Max height box jump 33 1/4
Randy rx'd 6:17 personal best is 6:08, so 9 seconds slower. I did try to focus on all the drills and hitting each one but I know I wasn't finishing, especially once I got tired.
Thanks Jim
The party is ON tomorrow, Saturday from 4pm on. Hopefully the worst will be over by then and some folks can't come Sunday so let's stick with the original plan. Hey we're Crossfittters - neither wind nor rain or ... (oops wrong organization!)
Anyway the birthday boy is prepared to BBQ in the rain if necessary so please all come!!
Did 10 plus 2 on the Wod this morning - so happy to be swinging that kettle bell again.
See you soon Alex and Ashleigh (I have lots of bacon and the surf's up!)
Max Box Jump - 31 and 3/4 I think...regardless, 4 inches less than my best ?!! I'm blaming Karen and my tired legs ;)
WOD: 10 + MUs and HSPUs: Jumping MUs at 56", and semi-assisted HSPU (can I call them that Jim??! I'm excited either way!!) and 1.5 KB swings. I enjoyed NATE today!
Thanks Jim for all the help :)
Met Jack on the way in this morning,he's as adorable as ever and looking trim:)
Sub back squat for box jumps,focused on parallel and below.

Fun to end the workout week with Ward,Peigi,Alona,Cassandra and Jim :)
Bacon, hurricane surfing, CFK party...best weekend ever?
We can't wait, Peigi!
I also can't wait to hear Andrew's thoughts on today's picture :)
P.S. Still nursing a really sore throat, so haven't trained all week :(

WOD Linda Rx'd (285\190\145) 18:32
Couldn't do a muscle up today... I tried but Josh killed me earlier this week.
Andrew's girlfriend is on fire!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, VARP!!!!!!!!!
SD - Nice work on Linda!!! I haven't done Linda in a LONG time (not that I can even do it rx'ed ... due to bench!), but would love to tackle her again someday.
Trish - LOL!!!! Guess he has to marry me now and not the KB! ;)
Earl Report:
Stay tuned to the website tomorrow at 10am to see if the Saturday class is cancelled. If the weather is bad enough that you have to think about driving in it, please don't. We aren't going anywhere!
Box Jump: 46"
Nate: 12 rounds rx'd
Nate Rx'd (Mostly as one of the two KB's I swung was only 1.75pood) - 7 rnds & 2 Muscle Ups.
Having alot of trouble of late getting comfortable with the HSPU's and I don't think Josh helped
Yes, happy birthday Varp. I send out a big sloppy wet one to you.....and happy birthday to you Lindsay, just in case II don't see you tomorrow. A big sloppy wet one for you too....with maybe a lil tongue action..........what???? I'm just sayin'!!!
Oh yeah Varp...I hope you enjoyed your 2nd trip to CFK buddy...should've stayed home like Amanda told you
Nate /w jumping mups & hspus /w kip: 6 rounds + 2 mups + 2 hspu
HSPUs slowed me down, I had a few failed attempts
Alain - how sweet! Thank you!
WOD:
4 rounds + 1 MU
First 3 rounds were Rxd under SD's watchful gaze.
Last round, I didn't get all the way to ground on HSPU.
Only 1 failed MU attempt out of 9 - ended up doing 9 MUs in 20 minutes...that's almost 1 every 2 minutes, which is faster than I've ever done them.
Great class Ryan.
Happy bday Varp!

Should have listened to my girlfriend...
Nate w/3:1 Pull Ups and Ring Dips: 7 rounds + 2 HSPU
Been getting 2 consecutive Muscle Ups lately, but could only bang out 1 in the 1st round of the WOD, so switched to the sub. Ran off to get some gloves mid round as my hands haven't totally recovered from Josh.
THEN,
Amanda tried to get me to stay in tonight, saying we had to be on our way somewhere for 7:00, but I so stubbornly came for a WOD anyway. Made it back home in good time, got thrown in a cab, blind folded ,and ended up right back at the box to see a bunch of my buddies waiting, all ready for a workout!!!

26 Deadlifts - 275 lbs
200m Run w/ 20 lb Med Ball
26 Ring Push Ups

Amanda, Andrew, Sarah, thank you again. I honestly couldn't have imagined a more fun way to start a Birthday. All my friends on the other hand... lol
It was just awesome to see a bunch of people who always hear me babble on and on about CFK show up for a WOD at the same time! It's something I'll never forget (they won't either!), that's for sure! Wow.
Ryan, thanks for omitting the Birthday punishment.
If anyone is up for some drinks, a whole gang of us will be downtown tonight, the more the merrier!

OUCH!!! Those med ball runs sucked!!! DLs and ring push-ups were the easiest parts.
So much for resting because of a sore throat. This WOD looked like a blast after seeing Varp, Amanda and all their friends do it.
Jamie, we really enjoyed putting this on for you and your friends tonight! Glad you all enjoyed it. Next time listen to your girlfriend ;) Have a great night out tonight and we'll see you tomorrow at the Duncan's! :)
P.S. Push press for both Varp and myself were without a rack.
