Yesterday’s workout brought back some SUPER fond memories for me. The workout was 5 rounds for time: run 400m, 50 squats. The fond memories of this WOD come from the running and endurance certification Bill and I attended. After 2 days of being beaten by Brian Mac and his crew, they put us through this little WOD. Unfortunately I didn’t get to do the workout yesterday due to a horrible neck ache, but I’m sure I’d love it as much as when we did it in September.
You guys did a great job! Matt Weltzer has done a fabulous job working on making his squats controlled and his form consistent. Even with his legs burning, he rep’d right through his last dozen squats with great form!
**CROSSFIT LADIES BEAST ALERT** Did anyone happen to notice Kris Loyd last night during the WOD? She has been consistently coming to the Fort and busting her butt! My prediction is that in the next 60-90 days we’ll start seeing her name on the record boards for the named workouts. You’ll be doing them as Rx’d in no time girlfriend!
Brian, we ran last night….what in the WORLD could you be doing that is more fun than CrossFit?

Watching Boston College give an incredibly lame and pathetic effort in the NCAA Tournament. I totally should have been at the Fort instead.
But hey, we got to run on Saturday morning.

Ah, thanks for the love Jennie, but can I have 120 days? I'll work really hard, I promise.
