Tamas, great vid. Hardcore training in the basement with your head just fitting between the beams. Inspiring! Way to go -- no excuses permitted, obstacles overcome.

Dorothy said...

Nice Job Tamas! That's awesome. I love that you have a whiteboard in your little corner of the basement too. Also, I love that last smile. very inspiring.

5:30 and 6:30 One Word

Athletes scored themselves with one word. No hyphens and no contractions. Compound words allowed. (Some applied that rule liberally)

Paige "Phils"
Shawn "Sal"
James "Cadillac"
Flounder "Griptastic"
Kate "bleh"
Sandy "awesomesauce"
Mike P. n/a but coach appointed "Doubletime"
Lizzie "mono"
Borden "BLAAAAAAAAARGH!!!!!"

Minjoo "oorah!"
Conn "snow"
Zac "prestigeworldwide"
Akeem "speechless"
Sheng Ching "waddle"
Miranda "BAMF"
Josh "Kamari"
Justin K. "wowsers"

not every round had perfect rotations, but I'd rather a little confusion with high intensity than the opposite. nice work folks, esp. those getting over the wall for the first time.

@ Kate . . . "bleh"???! Really??? That was some serious badassery! Getting over the 8ft wall was pretty damn impressive.
