Jackie . . . do we need to say more?
In other news, we’re actually going to be in town this weekend, so raise your hand if you’d like to do an Olympic lifting session on Sat morning at 10am. (We’ll even throw this one open to the dreaded Power Barners. Max class size is going to be 10, so reserve your spot.) Cost is free for this one, just cause we love the Oly lifts!
Also, Donna and Matt of MaD CrossFit got mad at us and decided to move to New Zealand this summer, so we need to throw a “Good Riddance” WOD/social in their honor. How’s Fri/June 5th look? Let’s talk in Comments.

In for the oly lifting session on Saturday.
May 28th, 2009 at 8:57 am
Can’t we just say we’re sorry to Matt and Donna? Or is it too late for sorries
May 28th, 2009 at 9:07 am
forget the Power Barners. They think our strength bias training is foolish.
May 28th, 2009 at 9:12 am
Congrats to Migs on First Place Today! I am in for Saturday at 10am!
May 28th, 2009 at 9:13 am
Foolish? Ah, give us quotes and names, Migs!

Pulled from the comments section of PB’s WOD
“I heard CFW is headed into their last 2 weeks of CFSB .. thought we’d show them the folly of their ways”
May 28th, 2009 at 9:27 am
I’m in for Saturday but I thought Becky had a track meet. Also, what does this do to the 8am class as I’ve missed shoulder presses for the last two weeks?
May 28th, 2009 at 9:29 am
Power walking is where it’s at!
May 28th, 2009 at 9:33 am
Kirk needs to stay out of my lime light….Saturday I will be out of town but would really really really love to focus on oly lifting….how can we work this out?
May 28th, 2009 at 9:51 am
Ah, yes. The folly of Strength Bias. Nobody should listen to Jeff Martin or results anyhow! What kind of creedance could they have anyhow?
Tomorrow at the PB: “The Earth is Flat.” Special Bonus Lecture: “Toning: It’s Not Just for Women!”
May 28th, 2009 at 9:57 am
A party for MaD !? I’ll get my dancing shoes.
May 28th, 2009 at 10:00 am
I’m in for Saturday.
May 28th, 2009 at 10:00 am
Today we are doing power walking for time. With 3# DBs. Because that’s just how we roll at the Power Barn.
May 28th, 2009 at 10:11 am
Every time someone posts without a Gravatar, a kitten explodes. Please, people. Think of the kittens…
May 28th, 2009 at 10:11 am
replacing the 3# DBs with growlers of “dirty penny ale” would make that WOD acceptable.
May 28th, 2009 at 10:13 am
Now THAT is a WOD. I think Migs should do all the programming from now on.
May 28th, 2009 at 10:16 am
*Hears the faint pop of another kitten exploding in the distance and sighs*
May 28th, 2009 at 10:19 am
Fixed it Chris — I had a PG rated gravatar and apparently this is a G-rated site. Who knew?
May 28th, 2009 at 10:19 am
But I kind of like killing kittens….
May 28th, 2009 at 10:26 am
…And BOOOOOM!!!
May 28th, 2009 at 10:47 am
I am willing to bet we, as in myself and my 255# deadlifting wife (30 pounds behind my max) are in for a Saturday morning of lifting of heavy things?
Unless it is full already. Then we shall do some more power sleeping.
May 28th, 2009 at 10:53 am
I’d like to reserve a front row chair to watch the oly lifting & learn but not to participate.
May 28th, 2009 at 11:08 am
Ohhhh Pamela is edgy… I knew she was one of us!
May 28th, 2009 at 11:47 am
Barry — I am going to go to CFW @ 10am. The team will be excited at the idea of a 7am practice so that I can make it to watertown in time!
May 28th, 2009 at 12:05 pm
@ Chris, way to late to say sorry.
@ James, so long as your dancing shoes aren’t boat shoes.
@ exploding kittens, well that is just wrong!
May 28th, 2009 at 12:09 pm
Now I am just pissed at Barry…..all those poor little kittens.
May 28th, 2009 at 12:15 pm
So are there any spots left open for the Sat oly hour?
Friday the 5th works fine for me…
Is James H the NEQ James H?
Am I the only one who actually does own a pair of dancing shoes?
May 28th, 2009 at 12:28 pm
@ Dan:
1 I don’t know
2 works for me too
3 I think so
4 YES!!
May 28th, 2009 at 1:09 pm
I wanna see a coaches pic of JenC!!
May 28th, 2009 at 1:22 pm
Damn, there goes another kitten!
May 28th, 2009 at 1:24 pm
Dan-
If we’re oly lifting on Sat, you’d BETTER be there!
And weaksauce…just google “Conlin’s scar” and you’ll find a variety of pics of her on the internet!
May 28th, 2009 at 1:29 pm
@Matt- I fear that we may never learn from our horrific, kitten-exploding mistakes.
May 28th, 2009 at 2:45 pm
Okay, so let me see if I got this right so far for Oly lifting at 10 am on Sat. 10 people max — of which only 3 can be non-CFW. Oh — and my better business half reminded me that perhaps this should be an optional “Throw a couple of bucks in the bucket for the CFW Equipment Fund” kind of thing.
Anyhow, here’s what I got — make corrections if I’ve messed up:
1.) Migs
2.) Becky
3.) Barry
4.) Pamela
5.) Nate
6.) Nate’s Woman
7.) Dan
8.)
9.)
10.)
May 28th, 2009 at 2:52 pm
well if Sue signed me up then I’m signing her up for 8.)
May 28th, 2009 at 3:37 pm
Anyone up for happy hour Friday after 5pm class to send Jill off..she’s heading out of town for the next month!
Idea’s welcomed!
May 28th, 2009 at 3:54 pm
There goes another kitten. That’s just sick.
May 28th, 2009 at 3:54 pm
I must have lost my gravatar.
May 28th, 2009 at 4:06 pm
@Janice: No real kitties harmed! LOL
Updated list:
1.) Migs
2.) Becky
3.) Barry
4.) Pamela
5.) Nate
6.) Nate’s Woman
7.) Dan
8.) Sue
9.)
10.)
May 28th, 2009 at 5:54 pm
I’ll be back at cfw maybe for the noon WOD tomorrow. I’ll be traveling week after next and the week after that. No go for me for the BaD… I mean MaD send off.
May 28th, 2009 at 5:56 pm
Let’s try to kill this kitty one more time….
May 28th, 2009 at 8:55 pm
Thanks for posting, I truly liked your newest post. I think you should post more frequently, you clearly have natural ability for blogging!
May 28th, 2009 at 9:09 pm
I will totally be there on Saturday for the OLY lifting…woohoo!
