Fun race Gabe! This is a tough one, but I think if I was a little more time conscious I could have finished the clusters. DU were pretty good today, first 59 unbroken (3 rep PR) and I finally feel like I’m getting better at pacing and breathing while skipping.
Great morning, thanks Amanda!
To all the trainers taking on Mount Katahdin this weekend: have a blast and good luck!! 🙂
Oh and QOD: that’s a tough one – part of me would love to see the WODS in advance to better plan my work/gym schedule…and knowing in advance may give me a better idea for rest days (I tend not to rest when there are great looking workouts I don’t want to miss – and that can be really tough on the body). At the same time – the element of committing to the unknown is such a big part of crossfit…I feel like it just adds to the trust we put in our coaches.
I agree Cara it would help plan better to make sure you got rest time and some good WOD’s and well rounded strengths in but… the element of surprise is exciting too, in the end I don’t think I need to know a week ahead.

so crazy!! And so strong. Great job on the wod @ 95#!
Thanks Heather! I just kept a slow and steady pace with 1 rep at a time and it worked out. Your pullups were looking fantastic in warm up 🙂

QOD – if I see the workout in the morning, and I’m working out in the afternoon/evening…it is all I think about about. That is why I love morning classes. I crawl out of bed, put my gym clothes on, and head out the door. No thinking. With that being said, I would not want to see the WODs a week in advance. I’d drive myself crazy.

I like not knowing until the morning of. Forces me to rest and eat healthy beforehand in case today is a big hard one so I can perform like I want to.

Always prepared……just like a Boy Scout 🙂
Great work getting to the MU’s.

QOD: I don’t want to know too far before hand – I just need enough time so I get the right pants on so they aren’t falling down if we’re skipping, so on the way to bed the night before works just fine. I often don’t look at the site on my rest days because if it’s a good wod I’m likely to make a bad decision and ignore the “rest” part of rest day
Clusters to 110 (115F)
Wod @ 75#
22 clusters
At one point in the clusters I thought I could get to the pull-ups, but this is an unforgiving beast of a wod. It requires smooth sailing through the du’s and a solid love of burpees, so maybe next time.
Hope there’s good weather on Mt K for those ambitious (read “crazy”) enough to try it. Have fun, be safe, see you next week!!
Heidi
I hear ya Sister on the “right pants”. I’ve shorts I don’t wear when I’m skipping, shirts I don’t like for cleans (bruised collar bone), pants that need to cover me knees for burpees, etc., etc…..I could go on & one.
You killed this WOD Heather. 22 clusters. No Joke.
QOD: I also like knowing the night before 🙂 Since I usually do 6am classes and get dressed in the dark, I get my clothes ready the night before and like to know what pants to wear 😉 I think knowing a week ahead would be too much to think about.

I like that CrossFit is about being ready for anything. This makes the sport unique, and therefore I would not opt to see the schedule a week in advance.
Thanks for coaching today Amanda. The cross legged campfire time at the end was nice! 🙂

QOD: No because I might chicken out if something is “scary”. By knowing only at 10 the night before, it’s more difficult because my lunch and bags (for school) are ready and the next day’s schedule is already prepped in my head.

QOD I prefer not knowing the WOD – to the point of occasionally no looking on site the day of my class. But If there are strength progression training ( like the multi-day deadlift training to a new PR) or skill training – I would like to know ahead of time so that I could classes on the right days.

I think I paced too much on the clusters. If I had 5 extra seconds to catch my breath I would have been able to brace in my MU attempt. lol. Mein those burpees were horrendous. Although, now I don’t feel so bad about how violent I’m bout to get on some sushi 😀
Thanks Ron,
Great job ery’one.
Oh QOD: I’m meh, fine with either. For the first month when I joined, Kevin had sent me the link directly to zen planner and I never bothered to navigate anywhere past that; so I just came to every WOD blind not even knowing that it used to be posted at midnight :D.
