I wonder how bad Justin is going to crush me this time?
For starters, I got 51 calories on the first row, but that just ruined me. This WOD is designed to wind the CRAP out of you. I'd love to see a games competitor go unbroken on this one. I bet there's no way.
I am pretty sure if I games this to 35 to 38 calories on the row I would definitely crush your score Fletcher, but I think it will be way more fun to buy in with at least 48 on the row. I am not sure if 51 is feasible for me cause I have no idea what kind of 500m/split that would be.
We will see how it goes tomorrow for me as I hit my CFTish wod today.
I went as hard as I could for the first minute Fletcher. I was on pace for 53 to 54 calories but then the wheels came off and I finished barely finished with 48 and staggered to the bar, I finished but is was brutal. 48/18 27/17 27/18
165
Never would have got that if Fletcher had set the bar high.
Weird man... I had a 6 point lead after round 1, but I petered out. I want to try this again, I think I can get 165 if I go like hell like my life depended on it. I wasn't mentally tough enough in rounds 2 and 3. You were! Or, you are just fitter than me.
Going second I am sure was a huge advantage, but I changed my strategy on this wod. The first 2 on 2 off I tried to not lose anytime on the rest reps and gave up time on the rower, but then I looked at my total and I realized even though it is counter intuitive, I get more points for every second on the rower that doing the other stuff, so I tried to make sure I was rowing right when the 2 minutes started and then rowed all the way until it was done.

I thought about gaming the score but I decided to row as hard as I could in the beginning and it destroyed me. Fran throat the whole time...
ReplyDeleteSo when you go tomorrow. CRUSH the first row as hard as possible... I want to see what you think. Put me on my back!

ReplyDeleteI want to go second next time, but that is no excuse! The guys in the games don't get to say that.
