Sue, Rich, and Curious George all share a moment during yesterday’s WOD. (Or, perhaps, this is an example of those without the power of Greek Mind Control?)
And, Mary, well she just keeps rollin’ . . .
In other news, we’d like to apologize for the lack of daily blog postings lately. The excuse would be our travel schedule/workload for CFHQ but there is simply no excuse. It’s daily blog posts or bust from here on out. Failure to post just earned a 50-burpee penalty in front of the class. (Perhaps we should have a “Failure to Post in Comments” penalty too?)

Lis, don’t worry about it. You’ve spoiled us with the best blog in the country so I think it went to our heads. I’m just glad you still do so much for us, even with your new (and many) duties with HQ. I think Melis is close to getting back into action, so we’ll hopefully see you all soon.
October 21st, 2008 at 11:16 am
So… many… burpees… ahead…
October 21st, 2008 at 12:39 pm
can we sub 120 burpee pull-ups for time ?
October 21st, 2008 at 12:50 pm
Kirk — thanks for understanding.
Chris — why not just do them twice?
Rich — no. As prescribed by Lauren on the main page.
But feel free to do those 120 b-pu AFTER the WOD.
October 21st, 2008 at 1:10 pm
Are we back on doing the main site WODs?
I know, I should come to class to find out but its not going to happen until next week…
October 21st, 2008 at 1:52 pm
@Lis- I checked for today’s WOD last night so i didn’t do any burpees this morning. I’m glad I checked early!
October 21st, 2008 at 2:06 pm
Well I’ll be doing this one at home tonight…looking foward to tomorrow night (note: opinion may change after tomorrows wod has been posted)
October 21st, 2008 at 2:24 pm
You all better hold Lisbeth to this burpee deal! I want numbers and video!
Great Rowing cert last week! It was awesome to meet a few of you at the evening WOD.

New CFW WOD It’s called “Rusty Nail” it’s a bunch of Crossfittish stuff with a 50 penalty burpee buy-in. Who’s in.
October 21st, 2008 at 2:40 pm
Followed up by a couple of Rusty Nails in Highball glasses? Just curious…
October 21st, 2008 at 2:41 pm
Ah, somebody’s been reading the Affiliate Blog!
I might be sick tonight, I think I’ve been coughing up CrossFittum.
October 21st, 2008 at 2:42 pm
And who’s going to make fun of Jen from Potomac CF for not having a Gravatar?
C’mon people, we have a standard for ridicule to uphold!
October 21st, 2008 at 3:02 pm
BAH HAHAHAHA OMG I CAN’T BELIEVE JEN FROM CF POTOMAC DOESN’T HAVE A GRAVATAR YET! ANYONE WHO’S ANYONE HAS A GRAVATAR OMG THIS IS TOO MUCH LOLOLOLOL!!!!!!
*POINTS AND LAUGHS*
October 21st, 2008 at 3:03 pm
How was that?
October 21st, 2008 at 3:32 pm
*slow clap*
October 21st, 2008 at 3:33 pm
@ Chris, Jen is a hot Crossfittish babe from CF Potomac who was visiting CT. and MOP invited her in to run a Sat. WOD. She agreed only because she wanted to work out with that animal Chris. Oh well, so much for Gravatars’
October 21st, 2008 at 4:02 pm
@Rich- I met Jen last week. She taught me that the PVC pipes make excellent musical instruments! Oh, and I think she was trying to correct my form or something. Clearly, I only remember the important stuff.
October 21st, 2008 at 5:19 pm
@Rich – what is this Rusty Nail wod? I want in. I think.
Jen was nice, she taught me I don’t need a running start to get into a handstand
Which is nice, not as dramatic, still nice.
October 21st, 2008 at 6:40 pm
Well thank you Chris and Rich and Nathan…You guys rock! Anytime you want to learn some more CrossFittish shit let me know!
Oh and how the heck do I get one of these CrossFittish Gravatar deals?
Holy Crap Lis has started her own CrossFit vocabulary!
October 21st, 2008 at 7:24 pm

Remember, Google is your friend.
It’s very CrossFittish.
October 21st, 2008 at 7:56 pm
Lis – Thanks for tonight! 10 rounds for time…I’m happy I can still move my arms.
October 21st, 2008 at 8:20 pm
@Nate, Check out the affiliate blog for “Rusty Nail” comments.
@Jen, Please come back anytime. Sorry for the attendance on Sat. Maby will see you in Potomac some time (if you get a Gravatar).
Isn’t MOP Lis the best (more CFW vocab.)
October 21st, 2008 at 11:08 pm
Rich, you’re mixing your info or your liquor, or maybe both.
Jen was here on Thurs and Fri.
Pamela was here on Fri and Sat.
The Pin Shop Liquor Store was open all of those days.
Coincidence? I think not.
October 22nd, 2008 at 4:46 am
What’s the time on Lis Posting? Seems she’s pushing the time limit a little!
Burpees?
October 22nd, 2008 at 7:14 am
My apologizes to both. Iron Mary pointed that out to me as well.
Jen, it was nice working out with you and hope to see you again soon in CT. or CF Potomac.
Pamela, thank you for being their on Sat. only wish we could have had better participation for you.
Lis, thank you for setting me straight (as you always do) now that i’m sober.
October 22nd, 2008 at 7:36 am
Rich — not a problem! And your spelling is BEAUTIFUL this morning! Where’s Taylor now to see that?
Oh — and everyone ignore Jen and that “time” of posting thing. We don’t need strangers coming in and stirring up trouble around these here parts.
October 22nd, 2008 at 10:06 am
So, I made it through 9.5 rounds last night before the onset of hand rippage. As much as I wanted to finish out the WOD rx’ed, it would’ve been just enough to destroy my hands so that I wouldn’t be able to enjoy the awesome squat mélange coming on Thursday. Still, 102 pullups is nothing to shake a stick at. That callus shaver has made a believer out of me.
@Jen- You need to come back. I couldn’t get the PVC pipes to make noise yesterday
And Lis loooooooooooves burpees so much that she said she’s going to go 100 of them today! What dedication!
