No Posting of Time


“Chili Pepper”

10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1  Front Squat (35lbs)
20-.40-60-80-100-60-70-80-90-100  Single Jump Ropes
*Front squats come from the ground, no racks.


Time: 60:09

Today's WOD was horrible and I was even scaled back halfway through on the jump ropes.  I even asked the coach not to post my time.  I get that HERO WOD's usually take the average person an hour but this was just a regular WOD.  If I hadn't been scaled back halfway through the jump ropes it would have taken me probably an hour and a half.  I was so glad I had the coach I had this morning as she understands me and gets me and how I feel.  She just has an approach that is compassionate but she still pushes me to do all that I can and then some.  Gosh, I miss her now that she's not coaching on a regular basis with us.  She saw how exhausted I was getting with the jump ropes and her approach to modify them was one that didn't send me further into frustration than I already was.  I was so tired and frustrated I had tears mixed in with my sweat.  I wanted to give up so badly and just quit.  I probably thought it about 50 times.  I can't honestly say I'm glad I finished this WOD.  This one was just beyond tough.
