115# - 2:30

I always enjoy Grace. It's amazing how exhausting 30 reps can be. One of these days I'll get sub 2:00.

Great job finishing up fundamentals this morning, Jarrod. You did very well on your first Grace as well. Keep up the hard work.

3:12 w/ 65#

Sprints were "fun" as well - got 8 sec and 10 sec on my 50m and 18 sec and 20 sec on the 100m - I can feel my running getting better and better.

Also stayed and practiced some handstands and pull-ups. Did one handstand push-up and was able to hold a handstand for 4 seconds away from the wall - no support - I know, ONLY 4 seconds, but without the support of the wall, that's a first for me, and it was after 30 clean and jerks ;) AND I got 4 in a row pull-ups on the purple band. :)

It was fun to workout with the 5am crew this morning - Bruce and LaDonnah are sure going to be missed!!!
