Three WOD's

In prep for the sectionals coming up, today was a tough 3 wod's. Earlier this afternoon went to Balance and did a wod from the Arnold Sectionals:
5 rounds: (with a 40# vest on)
7 Deadlifts (275#)
11 Burpees
The first two rounds were not  as bad as i thought, but as soon as i got to the 3rd round, it all went down hill. The deadlifts got a little harder but the weighted burpees were tough. My knee held well on the deadlifts, but on the burpees, it hurt a lot! I wanst really happy with my time (8:04) Looking at the times from the sectionals,i would have been in the mid 20's and  i know i can do this a lot faster and at a sub 5 min pace. Will have to try this again soon. Maybe after a run.

After a 2 hour rest, i decided to take advantage of the great day outside. I went on a 3 mile run and it felt great! My knee was good and was really happy with my time (23:46)

4 hours later it was a workout at CrossfitDC.
What are the odds that tonight's class would include deadlifts and burpees? Well, it did. After a quick warmup, my group and i worked with 275# on the deadlift.
Tonights wod:
30 Deadlifts (275#)
21-15-9
DB Push Press (45#)
Push ups
Squats
30 Burpees
Time: 7:04
The deadlifts felt light and the burpees were rough.
Total DL today: 65 at 275#
Total Burpees: 85 (55 with a 40# vest)
