“Fran” – 6:01 Rx [PR]. (Thrusters: 21, 7/8, 9; Pull Ups: 14/7, 10/5, 8/1)

need to get faster on the thrusters and the last set of pull-ups should have been unbroken. PRd by over a minute so good progress.
- Rap Tue 08.18.2015 at 7:58am
  
  Nice Zev. Great work.
- Willis Tue 08.18.2015 at 8:13am
  
  Minute+ PR is no joke… Killing!
- Erica Tue 08.18.2015 at 12:22pm
  
  Imagine how fast you’d be if you danced before the wod!
Scott Tue 08.18.2015 at 8:27am

Fran: 7:22 Rx., PR. 10:22 last time Rx. Need to work on pull ups. Kip needs some serious work as after three I pretty much am doing strict. Thrusters felt good if that is possible. Great time with the 5:30 today.
- Willis Tue 08.18.2015 at 9:48am
  
  3 minute PR? Awesome!
- Rap Tue 08.18.2015 at 10:41am
  
  Whoa.. that’s a huge PR Scott!
- Erica Tue 08.18.2015 at 12:23pm
  
  Wow!
Pete Tue 08.18.2015 at 8:57am

Sounds like a freaking party this morning! Good job everyone and happy bday Kathy! Zev, any regrets about the tabata handstands yesterday? 🙂
- zdn Tue 08.18.2015 at 9:46am
  
  nope. i do regret being old
mariamaramag Tue 08.18.2015 at 10:44am

Fran – 6:10 RX (PR) – unbroken thrusters in round of 21 and 9, round of 15 (7-4-4). Butterfly pull-ups mostly all fast sets of 3 which magically saved my grip. (thank you Mel! that was genius!) Last time i did this in January, wasnt even RX slower and less weight and reps! — “6:57 55# strict pull ups 12/9/5 “. Then tried to do WOD 1 of Masters COMP. Snatches and TTB – Tara you killed it! i had nothing left!
- Rap Tue 08.18.2015 at 12:27pm
  
  Love that you did this with more weight and faster than last time! Getting strong Maria! Great PR.
Sara C Tue 08.18.2015 at 10:47am

8:07 rx. That’s gotta be about a 4 minute pr, but it’s been years since I’ve done this rx. When we did this last June it took me 8:31 at 45#. Mental victory today. Thrusters unbroken for 21 and 9, 8/7 for 15. Pull-ups 6/5/5/5, 5/5/5, 3/3/2/1.
- britt Tue 08.18.2015 at 11:20am
  
  Awesome lady!
- Rap Tue 08.18.2015 at 12:26pm
  
  4 minutes is enough time for another WOD! Great job.
britt Tue 08.18.2015 at 10:50am

7:36. 45#, red band.
Somehow I have avoided Fran for almost 2 years. Last time: 12/9/13 7:30 35#, med band jumping pull-ups.
When I do this again (in 2 more years) it better be without a band.
- Mel Tue 08.18.2015 at 11:43am
  
  It will be! Woo hoo Britt!
smfoley38 Tue 08.18.2015 at 11:45am

7:02 55# 21 unbroken 15- 9/6 9 unbroken PU’s set’s of 5 and 6 Not a PR. My form was so much better then it has been in the past with FRAN.
Eric Tue 08.18.2015 at 12:11pm

7:32 (65#, deficit RR for pullups). 1st date with Fran, so PR.
Erica Tue 08.18.2015 at 12:33pm

6:07 rx. 24sec PR. Not feeling my best today so very happy to beat my last time. Thrusters 21, 10/5, 9. Pull ups 11/5/5, 5/5/5, 5/4.
- Bill Tue 08.18.2015 at 1:40pm

Lisa Tue 08.18.2015 at 4:02pm

So SAD I missed today!! Kathy’s birthday, big PRs for so many people, WOW!
I have been coming down with a cold and woke up this morning feeling much worse, so I stayed home to rest and to not infect any of you all 🙂 And I had been looking forward to see my improvements on Fran, oh well… next time.
Will probably still rest tomorrow and see you all on Thursday.
- Rap Tue 08.18.2015 at 10:54pm
  
  Smart to listen to your body and thanks for not contaminating us. Now get better and get back in the box! 🙂
