Not used to this

This was only the third time in the last year that I haven't set a PR on a repeated WoD. I tried Karen (150 wall ball shots for time) this morning. I used a 12-inch box to make sure I was going to full depth each rep. I didn't do that last time, so this was a true starndardized test. I did it in 10:33 and last time was 10:14. I'm not sure what happened. I got the first 50 3 minutes, but things got dicey from there. I didn't every really stop for a long period, but I had to chop things up too much. I should have pushed through the lactic acid burn more than I did, but I still feel like I lost a minute or two in there somewhere.

This has been a rough week. Ryan killed me, the du and situp wod got me frustrated, I blacked out during yesterday's PP and now this. I'm not sure if I need a recovery period, but this is getting old. I'm trying to not get too discouraged and just evaluate what the problem might be. Maybe the problem is that I need to work on some of these other skills and spend less time in my comfort zone with the barbell stuff. Not sure but I hope I figure it out soon.
