Men's and Women's Final Results
Yesterday's WOD was by far the hardest workout I have ever done or seen. I think anyone who participated would agree. That hill is a son of a bitch!
Here I am being awarded the 2nd place medal for the event. We thought the dust had finally settled, but late yesterday I was informed by email that due to a scoring oddity I actually came in 3rd place. The event was amazing, very well run (with the exception of organizing scores and standings), the volunteers and judges did an amazing job, and the CrossFit community was outstanding as always. 3rd place is good enough to get me into the CrossFit Games in July and guess what, I still have the 2nd place medal. Travis and I expect every single one of you to attend the games on the weekend of July 10-12, no excuses for missing this event will be accepted.
We will be announcing which of our members will be on the CFES team for the Affiliate Challenge that will be taking place at the CrossFit Games. The team will consist of Travis and 2 other men as well as three women. Stay tuned for the official announcement of who will get to represent in July.
On a totally different note, when I got back to Sac last night, I stopped by the gym to unload some things, I could barely get out of the car I was so sore from the WODs this weekend. Since it had been raining all weekend, I had to dry off the new banner before putting it back up on the wall. So I grab a towel from below the front desk and guess what. It was the f'ing globo towel! So I dried off the sign, grumbled to Loren and did my 25 burpees. My point of telling you this is that I have seen that towel go through the laundry at least 8 times since the last person did their penalty burpees. Don't be a pussy! If you get the globo towel do the freakin' burpees! Its only 25 and it is not even timed. If you get the globo towel and immediately throw it in the hamper you should feel like a complete douche bag. House Rules!
One more request. If you took pictures of the event please get them to me by then end of the day today. It would be really great also if you could go through and edit out all the blurry unusable shots and the ones where you took 15 pictures trying to get the perfect one (I have 500 shots of my own already to go through). Make a CD with all the useable shots ASAP so I can start putting together some slide shows.
