Sectionals WOD #6

Snuck into xfit tonight to do Sectionals WOD #6, sort of. My shoulder is injured from a bad bid at Paganello, so I can't actually do this WOD for reals. But I wanted to put up a number.

7 minutes AMRAP:
3 thrusters (65 lbs)
3 CTB pullups
6 thrusters
6 pullups
9 thrusters
9 pullups
etc.

I did 6 reps total. I got 1 thruster. Then decided if I can do 1, might as well do 3. And then I thought, hey, I can DO CTB pullups, just not right now. But maybe I can do 1. So I went to the bar and basically did a dead-hang CTB pullups. Cool. So I did 3. Then I decided if I did any more I'd be shooting myself in the foot wrt rehab, so I quit.

6. Still puts me right around the 50th percentile overall globally of everyone who completed all 6 sectionals workouts. I think healthy I would have ended up around top 1/3 overall. I'm down with that.
