It was fun to workout with the group this morning. Thanks!

We'll see most of you on Monday morning.

Thanks to you as well, Pam...hopefully Jason will be in on Monday. The cheddar broccoli diet can only last so long.

Hey Rob,

I was in on Friday, at 6am, you know, the day everyone decided to sleep ibn.

RSR3 said...

Sleep in, or try to recover from 4 days straight of 6AM WODs...I think I can make 5 days a week, but definitely not 6...sorry I missed you on Friday...See you on Monday?

Happy Festivus Everyone!!!! The holiday isn't over until someone pins me in the Feats of Strength.

I know that Rich, Rob, Dr. D, and Jeff are doing 12 days on Monday, maybe Sammy too.

Under 34 minutes, who can do it?

I'm aiming for 32 the next time.

Greg, Happy Festivus right back at ya! We are planning the 12 Days tomorrow...I'd like to start doing a workout like this at the beginning and end of each month to keep sights on our progress. I would actually like to try Angie in the new year...it took me about an hour in a non-Crossfit gym with other members getting in my way!
Happy holidays everyone, and I'll see the 6AM crowd tomorrow AM...

By the way, even though this is a no-whine zone, is there any chance whomever posts the WOD will do so before 9:13PM tonight? I want to know what the WOD/warm up will be before we do the 12 Days. Thanks!

To the Whiner...

I can't guarantee that I will get tomorrow's WOD posted before 9:13pm this evening, but know that tomorrow's WOD focuses mostly on metabolic conditioning.

12 Days can be done lieu of the WOD or if you're crazy enough you can do them both, but I suggest 12 Days first and then any other workouts to follow.

As for the new year... We will have 1 workout each month that is harder than the daily WOD. You can do the 'Challenge' workout during any of the open gym times. I will also let everyone know when I plan on doing the 'challenge' workout and if you want to get it in then you are also more than welcome.

It's a great idea to test yourself for improvement, but keep in mind about bad training days, illness, poor recovery, etc. If you'd like to test yourself on Annie, we can set that up for one morning, and then you can use that workout as a milestone marker going forward.
