Not sure if I should have kept going this morning. I figured I would stop hurting after a short time of slow running. It never did... so I walked/run until I got back to my car. This recovery is very frustrating!!! I have never had it take this long or hurt this bad!

Crossfit
4 sets of:
4 reps of Front squats (65, 85, 95, 105#)
4 reps of box jumps (30")
+
3 rounds for time:
400m row
15 thrusters (65#)
15 burpees
10 HSPU

Crossfit
7 rounds of:
10 kb sdhp (45#)
7 hang power cleans (95#)
2 rope climbs

By the end of round 2 I was shaking from exhaustion. On my 5th round I couldn't hold on to the rope any more. I almost fell both times. Round 6 and 7 I switched from rope climbs to 5 reps of pull ups. Even the pull ups were tough. Great workout!!! I will feel this one for a few days. (Prescription was 50# kb and 115# hang power cleans)
