DT

This was harder than I thought it would be.
As Rx'd it was
5 rounds at 155 lbs
12 dead lifts
9 power cleans
6 push jerks
I saw that at Crossfit Fury's site only 2 people did it at the Rx weight, so I realized my limitations and did it at the first scaled weight of 145. That lasted through the power cleans of the first round. I then stripped off the 5's and stuck with 135 for the rest. 17:41

The deadlifts were a metcon, but not too hard, the power cleans were the killer, after having done all those deadlifts. My grip began to fail, so that limited some of my sets. I should have pushed through the sets of 6 jerks, but let myself rest too much. This wasn't my best day, but still a good WoD. Had I tried 155, it would have been a strength day and taken me nearly 30 minutes. maybe next time.
