David and Melissa enduring presses in a brutal press/back extension WOD last night.
Let’s talk about achievement this week:
David got his first pull-up!
Melissa returned to class for the first time after downloading baby Jackson!
And Sue pulled a 1:56 for the 500 meter row.
Congrats to everyone who’s working hard and making their dreams come true at CrossFit Watertown. We’re proud of all of you!
(Reminder: Closed on Sat/Open on Sun this week.)

Congrats to all! It was a good week for sure: PR’s, dodgeball, gymnastics, some nasty good WODs, and tonights beer and baklava extravaganza! errrr… I mean grueling workout.

37 mpg. My car does better. German vs. Polish engineering I guess?

I get 40.5 MPG ( I think it is because of my fuel stores). I must get back to work…until the next diversion.

To the whole crew (especially the dirty women) congrats on all your gains!!!!!

Its ok David, I got 39.5 mpg (hybrid car, yay) – I can’t go very long without eating…congrats on your first pullup though! i bet they’ll get easier pretty quickly for you
Anyways Chris, I think its important that we base ourselves in reality – who’s really going to ever be a car…come on now

knowing how many five year olds you can take out in a fight just might save your life someday…I got a 28 so I’m safe in most areas where 5 year olds gather like schools, playyards etc…

Does anyone else but me work around here anymore??? Kidding…I can’t tell you how enjoyable it is to check out all the links when I’m in the middle of a “swimming crisis”!
I can only take on 22 kids….thats sad.

@Dan- I tied you at 28 kids so together, we should be able to handle about 3 Kindergarten classes at once.
November 14th, 2008 at 3:19 pm
AWWWW WTF?! I got 26 kids… that’s with “being trampled” experiance AND bine in 8+ fights ….. Well al least I know I can take the 10 kids on my block lol

Loved the Ablog today — of course I am too timid to post there – so i post here instead so that you all will go read it
And Lis
for the record… i would totally get a crossfit watertown tattoo (i bet everyone would, even if you didn’t give out free lifetime memberships)

Super late notice, but I am not sure how much longer I will be stuck here at work, so I might be a no-show or a late-show…..
November 14th, 2008 at 7:26 pm
I don’t believe your 5 year old numbers. I’ve taken on whole birthday parities, but only scored 18 kids on the survey. I think it’s biased against folks over 36.
Hard to type…arms still sore from pressing. Hope y’all had fun tonight.

Nate, Sue and Darlene stopped by to hit the main site WOD tonight — and they ROCKED it!!! Great work and a totally impressive effort by all three.
November 14th, 2008 at 11:27 pm
Pamela-Thanks for running the show tonight….hope to have you back soon!

I was a 39 MPH hybrid and could fight 23 5 year olds — although I feel comfortable fighting more because i think i went conservative on the violence portion

I admit I was dreading it, but last night was kinda fun. I think
Thanks Pam!
