  1. Great article about the Tough Mudder and Crossfit. I could not have said it better. That was exactly how I felt after completing two Tough Mudders. That being said, Tri-State Tough Mudder in November, any one interested?

  2. My posterior chain is fried. I NEVER thought I'd be happy to see burpees in a WOD.

  3. 30 seconds of rest aka just enough time to reset the clock. :)

  6. It looks like I left my jump rope. It's the frayed one with the white tape on one handle. Please don't throw it out. Thanks

  7. Did the tough mudder in April at Bear Creek..very brutal..I think we saw every single slope not to mention the surprise of 2 extra miles then expected.. Considering the tri-state will keep you posted :)

  13. For Game of Thrones newbies, this is a good spoiler-free (though commenter's may ruin that) character reference:

  14. considering the tough mudder in November I would imagine is whole different undertaking than April-Sept! being wet and cold must be extra special.

  15. So I just re-read the workout and realized that I did 10 DU's instead of the 15 each round. Only 10. So once Cate posts my "results," please take them with a large grain of salt as I just flubbed this one mentally. :-/

  17. Ohhhh. Good idea Charles. I'll just blame the wife!

  18. I did the first part of this WOD at my house, post-lawn mow. 7 rounds of 10 burpees/15 DUs. While I still suck at burpees, I can still bang out some DUs, which made me happy. That is all.

    I will fall off the face of the earth again...now.
