Disheartening

It is always disheartening when you have a goal in mind and do not even come close to it. Today was "Fran" Josh text me with his time this morning and my goal was to better his time (he will post his time later), well I did not even come close. Here is Fran
21-15-9 reps
95lb Thrusters (which is a front squat with an overhead press)
pullups
Time= 19min 30secs (terrible)
I love Josh's post on confronting your weakness my right scapula and shoulder need work bad. I gave it a good run but towards the end I could only manage 1 thruster at a time and had to set it down as I was tired and my shoulder could not push consecutively. I think I wasted alot of energy cleaning the weight back to a front squat position. Pullups are becoming easier for me as I am getting the kipping technique down and was able to complete the reps in one go. I need to keep reminding myself that I am new to this style of training and it is going to take time. Josh made a comment "Sub 2 is insane" Hell, 6:17 is insane (sorry Josh)
