Notes - Light day on ROP.  This was ok.  I didn't feel like I had very good wind with the snatching.  In fact conditioning doesn't really feel "there" at all.  This probably an improvement over last week (1 more minute, 20 more reps) but I wonder how this would go if I did the 5-minute snatch test.  Which I need to do pretty quickly here.

Notes - Trained outside of Lloyd Center in Portland as Leah and I went down Sunday afternoon for my grandmother's funeral services.  97 years old.  It was good to see the family.  Appreciative for that time and that I could go. Nice to be able to bring bells so easily in a car.   A 20, a 34, and a 32kg.  They are beautiful tools.
