I have to say that you Irish men were the best! I had a blast with the workout and all the chuckles - I'll be back for sure. Wasn't impressed with my Fran performance - I checked my log and realized I did it faster in October at the same weight... maybe I was nervous to perfect my squat form so Will wouldn't yell at me. I promise to come back with super good form. If any of you are in Chicago soon, just let me know. Scott - thanks for the ride home with the cashmere scarf - it was much appreciated!

So I tried my hand at a 5k and I came in at a breezy 30:20. Yes folks, that's right over half an hour to run five kilometers. Luckily I had anticipated this and brought along a magazine to read when I got bored. I understand why all of my metcon numbers are tanking but I don't understand why my strength numbers are so far off as well. Maybe I'm not moaning enough? Will, your such a stickler sometimes.

For some reason this was the first sentence I saw when I glanced through the comments. Will, respect. “You know, I’ve always preferred WAILING on my cattle.”

I had it up to my chest (twice in fact), i just couldnt get under it for some reason. Maybe the 5x5 power cleans i did yesterday had something to do with it. Last week at training we were doing 5m sprints for a minute, with a minutes rest in between, three times. I swear i have never felt my legs start to seize up as bad. well the cycle home i had was not pleasant, ill say that much!
