I have had a hard time getting my training in this week. With the gym being busy, it's next to impossible to find personal time for anything. I've come to realize that I have to get in my workouts when I have time, which has proven bad for the Open.
12.2 I ended up doing twice last week. I didn't have any way to get my score validated, so I had to video the wod. Someone forgot to plug in the a/c adapter so the camera died. I got 62 reps, which I wasn't happy with.
The second attempt I got 64, which I still wasn't happy with, but I'll always accept improvement. Unfortunately, it was going to take 6 hours for the video to upload and with it being almost 4 pm on Sunday, I had no chance to get it in. So, no score submited for.
12.3 I did twice as well. First attempt was Friday at 3 o'clock. I got 7 rounds plus 15 reps. The box jumps and t2b were dreadful. I managed to get the presses almost unbroken on every set.
The second attempt was today, Saturday, at noon. I ended up with 8 rounds and 2 reps. It was the absolute opposite with the movements today. My shoulders were tired from Friday, so I struggled with the presses. The box jumps and t2b were pretty smooth and felt much better.
With it all said and done, I'll be ok with my scores in the open. I haven't been able to devote any time to training for it, and I've still done somewhat ok. I'll always think I could have done better, but I won't be as disappointed as I was last year.
It's been far more challenging doing it in a completely different environment, and feeling alone while attempting these Open workouts. I miss doing it with everyone at 2717 and having a coach to get advice from. I guess it's part of the transition.
I miss our family over there and think about em everyday. Without them I don't think God would have presented this opportunity to me and I wouldn't be where I'm supposed to be. We've gotten a lot of great people in our gym and I am truly blessed to have them, but I'll always have a special place for everybody over there.
