Running first, 2.5 run/1.5walk, for 20min.
I managed 1.47m in 20min.
That's 13min 36sec/mile, getting back to the 12min time that is my personal record, and also getting back to a point where I can run for a decent period in one stretch.
Then the warm up, squats were very comfortable last night. Easy to do my set of 10 and I felt good about my form.
No pullups as that was part of the workout.
WOD

Five rounds for max reps of:
Body weight bench press
Pull-ups
I did the bench at 3/4 body weight, 125#. Pull ups on the assist machine with 100# assist.
Sets were as follows:
5/15
5/10
4/10
4/5
4/5
Not too shabby, and a definite improvement over last time. Though last time I didn't use the assist machine for the pullups, my bench was vastly improved.
Oh, and I'm only 42# short of bodyweight bench.
I think I'm actually getting close to being able to pull it off.

Lynne
Started with 30min on the bike. I've learned that different bikes are calibrated differently, so I'll be establishing 'my bike' and I'll only post distances if I use that same machine.
Today was supposed to be a rest day for crossfit, but I haven't worked out in 3 days, and I missed my Taekwondo class...so I hit back a few days and picked Lynne.

Five rounds for max reps of:
Body weight bench press
Pull-ups
I'm not even close to a BW bench press, and I can barely do a pull up. But no better way to get started than to just get started.
I'm brilliant.
Or not.
Anyway, so I started at 90# on the bench and upped it each round if I managed to finish 5 the round before. Except for the 4th round for some reason...don't know why.
Nevermind...here are the numbers:
90#bench - 5reps/1 pull up
100#bench - 5/2
110#bench - 5/2
110#bench - 5/1
120#bench- 3/1
I weigh 166lbs, so I'm 46lbs short of managing to bench my body weight.
Eh.
It still felt good to do.
