I went to Madison to spend time with my family for Christmas, and of course I made an effort to go in and see Kief and Em, the amazing people who own CrossFit Connex! Love those two. I ended up wodding solo with Emily on Saturday, which was amazing! And she kicked my ass.
Our WOD was the following:
21/15/9
Power Snatches/OHS/Squat Snatches (95lbs)
Burpees
Pull Ups
She’s a Regionals athlete (whaaaaat, yes she’s amazing!) So she finished all her sets unbroken in like, under 8 min. I kept going.. and kept going and kept going. I did banded pull ups for my first and second sets, and did RX kipping pull ups for my last set. I finished in 18 minutes. Holy hell, it was rough but it was awesome!
