Victoria

This WOD has been floating around for a few weeks. It's named after one of the teachers in the Sandy Hook tragedy. The WOD's numbers have special significance:

5rft
10 Thrusters 95#
14 Box Jumps 24"
12 Sumo Deadlift High Pulls 95#
12 Burpees
27 KB Swings 1.5p

She was a teacher for 5 years. Her class room was number 10. The shooting happened on the 14th of December (12), 2012. She was 27 years old.

Extremely tough WOD, would do it again in a heart beat.

Jackie

I haven't done this WOD in about eight months.

Taking a Week Off

Competition Day at Blackhills Crossfit

Competition day!

I got adjusted, cracked, trained, and rested. I felt pretty good going in. It's a team competition. I felt pretty good going in. I was paired with a girl that was pretty new, but we still did alright.

WOD 2:

2 minutes rest
3 minutes barbell shoulder-to-overhead

*Each partner gets a barbell. Only one partner may be working at a time. *One of the team’s barbells must be on the floor at all times. 

We made it to the semis, which means we were able to "enjoy" the third workout.

I felt good. I liked the WODs, and felt like I did alright. I still wasn't 100%, and I could've probably done better with a more "hand chosen" partner, but we made the top 1/3, so I'll take it!
