CF - (6:00 AM)
CF Midland - awesome place and they have an awesome website (Traveler WOD's for folks on the road)

7x hand release plyo pushup
7x power clean

When you grab the bar on these sets, you weren't allowed to take your hands off the bar. Brutal.

LS (6:00 PM)
warmup: 500 then 8x50 on 15" rest
1500y time trial(29:45). The YMCA in Midland wasn't sure if the pool was meters or yards (think it might have been meters) and I think I counted a lap twice. That is a slow time to how good I felt swimming.

300 cool down
(1:15 total)
