A suicide bomber killed seven CIA officers
and one Jordanian officer at a remote base in southeastern Afghanistan
on December 30, 2009 after posing as a potential informant reporting on
Al Qaeda. Seven new stars will be etched onto the memorial wall at the
CIA where every star represents grieving friends, family and colleagues
dedicated to fight against the enemy, forever in their name.
Killed in the attack were CIA officers Jennifer Lynne Matthews, 45;
Scott Michael Roberson, 39; Harold E. Brown Jr., 37; Darren LaBonte, 35;
Elizabeth Hanson, 30; and security contractors Jeremy Jason Wise, 35,
and Dane Clark Paresi, 46.

Coaches Notes:
This is a hero WOD, therefore these typically take longer than a normal WOD to complete. Today's workout will be capped at 45 minutes. Scale accordingly by using appropriate weights and shortening the rounds if necessary. The Elite CrossFitters will be able to finish this wod between 19-25 minutes.

Two things..
ReplyDelete1) When Austin M was at our gym for a seminar, he did this sub 18 minutes. Let's see who approaches that number.
2) What is an interesting story in which you used CF outside of the gym?
Aim and I were at Whole Foods the other day after a long drive from my parents house and all three of us just wanted to get home. I needed to push the cart back to the stale but I could not fit in between the cars so I just decided to pick it up over my head and carry it there. I didn't really think about it but it was the most effective way to finish quickly.

thruster/deadlift
Great effort today morning crew! Way to stay after it and finish all 7 rounds Pete and Ellie...Welcome back Dianne L!!
last comment was actually Vin, but it wouldn't let me sign it...hmmm weird.
ReplyDeleteI was helping my boy Andy, set up boxes for his garden of fresh veg last weekend. We were using 30lb stones and tossing them to each other as we placed them. It was kinda like high rep dead lifts followed by kettlebell swings (the toss). Also when you caught a stone you had to organize your spine by creating tension through your mid-line in order catch it properly. Crossfit Gardening baby!!! What What
This is also Vin...
I was like...oooh, Sarah welcome to the 6:00AM crew! haha!
ReplyDeleteat 7 + months pregnant I climbed into the attic to get Chloe's water tower out and carried it down the ladder. Certainly no great feat, but I'm sure most non-CF prego ladies aren't doing that...
I gave my nephews flying elbows off the couch... does that count?
ReplyDeleteI was walking my dog the other day and a 4-wheeler came speeding down the trail which scared the living daylights out of him. He wouldn't move so I had to pick him up and carry him about 50 yards. He's a 50lb boxer and the biggest baby ever.
ReplyDeleteWhenever I fly and I need to get my suitcase into the very tall overhead bins! Before Crossfit I would look for a nice person to help me lift that bad boy up and in there.
ReplyDeleteI arm wrestled my friend who I have never beaten in the past. I tore his radial collateral ligament. #Oops
ReplyDeleteI am the yearbook advisor for my high school. I can lift boxes with 40 hardback oversized books in them with greater ease than my students who are 1/3 of my age! Yay for deadlifts!
ReplyDeleteMy 55# seven year old thinks is normal for her to still be carried when she is tired.
ReplyDeleteBut sometimes CrossFit is a problem too!! When i ask Vincent to move heavy things (and laundry baskets), he always brings up my deadlift. I'll keep my girl card..damn you CF! ;-)
My dog was injured and I had to fireman carry him to my car and into the vet's office. He's a Great Dane.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in Costa Rica I got caught out with a broken leash in the impact zone when surfing. We were about 1/4 mile off shore. The waves were about 8-10 feet that day. I was out there with a guide and had to take a few waves on the head before the he could get to me and help me back in. To be honest I was starting to get a little panicky being out so far with such big waves and deep water. Eventually the guide got to me and helped me back in with his board. We made it back to shore safe and sound. The guide turned to me and said that if i hadn't been in as good of shape as I was he wasn't sure the situation would've turned out the way it did. He commented that he has pulled more than his fair share of people from the water before and most people were too tired to help themselves when he got to them. I like to attribute that to crossfit. I definitely see the difference in my abilities in the water pre and post crossfit.

welcome to Sandeep and Edwin to their first KoP class! Whoa, what a doozy of a first class, I hope you come back. Kudos to those who stuck with this for 7 rounds...at first this doesn't look bad (7 reps each, no biggy!) but then round 3 kicks you in the a$$!
