I just returned from doing CrossFit Open Workout 18.1:
AMRAP 20 min:
8 Toes to bar
10 dumbbell hang clean and jerks
12 calories on the rower
My score: 267
It was okay. I wanted 10 rounds and didn’t quite get 9 rounds. I may re-do it, but I’m unsure. The row seemed to go on forever.
The atmosphere was great. We all supported one another and cheered one another on.
Still, something was missing, and I can’t put my finger on it. It was different than last year. I think I had all this hype built up in my head, and it was a bit of a let down. I’m unsure. I have such high expectations of myself, and I was disappointed in how I did.
All I know is the Open is different for me this year. It will probably be different next year. And the following…
Oh I’m sorry it didn’t live up to your expectations!

272 the first try and then 306. It was way harder than anticipated. It really exposed my crappy rowing technique. On to the next one!
