Nicole Gordon CrossFit Games 2009Nicole Gordon came in second at the Mid-Atlantic regional qualifier and I had the honor of getting to know her even better at the Level 2 Certification in Montclair NJ. Nicole, mother of 2 and her husband Jeremy own CrossFit Hampton Roads in Virginia. During the CrossFit Games, Nicole smashed her finger on the stake during the fourth event. She finished the event in spite of the pain and blood, and was treated by medical. It appeared she had fractured the finger, so she was sent to the ER. X-rays revealed no fracture, so she raced back to compete in the final event of the day. Congratulations on an amazing performance Nicole!! You are a true inspiration!

then 10 standing jumps on a wall there (measured it afterwards and it is 45" high)
Just want to take responsibility for the lack of concentration when counting for Tim Pappas. I MESSED UP and thought the WOD was 5 rds for time. Tim Pappas was counting on me and I screwed up. Sorry Tim and I promise I will do better next time.
ReplyDeletejust had to say that my hub came up with a kick ass level 2 workout! I am so proud of him for putting up exercises that he knew would be challenging for himself. see everyone next week finally! i have a feeling it might be a metcon night! anything is better than class! anything!
ReplyDeletePaul- Aimee counted this morning when I re-visited the WOD. no worries.
