  2. Jackie Rockstar Says:

    Greg you are the strongest China man I know…nice job….one more thing “Baby got Back”….

  3. Dan Says:

    Greg has nice thrusters

  4. sueloz Says:

    Greg…I watched the video this morning and I was actually talking to my monitor, cheering you on. That was fantastic. To watch you grow into the amazing Crossfitter that you have become has been great to witness. You are an inspiration to me and I know that you’ll make a great trainer because you know what its like to struggle and push yourself. You know how great it is to reach those CF milestones. I feel lucky to know you and to workout with you every day…you’re the man Toon!

  5. Jackie the Rockstar Says:

    OMG Sue don’t say those things to Greg or else his head will be as big as his ass…

    Toon I was yelling at the computer as well. I was so scared that you wouldn’t finish in time. What is the time limit? I was so proud of you!

  7. Lisbeth Says:

    The time limit was 10min. Toon’s first time doing Fran as Rx’d. He came off the first set of 21 thrusters at the same time as the dude behind him who finished in 6min something (but who did not have as good form — witness the dude’s lack of “head through”). But the second and third rounds started to get to Greg . . . and then he rallied for a great finish!

  8. Lisbeth Says:

    Oh — and everybody pay attention to the way he brings the bar down at the end of a set of thrusters. He doesn’t drop from overhead — he guides it down. That’s what you want to do.

  9. Nathan Says:

    Nice job Greg! That video really speaks volumes about CrossFit and its community – just seeing everybody (presumably) cheering Greg on through that hellish workout. I dunno, to me it is just amazing thing we have here.

    And Jackies right, check out that butt of yours, hot stuff! Your thrusters are very nice as well. Was that Yuengling you were drinking afterwards? Did you pick me up any?

  10. Lisbeth Says:

    LOL Nate, the dirty woman in you always comes out to play . . .

  11. sueloz Says:

    Lis that AVI is sooooo you…Linda Hamilton ala T2…couldn’t be more perfect.

  12. Lisbeth Says:

    Way back in the day, (as a young Lt in Saudi Arabia, spring ’92) I decided I wanted arms like hers. So I started down a path . . . In fact, I need to watch that movie again for some inspiration . . .

  13. Lisbeth Says:

    UPDATE: IMPORTANT INFO FOR SUN MORNING CLASS

    The parking lot is getting swept tomorrow morning. Park across the street or in the center of the lot where it is already clean (by the trucks). Thanks!

    Jackie…dying Im laughing so hard…

    Toon, awesome job…I’m almost inspired enough to want to do Fran again…almost.

    Sunday AM crew…anyone one up for “chicken” across main st tomorrow? 5RFT?

  15. Lisbeth Says:

    Anybody else interested in joining Becky after the Sun WOD and driving to South Windham to pick up 769 pounds of iron? You can drive my car and use my gas. (The task might need 2 cars though.)

    I thought I would be well enough to make the trip but right now it’s not looking too good for that.

    Anyhow, I’m willing to offer a discount on next month’s membership to volunteers! E-mail me if you’re interested!

  16. Mary Says:

    WAY TO GO GREG!!! How could you not finish with Nicole(I think) pinching you in the ass and whispering in your ear.

  17. Greg Says:

    YAHOO! I just got on the internet for the first time today. Thanks for making the video Lis. Thousands of other CF’ers say this all the time but it’s so true. I’m so happy I found CrossFit and the great community it has introduced to me. The L1 was a blast. I felt a little sad for some of the people I met who work out of their garage or not in a box. They are missing out on large part of what I love about CrossFit. Thanks to everyone at CFW. You all bring your own little something that make CFW awesome and second to none. Can’t wait to see you guys in the NEW space which I have yet to see. I’m planning to go tomorrow morning. So, if you see me looking around for the new space… please direct me in the right direction.

  18. Rich Says:

    Rock Star Toon, way to go!!!
    That motivates me even more for a Fran!!!
    Hope I can get Nicole to pat/I mean kick my a*s
    @Lis, we’ll help Becky with the weights.

  19. JenPCF Says:

    CFW Peeps, I just wanted to say thank you for all the well wishes. It means a lot!
    Jen

  20. Jackie Rockstar Says:
