I loved this workout! I did read a little about Griffin before I did this but didn't see the bottom paragraph. It would make sense that I loved this workout if it is derived from one of Griffin's most favorite WODs - "The Chief" because I love THAT workout too!

I used the first run as my warm-up.

The Rounds all felt good - everything unbroken (Singles on the cleans). It was pretty warm though so my heart rate was on the higher side making that second run feel tougher than I wanted it to. BUT it was still great!

Grateful to honor him.
