I am looking forward to this workout. I am feeling froggy today so I think I can make good time.

As for the NY Times article, I chuckled. Outsiders really think that CrossFitters are scary-insane gym-Nazis. Ignorance abounds. Since when did immense strength and power come so easily? Easy is lame-o and for weenies who don't know the meaning of hard work and perseverance!

I agree Jamie--about the second part of your comment. I'm not looking forward to the workout AT ALL!! LOL

I hope to get there early so I can do it before kickboxing! God help me!! Lunges kick my BUTT!!!

I loved the commnet "Your workout is our warmup." We should have that put on a shirt.

I have the shirt! I got one from Crossfit Charlotte when I was down there for the certification and thought they were pretty funny. I got jason one too. This workout was a leg-burner...I like that! 7:19

Ahh..Just read that article and had to comment again...It is amazing how people can actually get paid to write about things they are completely clueless about, let alone have them published in a national newspaper! While, unfortunately, crossfitters are not, and probably never will be the "norm" in fitness (because most people are too damn lazy and the work is too hard) if more people would adopt half of the work ethic, perserverance, patriotism, and sense of community dedicated crossfitters have the world would be in a lot better shape (literally and figuratively!) After working in the fitness industry for over 5 years nothing has helped improve my mental or physical fitness level more than a few good crossfit workouts!! Looking forward to many more!

I REALLY want that shirt!! How can I get one?

Jamie said:

9:02. I am pretty happy with that!

Lisa Wallace said:

I found out who actually coined the phrase and he has t-shirts, so I sent him an email asking for one. I will let you know what he says. Maybe we can get more from him.

Jamie, considering you do the workout by yourself w/ people often bugging you while you are trying to focus, that is an outstanding time!

marvellous(manifold) locality. So to authority!
