  1. Wow I didn't even realize that the crashing the party article was the one they interviewed Nick for until the comments today.

    Thanks to Ro for the help on the last interval. Needed it and it paid off.

  2. 6:30 with McDowell, Ro, and Whit (!). Totally botched my barbell math so my Wendler sets were all over the place. Ended up doing 140#x3 175#x3 (doh!) and 185#x10. I like to believe that I might have had a little extra gas for a couple more reps at 185 had I not upped the weight too much on the second set, but so it goes.

    75# and jumping pulls ups for the wod, finished in 4:26. All squats unbroken except the set of 9, which I should have just worked through. I love it when met cons are over this fast.

  3. Huge 6:30PM class! Love the spirit of this place. JakeL: thanks for sharing that story.

    I still get very anxious about every new workout or skill practice but I was pleased to get up t 93×10 on the LBBS and I think I coulda done more — that feels great. Much thanks to Whit H for excellent coaching/cueing.

    The WOD killed me. 65lbs in 8:05. I took several breaks to laugh and cry. By the round of 9 I could barely rack the weight. 'Ro got me through it! I'm looking forward to doing this one again.

    So now I'm home in the middle of my post-workout shake-it-out routine and I realize I need to change my answer to the QOD: I'd be a back-up dancer to Justin Timberlake or Janelle Monae. Or any Bollywood movie.

  4. Today was awesome and also totally kicked my ass.

    LBBS: 305×9. Left one in the tank after I got a little squirrely on rep 9.
    WOD rx: 4:04. That totally kicked my ass in a good way. All FSQ unbroken, first 15 PUs unbroken, and then 6-4-2; 5-3-2, 3-3, 3. I think maybe I should have broken up the first set but I thought there was a chance I could do all unbroken. I want to come back to this one.
