Good day at the gym..

After a terrible day at the gym yesterday, today was a good day at the gym.
Did the 5k 5 ton workout from Crossfit Diesel.
The original workout involved running 5k, but i substituted the run with the row.
For time:

21 Deadlifts at 225#
1000m row
21 Front Squats at 135#
1000m row
21 Power Cleans at 135#
1000m row
21 KB Swings at 53#

Did the deadlifts unbroken and finished the first 1k row in 3:30. The front squats were harder than i thought. Thought i would be able to finish them unbroken but i had to do them in sets of 5. The second 1k row was way slower than the first. Finished it in 3:55. Did the power cleans in sets of 5 also, and the third 1k row was terrible. Finished it in over 4:15. I was completely exhausted before i got to the swings. Did them in 2 sets. I wasn't really looking forward to the last part of the workout. I think i could push myself through a 2k run, but the a 2k row is just painful. Had to take a break with 1k left, and just pushed myself to the end. Final time was 30:59.
