12/27 Batman and Catwoman

5 Rounds for time:
12 Thrusters 95#
12 Pullups

Glute-ham raise 5x5

The WOD stipulated that each athlete should pick their own weight for the thruster, with the caveat that I wanted them to move fast.  I program this type of thing from time to time to see what kind of gauge our athletes have on their own ability.  Sometimes it works out great, others not so great, but is always a good learning experience.  I used 95#, which in hindsight, was a bit heavy.  Had to break the thrusters once in both the 4th and 5th rounds and finished in 5:50.  Way too much looking at the bar and walking from the barbell to pullup bar, rather than running.  Quads blew up for a good while after, which is always pleasant.
Something special tomorrow.
