Helen rx'ed

Cycle 3 Week 2: Back Squat 1RM + 5% from Cycle 2
5 reps @ 40% (65#)
5 reps @ 50% (85#)
3 reps @ 60% (100#)
3 reps @ 70% (115#)
3 reps @ 80% (135#)
3+ reps @ 90% (150#): 3 reps

Helen (rx'ed):
3 rounds of 400m run / 21 KBS (UB) / 12 pull ups (12/5-4-3/3-2-2-2-2-1)
12:27

Felt kind of weak on the back squats today. Hip flexors are sore from partially running down the Rattlesnake trail hike (about 4.4 miles one way) on Saturday.
I was pretty excited to see Helen on deck today. Finally, I could get an rx'ed time in the books! I really pushed for me and I did not break up the KBS. I was happy with my time as I knew I was a slow runner in general.
I checked out the Helen times from CFC's Rx test day and it affirmed my suspicions... I am STILL a slow runner. Improved KBS and pull ups but it's the run that is probably lagging behind.
