionals fever. About 10 of us have signed up for the Regionals in March. It's time to clean up the diet and increase the WOD weight. As a little hat tip to all of the preparation we're getting ready to do, we did two of the workouts that they held for last year's regionals.

WOD I:
2,000 meter row
8:59.3

This is NOT the thing you want to see the first day back from the holidays. I was slow and sluggish. Kept around 2:10 500 meter pace for the first 3:30 but then I dropped to a 2:17 and even got up to a 2:25 at one point. When we retest, I'd really like to stick below a 2:15. I think I could cut my time back exponentially.

WOD II:
3 rounds for time
10 deadlifts
50 double unders
11:08

Ugh! I got loud on this one. Felt good and bad at the same time.
