The squats were good.  I'm working on switching to high bar back squats so I'm not used to going low.  I get much lower, but I'm only getting the stretch reflex on a few reps.  Decided to not push it anymore today.  My legs were tired but my knee felt great and I just didn't want to push it till it hurt.  Maybe a bit conservative but I'm ok with that!  Just happy the knee is better.
Fun metcon Joe and I came up with.  High box jumps are always good.  The pulls were basically the pull of a one-hand kb snatch and it was nice n' heavy...good stuff!

Today I took from the Team Rogue Vs. Team Again Faster Event 11 that is posted on Tuesday's posting on crossfit.com and scaled it.

Just got 'er done today.  Nothing impressive and no strength work.  Better than nothing.
