Stephen-
After all that workout, I love the "Kinda tired" comment! I guess so.


Glenda-
It was Miranda? Am I remembering her name correctly? I am terribly shy and horrible with names. She was very sweet. It was just nice to know that someone else in the gym enjoys the same insanity.

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

First off - Glenda, what a workout. That could drive someone away from Crossfit, or make them really proud. Terrific job.

Today I did CFWUx2 w/assisted dips and pull-ups and 20 Burpees (10,10)

Did Fran modified w/70lbs.
My time: 9:28 (13 secs. over what I needed to PR w/this weight)

Did 47 Burpees (10, 10, 10, 10, 7). Thus I got my 67 for the day with the warm-up burpees. Some days I really dread these things. 33 Burpee days to go. Yahoo!
