re: Official Crossfit 2025 Open Thread

Finished with 164. For some reason after watching the announcements and those guys breaking sub 10:00 scores, I thought there was no way I would be capped lol. Then after watching a few of the better athletes in a gym full of "normal" guys flirting with the cap, I decided maybe this would be harder than I expected

How’d you do? I know you said this one was in your wheelhouse

Keep in mind, I've only been doing CF for about a year and three months. I didn't finish. 146 reps. Finished snatches and did one wall walk.

Wall walks killed me. Having to hold your hands so far out is tough on us sawed off baws. I normally do WW's with my hands tucked in at about chest level. The Open had my hands way out in front. That killed how far I could start with my feet up on the wall and made me walk way more than I usually do with my hands. That gassed me.

Oh well, I've improved dramatically from the '24 Open. Now, I just need to master dubs and get better on the rig.
