I've always wanted to finish an ironman and this year I've finally had the opportunity to train for one. Unfortunately going to an official ironman races is a huge pain in the ass. The timing doesn't work out (I need to do this before restarting clinic rotations in my residency, i.e. July 2016), they would take tons of time in travel (I've got a 14 month old at home) and they are expensive ($1300 registration fee!). So I've decided to set up my own race, the SOLOMAN.

Workout:
1. "Fran"
21-15-9
95# Thrusters
Pull Ups

3 hr rest

2. For time:
21 x 225# Deadlift
50 Squats
21 x 135# Push Press
15 x 225# Deadlift
50 Squats
15 x 135# Push Press

Notes:
Fran was about 15 seconds off my PR.  As usual the thrusters were unbroken, but the pullups slowed me down.  The second WOD was a nice mix between somewhat heavy load and lightweight repetitions.  Overall, it's feel pretty good.

Other News:
Becca got her first kipping pullup yesterday!  Hooray!
