1,000 meter row and Tenbatta's

We hit some great benchmarks yesterday in class, 3 in particular that will bear repeating;
1,000 meter row, 5 Minute Kettlebell Swing test, and Tabata Barbell Push Press with a fixed load. I posted the top 5 performances from our CrossFit home-team on the record board.

I enjoy seeing your effort in the midst of a tough circuit and then continuing to coach you to even greater performance output. I enjoy seeing the camaraderie, intensity, teamwork, sport, and strategy in our group workouts. I enjoy seeing individuals break personal records and others set class records. Leaning a new skill, making a movement more efficient, performance, effort, determination, commitment, the guts to; "lay it all on the line, all the time", inspires me and inspires us all to continue to evolve.

I have seen our fiercest competitors and "Fire breathers" be awed and humbled by the heart of a raw beginner. We all have our own unique background, our own unique goals, our own strengths...be inspired, very inspired:

The outputs on this workout are AMAZING! Even with finals this week Elise rowed in 4:10! Way to go! Next time though I'm stealing Vivek's idea and getting the row out of the way first instead of last! :P

Yes - doing the row first was a GOOD thing - how do you think I got in the top 5? :)

Yes - I know - I'm a dork!
