Open 18.5 (AKA 11.6 / 12.5) Announced

EVANS AVENUE PARKING REMINDER During Construction on Connecticut Street (click for details).

Open workout "18.5" was released on Thursday evening, and "by way of vote" we finally have our repeat workout from previous Opens of years past.  It's thrusters and chest-to-bar pull-ups as we expected (no dumbbells though!), and is a repeat of Open workouts 11.6 and 12.5.  Those of us who have been doing CrossFit, and the Open, long enough to remember 11.6 and 12.5 were basically waiting for this one to come back into play at some point since it's just such a classic combo and format (we last did this workout as a class WOD on 01-19-15 for those of you searching BTWB).  

If you're going to be completing the workout this weekend at Arena Ready (either during the fun craziness of our Open Heats during all Saturday classes, or during Sunday Open Gym) then please start by reviewing the workout details here and watching the standards video below (which covers only the Rx workout, and not the scaled version) - thanks!
