Deadlift- New PR 275lbs!

You know that feeling you get when you wake up early on a sunny Saturday morning when you have no plans, a full bank account and someone great with whom to spend the day? That feeling is the feeling of potential. I love that feeling. I get it on my way to work on Friday and Saturday nights. I feel like anything in the world could happen, and I`m ready for it. The promise of excitement and accomplishment looming. That`s potential. That`s the best part of working night shifts in the summer. Anything can happen.

Today has potential. In this sunshine, I am unstoppable. I ran about 5k this afternoon but I can`t map it out on google because I ran in park trails, which don`t show up on the map. That`s not the unstoppable or the potential-holding part of today...

Today`s WOD has potential.
Today is the day that I break through the 265lb barrier.
I did that weight once and havent done it since.
Today is the day.

1x 255lbs
1x 275lbs

275 is my new PR (by 10lbs) so I`m stoked about that. It`s been at least 4 months since I last dead lifted and today I felt good. Coach did his job and coached me through it. Swearing helps, I find.
