Soooooo, I started out doing really well and had a great pace through rounds 1 and 2. However, during the round of 50 pukie decided to show himself at about rep 40 of the pullups . Ran to the bathroom (on the other side of the globo, of course) threw up and then went back and finished. I stopped the clock while I was in the bathroom so it is not entirely accurate, but I was just glad I was able to finish.

Way to tough it out . . . wow . . .
Thanks!! I knew it was coming and I kept trying to deny it. Glad this workout is in the past and I just have to hope it doesn’t show up again for a looong long time
I would agree. Having a target range for the time to complete the METCON WODs would be a great help to us newbs. I noticed that I had been completing a number of WODs with too much weight and too slowly. After reducing the weight and improving my form I feel like I am getting a better workout. So, much thanks for including the timing when you can.
Yeah, this is a subject that comes up frequently. Metric/TP - how about a sticky on this subject over at the newb forum?
Guys, GD is understandably a hugely busy man, and he does this everyday for us and the rest of the community ... FOR FREE!!!. Please keep this in mind.
IN GENERAL: the answer to this frequently asked question is this:
So, if not provided with a target time, do a search either here or at the main site: look at the previous time this was done, and find an average range of the best times performed as required. Scale appropriately for your fitness/capability level in order to accomplish the WOD in that time frame (plus a buffer - maybe 10%). There ya go!
In this case, since it’s brandy-new , I’d get a feel for something similar, and guess a target time based on that (here, Angie is a good stab like Nukemarine said).
