    Cool Beach WOD video = Good Surprise
    “TBA” for Mondays WOD = NOT good surprise

    Preparing for the unknown is one thing…”Not Knowing” is horrible for my OCD…

    August 13, 2012 at 12:57 pm #

    :( … SHOOT!! I was soooo happy to returne to the gym today, but Im gonna have to cancel it… My legs wont allowed me to run all that. :(
    Could I still go and do something else on my own maby?
    I have an apt. at the doctor this week… Tried everything from physio, to massotherapy, they just keep beeing numb, and its been over 4 months now so yeah… I guess I’ll go visit my doctor. STUPID LEGS! lol

    • Kevin
      August 13, 2012 at 1:06 pm #

      Scale the run, row, skip, KBS….

      Yes, go see your doctor right away

      • Nadine
        August 13, 2012 at 1:19 pm #

        Yes, I have an apt. made for Friday…
        Alright then, I’ll be there tonight :)

      • Lora
        August 13, 2012 at 1:24 pm #

        Glad you are seeing your doctor, Nadine. I hope you get some answers. This has to be very frustrating for you. Hugs.

      • Nadine
        August 13, 2012 at 1:34 pm #

        Yes, very frustrating Lora… :(
        I NEVER used to wake up at night! With 2 kids, when I hit the pillow, I SLEEP and I sleep good… but lately, I wake up every half hour, and my legs feels like they’re 100lbs,,, Its frustrating, yes, and scary… :(
        And the scariest thing is that its not only my 2 legs… both my arms too…
        Just hope the doctor dosen’t just send me home with exercises to do like she always does… Tried that with physio, didn’t do a thing…
        But enough with the whinning!! lol I hate complainning! Im super excited to go back tonight! Too bad I had to miss the beach WOD… be cool if we have another one before summer’s over! Why not?? :D

      • Corinna
        August 13, 2012 at 2:23 pm #

        Just read your post Nadine and it really concerns me. Kevin is right, go see your doctor right away and be persistent until you get answers.

      • Nadine
        August 13, 2012 at 3:40 pm #

        I will…
        I wont let her send me home with exercises to do… like I said, already tried that!
        There must be someone she could refered me to.. like someone who specialise in “pinched nerves” or something… I don’t know, I have no idea what this could be… but hopefully she’ll send me to the right person…

    Holy bananas!!! That was a doozy! I somehow managed to enjoy it. Mainly because my clean and jerks have greatly improved (thanks Jo!). I think I could of went a little heavier if I had a little more energy (weekend was rough on me).

    Was another race with Lora!! the last 800m was very challenging as I thought I was going to puke but refused to slow down since I know Lora was going to pass me if I gave her the chance!

    Good run Lora!

      Way to go Corinna! 110# is no joke! Thanks for the encouragement to do Rx. Without that, I would have scaled for sure. :-)

    Thanks for letting me do the whole thing, Kevin.. That was the farthest I’ve run so far this summer and I didn’t want to scale it. My running needs a lot of work and I was glad to be able to push my cardio. Great workout.

    Did this with 65# last year in 27:30…run times likely similar but C&J took a lot longer this time.

    Wasn’t planning to do this Rx, but I caved to peer pressure. Thanks Marie-Noelle and Corinna for setting the bar. :-)

    Great race on the runs Val. You are fast! You kept me going for sure. One of these days I’m going to catch you!!

    Awesome job 5:45 crew!

    I’m going to say that this was the worst I’ve felt after a Wod in a very long time.. it sucked the life out of me, apparently eating a bag and a half of popcorn, Large pop, and a double size mars bar yesterday at the movies may not be the optimum way to prep your body for a wod like this? lol.. who knew? :) live and learn, great lesson!
    Great job 6:45 class.. everyone did a great job today in this heat.

    MOB
    WU X 1 (with T2B)

    Clean and jerk group practice
    Strength clean & Jerk
    70-80-90-100-110-120-125 PR of 5 on the cleans

    WOD ABBATE scaled

    800 m run
    21 c&j at 70% (85#)
    400 m run
    21 c&j
    800 m run

    As usual the running was difficult and sadly I was the only one at 4:15 scaled – even though it was the right decision it still burns. First 21 Clean & jerks were the hardest – I didn’t really have a strategy, but 2nd 21 were better (5-5-5-3-3) 70% was perfect weight but my palms have new raw spots below my pullup callouses. Ouch!

    Stayed for Mobility class.

    To all who did this in the heat and didn’t scale – you guys are hard a$$e$ in the extreme!!
