Comments:

I'm having a strange strained pain in the back of my knee, so I opted to do cleans instead of thrusters (darn). I don't know what caused it but it hurts to fully straighten my leg. I suspect it is related to the fact that my hamstrings have been extremely tight for the last couple weeks.

I started w 60# cleans - only got 1 switched to 50#, should have switched to 55#. They were kinda easy.

The 115# deadlifts on the otherhand were ridiculously hard given that my 5RM is 135. I can only hope it's because of whatever is wrong with my knee. But by a little more than half way through round 1 and for the rest of the WOD I was reduced to doing them one at a time.

Still - not bad for a workout I wasn't really sure I was going to do at all.
