OK, Melissa’s eight months pregnant and still finished 3rd in the last night’s mini-metcon of Med Ball 800m Toss and Fetch.
While that says a lot about Melissa, what does it say about #4-7? Defend yourselves in Comments or suffer the wrath of double Burpees!
And, while we’re talking about Comments, meet two members of our Varsity Blog-Sitting Team, who ceaselessly toil to bring inane chatter to CF blogs everywhere and run up the Comment total before somebody discovers them.
You can view their work here and here. (But not at the Power Barn, because they just delete us — spoil sports!) And if you have a nominee for our next victim beneficiary, let us know in Comments!

I heard Sue using language that was unbecoming of a lady during this workout. I was shocked!
August 21st, 2008 at 10:11 am
yikes…I think that ball may be bigger than my belly! And for the record Lis…its just about 8months now…let’s not go adding any more days!!!
August 21st, 2008 at 10:14 am
Double burpees would be appropriate for #4-7. After all Melissa beat them using double Med. Balls.

so glad that I don’t have to defend myself from last night workout – other than being a cupcake & sitting at home watching Batman Begins!!

Look.. I’ll I’m gonna say is- sometimes I feel like Melissa is sad cause she needs to sub some of the workouts… so maybe some of us just “slow down” a bit to let her get ahead! We are really good @ it.. we pant and gasp for air, we curse and we whine… all for Melissa!!! We really do love her most!!!!!

Jill just earned triple burpees.
And I just did mine. Mmmm. Delicious.
(On the Internet, no one knows you’re not really burpeeing.)
August 21st, 2008 at 11:02 am
LOL.. it’s hard to tell the truth from lies in our own gym, nevermind the internet!!!!!! Hey Becky- nice time on yesterdays met-con!!!!!!!!!
August 21st, 2008 at 11:07 am
TRUTH V. LIES
1. I didn’t do my burpees yesterday (truth)
2. I OHS a massive 14lbs yesterday (truth)
3. 6:38 met-con time yesterday (lie)
August 21st, 2008 at 11:25 am
Unlike SOME people, my 6:40 time was legit (although it was probably closer to 6:30, but I had to stop for a truck). I can’t speak for numbers 4-7.
Also, the fact that I OHS’ed 60 lbs x 3 yesterday vs. not being able to OHS the pvc pipe a few weeks ago would, in some circles, probably be considered progress.
August 21st, 2008 at 11:35 am
Well I really tried to make yesterday’s class and a truck died on 84 which killed my commute home…….i could hear the driver saying something about topless burpees & potomac (truth)
Well I’ll be honest and join becky’s club of people who forgot to do burpees yesterday….I rowed 3 rounds of 800 meters, had intentions of doing my burpees and instead subsituted 7 burpees for a cheeseburger and 3 beers. I did make them up at 6 this morning though (hopefully the burpee gods are appeased) and I’ll get my 8 in later today….i promise
August 21st, 2008 at 11:37 am
I missed OHS?! i’m pissed……
August 21st, 2008 at 11:50 am
Alright Chris – it’s on – next time I’m there (either tonight or tomorrow morning) – I am doing the met-con and I will beat 6:38! Mark my words….
August 21st, 2008 at 11:50 am
Bring on the burpees!!! I love them now…Do I get quadruple if I tell you that I’m watching Knocked Up in the office right now??
August 21st, 2008 at 12:28 pm
LOL I LOVE our Comments!!!!!!!
Too damn funny. We should have some kind of humor WOD and bitch slap some other affiliates.
(Whoops, did I say that out loud? Ah, what does it matter anyhow? It’s not like I have anything to do with them anyway.)
And Jill has the best job in the world. Well, aside from the topless truck driver doing burpees next to Dan that caused that major crash on 84. (Wait, did I get that right?)
Kathrine, were you driving on 84 yesterday? And did you have your shirt on?
August 21st, 2008 at 1:04 pm
I don’t think Larry @ the PowerBarn would delete things?? Maybe you forgot to hit the submit button??
We did 2 sets of curls yesterday at the PowerBarn, we’re huge!
August 21st, 2008 at 1:45 pm
Today I do have the best job in the world…had to pause the movie to go out to lunch at the country club with 1 of my swimmers, now getting ready to go for a run, do my burpees & than go home to nap before class tonight!!!
August 21st, 2008 at 2:02 pm
Jill — lol, don’t hurt yourself. See you tonight!
And, Matt, curls at the PB? I am soooo in. K– beer over at the PB — get Becky, quick!
August 21st, 2008 at 3:02 pm

PB Olympics!! Sunday at 0900.
I was thinking of 3 person teams (you get to pick your own country!!), with some individual and 1 team event. I’ll call you and we can review.
If you want to bring your volleyball net, we can play some H-Ball after .. I think there will be time.
