    I wanted to share the news that today marks my one year anniversary of crossfit!! I am pretty excited because I didn’t think I was going to be able to do half of the things that crossfit has allowed me to accomplish. I also wanted to say congratulations to Tim for marking his one year anniversary yesterday! And a belated happy birthday as well! I want to thank everyone at Crossfit Jenks for all the support and encouragment you all have given to me. The results and improvements that I have seen in myself for me…are priceless. Thanks Crossfit Jenks! Now go kick Helen’s A$$!

    Congratulations Jenny. The dedication and kindness you show is motivation for everyone and embodies CFJ. Let’s make Year 2 even better. Also, I’m not sure if that picture of Coach Breck is the torture of a Burpee or if his father-in-law hung him by his middle fingers.

    Go Sooners!!

    During the 100-day challenge I did burpees in my bedroom, my garage, my living room, my in-law’s front porch in Lampasas, my in-law’s guest bedroom, and at my local Globo. As you can tell, I have a very dull life. Thus, I got easily drawn into the excitment of the 100-day challenge.

    Today I warmed up w/CFWUx3 w/assisted dips and 20 burpees (I missed them so much, I had to do a few)

    did Hang Squat Cleans 1-1-1-1-1-1-1
    I did 105-115-120(f)-115(f)-105-105-105-105-105

    OHS 15x45lbs.
    Back squat 21x95lbs.

    Happy anniversary to Jen and Tim! WOOHOO!

    Kody and I will be MIA tonight, but not due to lack of enthusiasm for Helen. She is one of my favorites! The BCS Championship calls….GO GATORS! :)

    Ginny I can hear the knife sets being sharpened from all the way over here ha ha you better be careful you might get jumped ha ha ha!

    Congrats Tim and Jennifer to your one year anniverseries…I believe there should be a workout in honor of the two of you

    Possible names could include:

    Jim
    Tennifer
    Timmifer
    Timnifer
    Timny

    I as well will be missing out on the warm embrace and eskimo kisses of Helen…and I was actually looking forward…it is one my favorites. But alas…I have a shoulder treatment and the BCS Championship calls…as well as some soon to be regretful eating.

    Happy Helen all

    BOOMER SOONER! (Altough I won’t be totally sad if Florida wins, Tim Tebow is a beast)
