I like EMOTM workouts and snatching, so this was a good one. I thought I could get to 115#, but as expected the hanging snatches were the bottleneck. I could get the bar plenty high enough, but I could not get under it fast enough. I need to warm up a long time to do Olympic lifts, and usually we don’t have that kind of time during a normal class. The power snatch was easy at 105#, as was the OHS (well, I needed to warm that up more too).

I was doing a PR pace of around 1:31 during the first row for the first 300m, but I forgot to tuck my shirt in, so it kept getting caught in the seat railings which totally cramped my style, so I did not really push to break my record of 1:39 (or maybe 1:38?). I was totally gassed though and the second was a whopping ten seconds slower, which was embarassing as the next class (which I helped coach) people did much better than I on their second rows (quite a few even beat their times).
