I must be doing something right.
Although I didn't stay for the WOD, I hit a new PR during strength work:  1 rep max front squat. 
My
 previous PR was 175# and last March 18th I did that for 3 reps so I 
knew I had more in me. Although my back is still tight, I wasn't sure 
what I would muster.  Working with Kamil again today we jumped from 155#
 to 185#, Kamil's previous PR.  Up down, no problem.  nice straight back
 (according to Kamil) no butt wink at the bottom, but I'm just breaking 
parallel, I should be going deeper, but it's good enough.  
195# 
same deal, up down. 200#, tried to go deeper and had to struggle to stay
 straight but pushed all the way through.  Be both called it quits at 
such a nice round number.  
New PR front squat: 200lbs.  
Followed that up with 2 sets of 8 back squats at 185#.   
Deadlift in the WOD were a no go for my back (which didn't hurt at all during the squats) and since Delilah had a horrible night and Kiza wasn't a happy camper I decided to head home.  
I had my halo already anyway.
