Pullups chin clearly over bar. 8:06 Not completely happy with this time and my intensity, but still dehydrated and fatigued from the challenging hike yesterday. The HSPUs were tough as always as I don't practice them enough, pullups were better than normal. With regards to the push/pull nature of this WOD, the total body involvement of the kipping pullup and also the HSPU meant that it felt a long way from a more traditional push-pull couplet.

It's a bit of a test to see how people cope with a push/pull couplet. I wouldn't normally program in this manner. You are my guinea pigs. Please leave your thoughts here. Thank you, Adam.

Blasted an 18km difficult, heavily undulating hike in 33degs+. Feel good now, but not taking enough water was stupid!! Would like to make this workout up tomorrow. Cheers!
