I can't wait to see who they have in the next episode of Every Second Counts - hope they include some of the women! BTW, Josh Everett seemed very clinical and calculating in his approach to the workouts but I didn't get the feeling that he really gave it his all like some of the other guys that were absolutely balls to the wall! Besides, if he had forgone the blow pop and had a Guinness instead, maybe he would have done better with those sandbags. What was up with that? I thought he was a track guy? He literally walked up the hill - didn't look like he was in a hurry at all

You BITE YOUR TONGUE, Lohmann! Bite it!

Modesty and competitive showmanship are separate. Besides, he had just finished a Blue Raspberry Blow-pop and wanted to know if his tongue was "too blue". He was counting on you. Sonofa!

35lb sandbags up the hill at Picnic Grove Park in Fox River Grove - stay tuned for event details (I have to find some sandbags first).

i think anyone who wants to compete in the games from now on must practice trail running.....unless they change venues, i predict a hill run (or two) in each of the next several future Games....Khalipa said he practiced A LOT of trail running before this years games and it paid off (minus the cramping, of course)...

keep your eyes open for the best hills around the fort.....Garth can confirm whether they are steep enough....i think he ran that damn hill in Aromas about 100 times...

and finally, thanks again to everyone who sent messages of encouragement!!!...and thanks for pushing us these last few months....our accomplishments were a team effort with everyone @ the Fort being a part of it in some way!!!

...and to my team members, all i can say is I am sorry!!! i promise to drink way more next year @ the games....i am keeping the 2009 CrossFit Games Drunkest Idiot trophy at my house....you can stop by and see it whenever!
