   10# med ball shoddy V-ups (leg position was the hindrance here)
   133# front squats
   Run was train tracks and back for the noon class, which I’m pretty sure is more than 400m

   Great workout!

   then prematurely did tomorrow’s 5×3 shoulder presses: 85-90-90-92.2-95 (PRs on the last 2)
   …so I got curious and tried 100# for 1 rep and GOT IT!!!! (big ol’ PR)

    21:04 (unweighted, 67# x 3, 77# x 2)

    At some point during my 3rd run Dave J threw an extra 10# on because I was “going too fast.” Probably could have done 77# the whole time, but was worried that my legs were smoked from doing squat cleans last night. Thanks Dave!
