Twisted Sister

So I did the Games 12.5 wod today which I can only refer to as Fran's twisted sister. Thrusters and chest to bar pull ups. I say twisted because unlike Fran where you start off with 21 and decrease reps, thinking thank god it's only 15, ok, only 9 this time. In this wod you start off at 3 and increase by 3 each set. So the more tired you are, the more reps you have to do to complete. Sucky would be a good description. But, I did pretty well for the most part. I was hoping considering my last Fran time @65 was around 7 minutes, I should (you just never know day to day) be able to get to round 15 and I did. And if I didn't struggle with the stupid band for a few seconds, I may have even gotten all 15 pull ups.  So overall, happy with my result today. And happy I remembered to pick up some more Ben Gay for my traps. I can feel them crying already.
