Elijah and Britnee came to track. We worked on form mostly during the 100 drills. They did 8x200's while I did my 400's. I am not sure why I had a 1:25 on the second interval. All intervals felt the same!!

CrossFit
4 rounds for time: (10:48)

400m run
3 rope climbs
+
Push Press 6 x 3 sets

I did a 2 mile warm-up under a 8:00 pace and the intervals were under a 1:30 time. I did one practice rope climb with no legs for support. That was rather easy but it was tough getting down!! I did a progression of weight on the push press... didn't want to injure my shoulders. Did 10 GHD at the end for practice.
