I wrote this one
Partner WOD
30 min AMRAP
Partner 1 - 1 trip (50ft) SA DB Overhead Walking Lunge 70/50
Partner 2 - Max Sandbag over the shoulder 150/100
Switch once partner 1 completes 1 trip.
Every 5 minutes beginning on the 0 perform:
0 - 30 t2b
5 - 20 devils press 50/35
10 - 10 bar muscle ups
15 - 10 deadlift 275/195
20 - 20 pistols
25 - 30 snatch 135/95
Score is total Sandbag
Score: 43
I was partnered with JB. He got 1 or 2 sandbag each round. I got 4, 4, 3, 5, 6, 4.
All WL were unbroken for me. I was impressed/surprised at the lack of struggle with those. Left arm lockout was the only tough part. Leg day is paying off!
Snatches I did 5, 3, 4.
BMU I did 5. T2b 15, DP 10, pistols I did all 20.

We were 2nd behind Gary and Kalyn until the HSPU, then we fell to 3rd or 4th. We stayed steady on KB snatch. I thought they felt harder than they did in the Open. I didn't realize until afterward when I was cleaning the DB that Azaria gave me a 60#, not fifty. So I did 50 reps with the 60# as sets of 10.
On the bike we caught and passed Tommy and Brantley and JB and Ashley. We were 2nd overall.
