I was sore this morning from the past two days.  I had to walk on the treadmill this morning for a little while to stretch out my legs before I started lifting.  I am trying to get used to the front squats so I was just using a bar that already had weight on it in the gym.  The deadlifts felt better than expected.  I was surprised that I didn't feel sore at all once I got going. 

WOD #2

3 Rounds of:
6 Thrusters, 95 lbs.
12 KB Swings, 55lbs.
24 Lateral Hurdle Jumps, 24 in. hurdle

Time 4:54

Power Clean: 2 x 10, 95 lbs.

Thrusters: 3 x 10, 95 lbs.

Front Squat: 1 x 20, 95 lbs.

I went back into the gym tonight to work on the second workout of the Union Games that was just released today.  My time for three rounds was pretty high as there were a lot of breaks included.  We get 12 minutes on Saturday and I am hoping to get a minimum of 6 full rounds in.

I spent the rest of the night just trying to get used to holding the bar on the thrusters and front squats.  My front squats felt really good as I got 20 unbroken, as opposed to about 4 or 5 yesterday with Tony.
