CFJax.com Workout or Fran

Well, I'm going to either do the CFJax.com workout below or Fran at CrossFitNRV. I'm hoping to do the Fran since it'll be my first visit to an affiliate, but I'm not sure if I can get out of work early for it (they train at 3:30).

If I end up making it to CFNRV, I'll do the CFJax.com workout tomorrow.

Well, I made it to CrossFit NRV today & it was a blast! Did Fran w/45# and had sub 10min. (can't remember exact time). Last time I did Fran back in early Feb., I had a little over 10 minutes, but did 15-9-6 with 45#.

All of the people there were super nice and welcoming and it was REALLY fun to be able to drop the bar. I can't wait to start going on a weekly basis.

Then I came home and did my 38 burpees like a good girl.

p.s. I hate Fran.

"Fran" - Day 23

Today's WOD is Fran... the dreaded Fran:). I've gotta go dig through my notebook to try to find my time for the last Fran I did. It's been awhile. I'll be doing a scaled version. I'm feeling a little under the weather today... I hope I'm not coming down with anything. Time to bump up the vitamin C:).

Warm-up:
10 min. jog
5 pushups
20 ball situps
10 hspu progressions
10 KTE's (chest level)
10, 15lb. KB swings
5 ring dips (attempt) - couldn't do these... have to keep practicing
10, 10lb. thruster practice

"Fran" (scaled):
15-12-9
Thrusters, 45#
Pullups (jumping/reverse)

Time: 10:01:12

Wow, I always forget how hard this WOD is. I planned to do the scaled version on Brandx, but I couldn't do 21-15-9 in pullups. I started off the pullups using my new-fangled rings, but after 5, I found myself using my legs to do most of the work. I switched to jumping/negative pullups after the first 5.

Thrusters were great, I did 10/5 on the first round, 6/4/2 on the second, and 5/4 on the last. The pullups were broken up much more.

Update on why I feel like crap... ALLERGIES! For some reason, I always forget I have allergies and assume I'm getting sick. Hopefully after it rains tomorrow, I'll feel better.
