Sunday's workout was being this close to the stage through two punk bands (Break Union and the Loved Ones) and then Flogging Molly. Mosh pit antics, pushing, standing my ground, staying upright, and generally not getting trampled is quite a lot of work. I was so tired (and bruised) I took Monday off. :)
I started doing CrossFit in August of '04, thanks to some needling by Brand X Students (Jason and Ricky) and Jeff Martin. I've never looked back. If look at me and say, well, of course YOU can do it, you are a maniac, then that is the beauty of CrossFit at work. Start doing CrossFit and in 6 months time, YOU will be the YOU that YOU looked at in AWE and perhaps a little skepticism. Please sign my GuestBook

FGB Fundraiser - 234
Fight Gone Bad 234
I played in the womens standard class (B)
Wall Ball - 17, 15,15 (14# ball, 10' target)
SDHP (55#)- 15, 16, 15
Box Jumps 20" - 15, 16, 13
Push Press (55)- 25, 20, 19
Row - 11, 11, 11
I did all 3 rounds jumping on the box instead of step ups. I'm not unhappy with that. It could have been worse.
If you haven't donated yet, I can accept donations that count toward my tshirt until tomorrow and donations will be accepted indefinitely to benefit both wounded troops and Prostate cancer research.

Saturday - Thrusters, Rope climbs, Runs.
I did the following version of the Brand X WOD:
200m
50 thrusters 35#
3 rope climbs, 10 Pull Ups
400m
30 thrusters 35#
1 rope climb (this is where I said “I’m done!” because my arms were useless)
then thought, well I can at least do the last “run.”
800m
“oh ok its only 15 thrusters”
15 thrusters 35#
“well I guess I can do the LAST rope climb.”
1 rope climb.
All the rope climbs were to the second tape (15’) so I shorted this workout the equivalent of 3 rope climbs and finished in I think 31:50.
Yep the shouting and encouragements did help me.
