33 burpees in late morning
32 burpees in early afternoon followed by the "444" (6 sprints up the 74 neighborhood steps around the corner from my house)
Knees have improved slightly - no longer look like they've been through a meat grinder - now it's more like a belt sander. Sigh.

Mark - I, too, am thankful for Crossfit. Two more days of burpees for me and am rooting for you as I know your burpees have special significance.

Thanks Mark. My daughter met you at the gym in Waco (she was doing Cross Fit) and told me about your Over 50 Crossfitters. I also do Cross Fit daily and thought it would be fun to check out your group.
