I think 8 rounds, but I wasn't too focused. The L-pullups took much time, I focused on form. Other things were easy.

About 12 for me. I really liked the rhythm of this one.

While training at the school today, I got into a tirade about trying to pull deadlifts without straps with a kid who was a few sets into some singles. He gave me a bit of attitude, so I proceeded to pull 10 with the 295 that he had on the bar. We jumped up to 315x1, 345x1, 355x1 (he failed here) 375x1 (PR by 15lbs)...it was one of those days, the bar felt like it weighed absolutely nothing, so I had to keep going. I jumped to 395...looked at it and though "Eh, screw it, why not an even 400?" so 400 it was, and just like all the rest, it pulled like nothing off the floor. So, I set a 35-40lb PR and put on a good show for the kids. 400lb deadlift at a bodyweight of 176lb
About an hour later I did the Crossfit benchmark "Elizibeth" 21-15-9 135lb squat clean Ring Dips Finished in 9:06, which if I'm not mistaken is a bit slower than my PR, but faster than the last time it came up. With a PR on a deadlift in the same day, I don't think I'll complain!
