Here’s one for you, Aaron!
…well, it would be if it wasn’t going to be raining!
” Rest as needed ” ?
How about “2009″?
Did I mention I HATE RUNNING?
I love how every time running comes up Steve says, “did I mention i HATE running!” bahahaha i find it hilarious!
Steve HATES running.
I would like for Steve C to be an afternoon person, so that we can have an “I hate running” contest every time it comes up and during warm-ups if we are feeling particularly persnickety.
I, too, hate running. Every single freakin’ time.
What a blissful photo of Jane! – bathed in warm light and gazing peacefully up at God. Or perhaps Damon, who is a god of sorts. I didn’t know CrossFit could be so spiritual.
I brought a baseball cap and my cruddiest shoes today. I’m right ready for a really rainy run.
…don’t forget to notice the pedicure …! Terri have fun sloshing through the rain – just be careful of the 40mph wind gusts that are forecasted – you are hard core!
Uh-oh.
I got lucky – the weather was great!
4:51 | 4:59 | 5:00 | 5:07
looks like i lucked out along with nanci and jared….caught this morning’s workout before the rain and 40 mph wind gusts. thanks to you both and ofcourse laura for convincing me to run that last one. i didn’t want to get left out! see you tomorrow for some more!
terrrrrrrrrrrrible T – hope to see you in the am tomorrow ! Jared glad to hear you are feeling better – Nance – I am sorry you had to run
…and Rabbi R – red becomes you !
Just call me Rabbi Rubenstein!
morning crew…..see you bright and early and sara w. says hi!
i forgot to mention before….feel better damon.
The voice told me to wear a 30 lb vest for this workout. The rain intensified as I progressed through my sets…kind of exhilarating.

Please, oh please, oh please tell me that the vest comment is a joke.
um, no. I do believe La Mar deserves the “Hard Core” award today! Kudos to both Steve and La Mar for running in some pretty heavy rain this morning – what a way to push through it!
I need a new gym. I don’t fit in there anymore!
Did I Mention I HATE RUNNING?
So, let me set the scene for you.
I’m grousing to myself at CF RX. Pacing and mumbling.
But, I paid for the month,so,OK, I’ll run. Even though it’s raining. I’m warming up and in walks La Mar. And, he does this ungodly Cirque deSoleil warm-up…you really have to see it. MY joints creak just watching it.
So, then La Mar finishes his pretzel Cirque deSoleil warm-up and he grabs a vest. Mind you, I’m still talking myself into staying and working out…in the FRIGGIN’ RAIN. So, La Mar has his weight vest…and he starts stuffing in weights. And he’s stuffing and he’s stuffing and he’s stuffing. I didn’t know those vests had so many pockets. ‘COURSE, I WOULDN’T BECAUSE I HAVE NEVER WORN A WEIGHTED VEST! Why would I?…I’m 60+ lbs. overweight.But, wait, that’s not the end of it! I’m doing my running and La Mar PASSES ME. And, he’s pulling away! Like he’s got a NASA jet pack strapped to his a$$. I’m telling you…aliens have landed and they are among us. La Mar, you are one awesome athlete.
DID I MENTION I HATE RUNNING?
Steve,
THANKS for the play by play! HILARIOUS!!!!
Emily…Seen plenty of Rad lately.
How are you? If the painters show up early enough, I will be in tomorrow. Hope to see you then.
I needed that laugh! HeeeeLARIOUS!!!
Hilarious, Steve!! Thanks for posting that!!!! You deserve TONS of credit for running in that awful mess, and I saw your times this afternoon — they were GOOD!
Steve, I have missed you too! My times have been so sporadic lately. Maybe we can race with our weighted jackets next time!
You’re a comedian Steve…it’s always fun to work out with you.
Went over to CrossFit Atlanta and did this nightmare that Mike made up:
50 double-unders
then, 5 rounds of
5 squat cleans (155/110)
10 ring dips
15 pull-ups
finishing with 50 double-unders

Judy, we missed you while running today. I hate running too. That’s to Teresa for setting pace for the rest of us. 4:09. 4:30, 4:22, 4:17. Don’t ask me how I got faster!
oops. miscalculated my times.
4:09

So bummed. I’m stuck at the office tonight and the sun just came out! Perfect time to run. Will have have to make this up on Saturday…
Lucked out and didn’t have to run in the rain. I stayed more consistent each round than I did the last time this workout came up. Somehow I got faster on my last round…I think cause I was trying to catch up to super speedy Aaron!

gassed after the first run; ran instead of sprinted the remaining 800s
After finding the more recent compare to date, I saw that 3:02 is my old PR – therefore, no PR today.

Very uncomfortable. Soaked to the bone.
Loved it.
Did I ever mention I HATE RUNNING?
Was going to just carry La Mar on my run but he was not available.
Had to just slog it out…
