Welcome Fountain AO
Please accept my apology for a slightly tardy BB. YHC has let VB weekend and a work week consume him. Conditions a little cool this morning, but 7 PAX gathered for some hills or OnB. Disclaimer given and we headed out. All returned safely by 0600. Announcements Many thanks to Dixie Chick for the Fountain […]
Job
Conditions: 47 degrees YHC stepped in at the last minute to Q for Uncle Jessie. UJ always Q’s, so it’s the least YHC could do for him and the pax. The Hero WOD chosen was Job, named after Seal Ryan Job. Ryan Job was a true American hero and warrior. His incredible story of how […]
Tougher than it sounds
7 pax posted at Red Friday to test themselves with a CrossFit Benchmark WOD. Typically we try to find a Hero WOD to honor a fallen hero, but on occasion we’ll go with a Benchmark WOD. Conditions: 62* with an occasional drop of rain. Disclaimer: Given Chelsea: 30 Minute EMOM (meaning you do the prescribed […]
RED Friday 3/9: JASON
7 pax gathered in the cold at RED Friday to honor S01 (SEAL) Jason Dale Lewis. Most of the pax who have been around for a while usually expect me to choose a Hero WOD with a good bit of running, but today I went in a completely different direction and chose a workout that could […]
Murph Madness
8 faithful Red Friday PAX showed up this morning to tackle what is probably the most popular Hero WOD across the planet, The Murph. I like to spring it on the PAX at Red Friday from time to time as it accomplishes a few things: It has some running Usually takes about 45 mins No […]
REDFriday – Weaver
Timely BackBlast writing and publishing are not my strong suit. If I don’t sit down and write them within the first couple of hours after a workout, then it usually takes me multiple days to circle back to them. This is not a habit I am proud of. Part of the duties of Qing the […]
Easy On The Legs….
I started the morning hitting snooze twice. As I was laying in bed putting off getting up, the Red Friday AOQ texted and said that a 2.0 was sick and he could not make it. So, I got my butt up and got in gear. Since I was dealing with a shin splint, my plan […]
Where are the Bootcampers??
After a desperate plea to the PAX to attend Red Friday, I was hoping to see a decent crowd. Unfortunately it was not to be. But 4 PAX gave a go of the Wittman hero WOD. More about Wittman: U.S. Army Sergeant Jeremiah Wittman, 26, of Darby, MT, assigned to the 1st Battalion, 12th Infantry […]
Red Friday sometimes sneaks up on ya
9 pax met for a 20 deg Red Friday WOD honoring Captain Dan Whitten. When selecting this workout, YHC tried to find something without pull-ups, to honor AOQ’s request. A lot of the WODs have pull-ups! Whitten was selected because it looked innocent enough. Little did I know, it wasn’t innocent at all! Work was […]
Missing The Cold, Kind Of……..
A group of 5 PAX got up and got better in the gloom. The weather was eerie. This morning felt like Summer compared to the 15 degrees that we had a few days ago. It was actually a little difficult to adapt to the humidity after adapting to the freezing temperatures. We honored Danish Army […]
