Quote of the Day (from Tuesday after the 100 Burpees WOD):

“So today was my first official WOD and I was introduced to these “burpees”. I am now going to go to sleep and have burpee nightmares. I’m sure they will haunt me for more than one night.” ~ Lincoln

This WOD is deceiving. Each time it kicks my butt. It also brings back a couple CrossFit memories. The last time we did this WOD was in 2010 in the old box. After the WOD I remember Coach Rona got her first rope climb. The last time I did this WOD was at Bolling AFB in Maryland when Michelle and I were home visiting my family. We took my brother and his wife to the gym on base and did this WOD in the middle of the workout area. I remember everyone in the gym just staring at us even though it was their “CrossFit” area (they had some CF equipment like KB’s and bumpers). I also remember the facility manager walking over in the middle of the WOD to tell us we were making too much noise and disturbing people. I politely told him if he gave us all another 5 minutes that we would all be quiet and flat on our backs (we were almost done). It was slightly less and we were definitely on our backs after this.

Notes:

FGB6 on Saturday! Bring your patience and your intensity for the WOD! It will be a day of awesomeness and we will workout rain or shine!
