Sunday, December 12 'Whitten'

Another hero workout that left us dead and dying. OK, I'm exaggerating a little bit, but this was a long session. At least we didn't have to worry about over heating...

'Whitten'
 5 rounds:
22 KB swings
22 box jumps
400m run
22 burpee's
22 wall ball shots

Casey- 61:50
Todd- 49:30
Chris- (4) 51:00
Lisa P- (1) 13:05
Emilee- (1) 13:05
T- 51:24

Prescribed height for the box jumps was 24 inches, along with a 2 pood kettlebell (70 pounds), and WBS at 20 and 16. The weather wasn't too much of an issue, but it's kinda cool running in the snow. Felt great. It would have been much easier, and tons more comfortable to have stayed home on the couch beside the fire, watching a football game today. Good job on getting way outside comfort zones, and getting in a great workout.

Where did you hit the wall? For me it was the end of the second round. Blistered, I realized I still have three more rounds. At that moment, it occured to me that thousands of people all over the world are getting this session, and feeling EXACTLY as I am right now. Good motivation to get fired up.

The Snow Crew


This session is named in honor of Army Captain Dan Whitten, 28, who was killed by an IED February 2, 2010, in Zabul, Afghanistan.

We had a visit from Lisa P's sons, great athletes who both appear to have the circus monkey gene. Welcome to CFSF, we hope you like it and make it back for more.

Monday is a rest day. Use your time off wisely. Hit the mobility blog, find a few for those tight pillar muscles and joints. Feels great and gives us the flexibility CrossFit demands of us. Thanks for all the terrific efforts this week. Thanks for coming out and braving the snow. What a blast!

Be someone special
