    First time wearing my Oly shoes. Wow. Felt great. I was even able to do a pistol. Whoop.
    Was thinking this WOD would be easier than Fran, then I remembered that there are still 45 thrusters….

    I agree with Amanda, the 6 amers were AMAZING!! It was quite humbling, but also inspiring.

    QOD – We rarely watch TV, but when we do, I want to laugh.
    Favourite silly shows: Arrested Development, Friends, and How I Met Your Mother

  10. Chantal L.

    QOD: TV? People still has time for that ? All joking aside – I don’t watch alot of TV but when I do I mostly pick something to watch on Netflix – movie or documentary – Anyone watched Hungry for change ? It’s a great documentary that wilmotivate you through the Paleo challenge. Funny part is my parents got me to watch it after 2 years of me telling them how most food they ate was crap and they didn’t believe me = best x-mas present ever 🙂

    Face off with Mario was fun and intense! Could feel him breathing down my neck the entire time.. Helped push me. Glad I decided to lower the weight down 10#. Still recovering from Victoria 🙂

    Great job nooners!!!!

    1. Mario

      During WOD (in my head, round 3-4):

      “Damnit he’s still 4 reps ahead, what do I need to do to catch that him?!?!”

      Nice work bro!

    Really enjoyed the Friday Nooner time slot!

    QOD: Big Bang Theory hands down. I think I’m addicted – I keep watching the same episodes over and over. The university faculty jokes are soooo much like real life!

  19. Amanda

    QOD: The Office, Survivor, and Biggest Loser. Thankfully Survivor and BL are only seasonal, I wouldn’t have time to watch if they were on every week.

        In an interview the guy in Arrow was asked how he got his great body. The guy eats Paleo (not the word he used but that’s what he descibed.) Seems to be working for him 🙂

    First deadlifts in over a month so I was worried where my weight would be but pretty well where I left it for 5’s so pretty happy with that. Fran made me cough (first time that’s happened with Fran) so overall I think that was a “great orkney” for me too!!
