I redid 26.1 on Monday with the intent of taking a few more risks and trying to give myself more time to finish the second set of 40 wall balls. I did! give myself more time - I got about 45-50 extra seconds, which meant I made another 17 wall balls, and finished with a score of 264 reps. which I'm extremely happy with. that put me comfortably in the top 10% in the region, which is huge for me on a workout that was not typically something I would do well at.
and then on Friday I did 26.2 which was
with a 15 kg dumbbell. I was pretty happy about this - my ring muscle ups are not pretty but they are consistent and serviceable. I knew I wasn't going to finish - I don't have 20 RMUs in me at the moment - but I knew I was going to get through the first parts pretty comfortably and give myself at least 10 min to get some muscle ups. I told everyone I wanted 10 haha, and I got them in 5 sets of 2! which, honestly, I only got because a) I've had ring muscle ups in various states of quality for nearly 10 years, and b) I'm very strong. I haven't done one in months, but I can kind of trust I have a handful in the bank at any time. so that's bumped me up the leaderboard a fait bit, as expected. at the moment I'm within to top 200 in the region, but I'm expecting that to drop a little as people redo, but I feel pretty confident that I'll stay in the top 10%. no need for me to repeat this one, I'm not going to magically find any more muscle ups in the next 12 hours haha.
I went effectively unbroken on the lunges and snatches (only put the DB down to change hands on the lunges but didn't really stop moving). I went 8-6-6 on the pullups and 6-5-5-4 on the chest to bar pull ups, and I think that was perfect for me.
I only need to be in the top 25% in the region to make it to quarter finals, but I've been in the top 10% every year since 2017, so I'd really like to keep my streak! this year is looking very consistent - usually I have an event where I place in the 80-85th percentile, and that's usually the grunt work event, but this year the grunt work one went quite well for me!
I'd like some handstand push ups in 26.3 #manifestation
hello. it's the CrossFit Open again so I will be posting.
I did 26.1 this morning which was
so EXTREMELY leggy. I was a bit nervous about it but felt like I had a pretty good plan to break up the wall balls. ended up with 247 reps, which was 19 wall balls into the second round of 40.
I'll redo on Monday or Tuesday, and I think my only change would be to move very slightly faster on the earlier wall ball sets because I'd really like to finish the second round of 40.
Two years ago I ran the St. Jude Marathon to raise money for children's cancer research. This year I'm doing it again. My training has been spotty but I'm going none the les because I know the money we raise is important. Please consider donating to St. Jude. You can find my fundraising link below. 100% of donations go to helping find a cure for childhood cancer. https://fundraising.stjude.org/site/TR?px=2538836&pg=personal&fr_id=105980 #stjude #marathon #26point1 #bettertoday #givingback #cancersucks (at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1b2bE8gL0J/?igshid=njfeho9lk254
