Opens WOD 14.2 second attempt
First score = 136 (8 reps shy of round of 16)
So, my first attempt landed me kinda sorta within striking distance of the 4th round but I knew that an 8 rep improvement within a 3 minute window was a lot to ask of myself. The one thing in my favor is that I went into the second attempt with a really well thought out gameplan plus the knowledge of where and when I would experience fatigue.
My second attempt was better by 5 reps but still 3 reps short of the 144 needed to advance to the 4th round. Everything was good up to the last round of pull-ups. I got to the point where I knew I'd be doing singles the rest of the way but I just could not complete them fast enough and I started failing reps. I actually had one minute left with only 10 reps to go!!! I really thought I had it at that point.
I am not ashamed of this score but it is not going to be anywhere near good enough to keep me in the top 50. The top guys in my age group are just crushing this one.
Again, nothing to be done now except to move on to 14.3!!
