I didn't want to do strength only, since I am supplementing strength on many other days, so i did a WoD I found on another site (cannot remember where).
3 rounds
21 pushups
21OHS 95 lbx
21 SDHP
400m run
22:13 - this time isn't entirely accurate and only serves as a reference point for later.  Why?
Well...
the gym was crazy busy and I had to pause once or twice to allow for the lady doing walking lunges behind me to pass without hitting her in the head with a snatch.  Then, on the first run, I hit the little magnet off the t-mill and couldn't get it started again.  I kept the metcon going, but only got in 45 seconds for the first run.  The total elapsed time was about the same, but not a full run. 
Aside from that, this WoD sucked.  I was able to do all pushups unbroken, but the 2 bar exercises were killers.  I couldn't hit a rhythm with the OHS.  I have done 20 reps consecutive with 95 pounds before, but had to break this up into 3 and 4 sets on each round.  then the SDHP right after killed my back.  the OHS were off balance, so I overcompensated with my back.  It was hard to keep good form with the SDHP as a result.  When I got to the run, I was totally gassed.  I did round one at 8.5, two at 8.5 and 3 at 7.5, mostly because I was worried i would fall off the t-mill. 
I need to work on OHS more (as with all overhead lifts).  My grip kept slipping, making the static UE hold harder as time passed.  But any WoD that includes a goat is a good one.  I can count on progress being made for next time.
