October 23 workout
October 23, 2008
Surprise WOD tonight was the Physical Abilities Requirement Evaluation (PARE). Sub 4:45 puts you in the RCMP. Sub 3 puts you in SWAT. Then we did max pushups for fun!

CrossFit is not just for young, fitness-frenzied athletes. It’s scalable so that anyone, of any age or fitness level can do it.
Check out this video of Sister Madonna Buder. She is the living example of one of my favorite quotes – “You don’t stop playing because you grow old; you grow old because you stop playing”

I hate surprises! Just tell us what we’re doing already…. pretty please!
Wow! Sister Madonna Buder is beautiful and inspiring. Her friends worry about her getting hurt, but I think her spirit would suffer if she were to stop doing what she loves.
Like Jeanette, I want to know what will we do tonight!
Shit another mistake in my sentence…
…what WE WILL do tonight!
In due time my friends…
BURPESS!!!! LOTSA BURPEEEEEES!!!!!!!!!!!
Did the PARE in 2:30…and boy did it suck hard!
3:17 for me!
It was fun and harder than I thought!
Tomorrow will be rest day for me in preparation for the race saturday!
But I will still come and look at you guys suffering.
That’s an awesome-looking RCMP officer. I love that picture.
CFWU x 3
Deadlifts 3-3-3-3-3
135-155-170-185-195
I wasn’t ready to stop so I tried more… 3-3-1
200-200-225
No PARE test for me. Yes the jump scared me (I admit it), but my leg was sore and it is causing me serious pain right now. I think it just needs rest and probably some stretching and cracking. Feels like an alignment issue.
CFWU x2
PARE – 3:42
Max Push-ups – 20
The PARE was harder than it looked, but I liked it. Would love to try this again…
i first heard of sister madonna about 4-5 years ago – she’s amazing! a hero!
