Went for a lovely hike early in the morning and felt good and wanted to do this workout today too.  Sled pushes are so awesomely hard and I am feeling sore in the glutes and hami's the next day.  It was lightly raining and the road was wet, the second push was slightly uphill and I could not get the sled started so I had to take the 25# plate off.  It was still hard with 45#, I think mostly getting traction with my feel was harder on the wet concrete.  My hardest push was the 10 seconds of trying to get that damn thing to move an inch!  I'm sure some neighbor was entertained.  The OH marches were tough!  The last 30 seconds of trying to keep that barbell up and keep my core engaged was a serious challenge.  I may have lost my core a little but was proud I made it through all three without dropping the bar.  Swivel hip are more 'pinchy' in the right hip.  Everything else went well. I have been doing the couch stretch a lot during mobility and was able to get my chest up in it this time, good to see progress.  Thanks!
