Death by anything is awesome!

WODDeadlift
1-1-1-1-1-1-1
Then ...
Death by Thrusters (135/95)

RESULTS
235# deadlift; 65# WOD 10 rounds+8reps

ANALYSIS
I went into the deadlift work knowing that I wasn't going to PR today - I haven't completed a deadlift, in a WOD or max rep, since November.  Its just been timing.  My max in November was 235# and I leveled out today at 235#.  Not bad.  I could have gotten 240# up but didn't have time to try. I failed at 245#  Couldn't get past that sticky zone.  So let's see where that number goes in 45 days. I *heart* deadlifts almost as much as squats :)
I wasn't sure how to scale this WOD so went with rx'd Fran.  The first few thrusters felt weird on my right shoulder, but then got better.  Or rather, I was throwing the weight up more vs. pushing.  I was the second to last to finish, which made me happy. I wish I pushed through that last set - I could have done it, and not just saying that in post-WOD bliss...  The person that beat me was lifting 20lbs less, so I am pleased ;)
