CFCM Invitational

Crossfit Central Manchester Invitational

WOD 1 & 2
90 secs max rep deadlift with either 80kg, 100kg or 120kg - score is total load shifted

Followed immediately by
4 rounds of
10 kb front squat, 2x20kg
10 kb rack to overhead, 2x20kg
10 kb lunges, 2x20kg
10 kb thrusters, 2x20kg
50m farmers walk, 2x20kg

This was an evil combo - finished the combo in 18:03 and managed 46 deads at 100kg. 3rd in the deadlift and 4th in the kb event had me in first place.

Next was a 10 minute CTB Cindy. 10 rounds and 7 push ups dropped me a few spots to 5th or 6th which had me eligible for the last surprise workout (top 20 in each category). Legs totally unhappy by this stage so warmup for final event included a cold beer while watching initial rounds. Pretty sure that in addition to being a social lubricant it is also a very effective physical lubricant. Pre-beer i had serious doubts as to whether I could manage a single full depth squat ...

Load 2x20kg plates on prowler and push for 50m (25m out and back)
Unload prowler and carry plates 50m
Load bar to 40kg and do
10 OHS
10 thruster
10 shoulder to overhead
10 front squat
Load 2x20kg plates on prowler and push for 50m

Finished in 5:03 and ultimately placed 6th out of about 50 men. Happy enough with that. Great day and super proud of the crew I took down with 4 out of 6 placing in the top 20. The one girl we took down placed 2nd in the ladies comp!!
