AM stuff felt good.  I figured out that I could do pistols a few weeks ago and ever since that moment its been an awesome path of discovery.  I keep surprising myself with my ability to do more and more pistols as they are programmed.  On this workout I finally feel like I honed my 'pistol craft' I was able to do awesome pistols consistently every rep for all of the sets...this again was exciting.  The pull ups I was nervous for...there wasn't an entire minute to rest this time and more pull ups, but I did it...the last set was really hard but I was able to hang on for the entire set!

PM...whoa suckfest...my front squats failed me first!  I went for a 125# for a tough 3 on my power cleans and man my rounds were tougher and tougher...not only with my cleans but dang if my front squats didn't kill me.  The burpees were definitely a manageable number.  I felt fast and good with burpees.  Unfortunately I had to run upstairs to do my row which killed my legs!  Each round took me about 2:24 to complete thats including how long it took me to get up to the rower, I'm thinking about :20s to get to the rower.  The last round took way longer as I failed on 2nd, 4th, and 5th reps.  I finally completed my cleans on my 6th attempt and then my squats were rough.

16 days to Taranis...
