Nice WOD and completion time, Terry.

Tried the HPC WOD the other day and couldn't get a decent weight up.....slow legs/slow arms? Don't know what, but I'm gonna get this....

Take care!

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

Mark - Isn't it amazing how even burpees can grow on you after 100 days?

Great job on the BS, Diane! I like your acronym for your globogym....

You're right about the burpees, you know. They're even growing on me....:D

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

Stephen - The CLBBG isn't even close to a Globogym. It is a tiny little joint down the street that has body-builder pictures on the walls. A bunch of big guys show up there but they don't actually seem to do much. When I did "Michael" in there for the WOD a while back, they all looked at me like I was nuts. But let's look on the bright side - it's close and it's affordable! And they have a C2 erg!

Wow......gotta be hard to work out in that kinda environment. Seems like such people want to be very helpful......in the wrong sort of way for us CFers. And, if you want to draw a ton of looks from people who believe you've [I][B]really[/B][/I] fallen off your rocker, do a WO of "Virtual Shoveling."
