  3. Dear Augustus,
    I owe you about 4 burpees. Good luck collecting!

    Really hard WOD for me, I felt really weak after the strength and walked a bit on the second run and rested too much.

    Straight leg raise for 1 minute (I was already running late for my nail appointmen?)

    Wow, it smoked me. Evidently coaching and watching the fittest on earth and playing at an amusement and water park does not keep you in shape.

  8. Got 245# (5# PR) failed at 255# – if Breck had AC/DC or Van Halen playing I’m pretty sure I could have gotten it 🙂

    WOD:
    95#
    Totally goofed on the burpees – thought the penalty was only there for when you failed a DU – not broke up the sets. So with the first 75 I broke it up into 4 sets and the 2nd 75 did it in 3 sets (unbroken within each set). So after I finished I did the 7 burpees.

    rookie mistake…

    16:38

    This was the first time ever during crossfit that I actually walked just a little… around
    the pole by the road..don’t know why…probably several reasons: hot outside, getting
    old and only been working out 2 to 3 days a week…and missed almost 2 weeks!
