3 rounds for time of:

50 KB Hi-Pulls 24/16kg
50 Double-Unders

Notes: KB Hi-Pulls begin with the KB touching the floor,
and finish with the KB handle under the chin and elbows above the KB
handle. These may be performed like a swing, but the KB must touch the
floor on every rep. (Outlaw CrossFit)

Mike L. had the top score yesterday with 117 reps, as rx'd and a cool 205lb. Clean and Jerk prior to the conditioning portion of the workout.  Mike's been training with us about a month.  He was training on his own prior to wearing the red t-shirt of the Spartan Performance warrior!

Sleep……       "The thing is, I have written about this
before, but my own sleep routine is not great.  I tend to get to bed too
late and have been waking up in the night stressing about things.  One
thing that I need to address is the internet.  I am getting too addicted
to checking, checking and checking – email, twitter, facebook, google
reader.  Not much is actually new or that exciting but there is this
self imposed pressure to KEEP UP TO DATE….with a lot of pointless
drama!  My iphone is the first thing I reach for in the morning and even
sometimes if I wake in the middle of the night.  This is not healthy."-—Chris Highcock, Conditioning Research
