How Did Maddox, Kasperbauer, Williams and Shadburne Perform on 18.3?

Week 3 has arrived and there are a lot of reps; 928 total if you finish. That’s actually the most reps ever programmed in an Open WOD.
Which movement took up the most time?
For all four athletes, double-unders took up the bulk of the reps and also the largest block of time. On average, these four athletes spent between 1:09 and 1:22 on each round of double-unders. A blazing pace considering each completed between 500 and 700 double-unders.
Travis Williams went unbroken on all his sets, so if you’re very proficient you’re aiming for that 1:09 average across the board. That includes transition time.
Which movement was the quickest?
Overhead squats took anywhere from 0:41 to 0:49 per round on average. Dumbbell snatches followed at about 10 to 20 seconds slower.
What’s the bottom line?
All four of these athletes either went unbroken on all sets or strategically stopped for minimal rest; mostly on the muscle-ups.
Travis Williams is the one exception who went unbroken on every set except round 2 of muscle-ups and he was 127 reps short of finishing.
