I'm planning in going to apex...who else is going??

Aimee Lyons said...

As of right now, we will be having the 6:00AM class. However, we are under a Winter Ice Warning until 4:00PM tomorrow afternoon.

If we get the anticipated 0.75" of ice tonight, the roads may not be safe to drive. We will make the determination at 5:00AM tomorrow morning.

If the morning class is canceled, Nikki will post to comments saying that it is canceled. Please check the blog before heading out tomorrow morning.

Thanks for your understanding.

Miranda said...

I have to look into it. not sure yet.

Nikki said...

Class is on!! Up and at 'em 6 AMers, I'm on my way. Burpees penalty is revoked for today so please just drive safely!

In case I end up doing this at home, how far is 8 mats?

Nikki said...

each mat is 6 feet, so 48 feet, or just under 15 meters

Melanie said...

Just saw the Maltz Challenge will be on the 18th. I am pumped for this WOD!!!

Peterson said...

Yeah Mel. That WOD looks "fun." Looking forward to it!

Miranda said...

Im in for the Maltz challenge!

Hey guys:

Super Bowl Reminder......

If you have not paid for your squares, please do so before Saturday.

We have 19 squares left. Soooo, I need more people to join in the fun. For the cost of one square ($5), you have the chance to win $400 and it is all LUCK. You do not have to know football at all.

If you are interested, you can go to the website below and pick your squares or you can just bring money to the box and I will sign you up myself.

For those unfamilar, we basically have a grid of 10x10 squares. You put your name in one and after all are assigned, we will randomly assign numbers to those squares. If your square matches the last digits in the score at any quarter, you win! If you are only watching the Super Bowl for the commercials, you have something else to look out for now.

Let me know your interest. Thanks.

Denise said she is doing it so squares are filling up. Act now!

Kristin T. said...

I just picked 5 squares! I will bring my money tomorrow! Thanks!

Jason Lyons said...

Only 4 left. First come, first serve. Then we press the number generator and laugh at who gets 5,5.

Bring your cash to the box. Thanks and good luck!!!

Christina - Paper Rock Scissors said...

I bought the last 4. They are shitty squares but I will dominate.

Christina - Paper Rock Scissors said...

I am also angry that Christina Carnevale didn't fit in the boxes, when Melinda Kritsikokas did. Both 19 characters/spaced.

I think this site leans Greek, not Italian. I want my money back.

Melanie said...

I need to revise my excitement for the Maltz Challenge. I forgot I am doing something a tad important the next day- LIKE GETTING MARRIED!! If I weren't away, I'd still do it so maybe I will do it at the first open gym after the Challenge.

Peterson said...

CC, now I wish I put my whole name in. Christopher Peterson is 20 characters (space included). Normally, on important stuff, I'm Peterson, Christophe.

Peterson said...

bahahaha mel. Man, Lindsey doesn't want me to do that obstacle course thing that Steph was talking about a week before the wedding... I can't imagine the look on her face if I tried to do a WOD the day before, let alone forget that the wedding was the next day!

Jason Lyons said...

NUMBERS ARE GENERATED!!!!

Thank you for all who played...just give me your money when you see me or leave it at the box in an envelope so I can pay the winners.

Good luck!

wow. that's all I have to say. you guys fought a very tough battle both physically and mentally. When co-workers ask you why you're hobbling around tomorrow, send them our way.

TP said...

If you were in the 430pm class, and know your time and weight for this WOD, please post to the blog! I am sorry for failing you and didn't get to record the scores in time! But hey, was a pleasure to coach you, so I think I was just over excited.

I do remember the rediculous-ness of Chris P and his using 95#...

Chris P. said...

uh, yeah, that was...interesting

does calling into work tomorrow for "can't walk" count?

18:35 (95)

Jeff said...

Tim, I was 17:35 Rx.

Melanie said...

14:57 RX weight but I'd give myself a DC for not getting great depth on all lunges.

Melanie said...

And yes, Plentus was an animal using 95#. Whenever it looks easy, I always know it's the opposite.

Jackie Halpern said...

I did my first Rx workout last night...though I give myself a DC cause I suck at lunges.

I believe my time was 22:38.

Anonymous said...

22& change....45/non full ROM lunges- i wouldn't even give my lunges a dc.

Lunges...what a weird word! Decieving WOD... kicked my hiney(for realz)!

Jackie Halpern said...

Steph...I think you were 21 and change. You finished about a minute before me! :)
