Stilll smilin after the “300″ Challenge!
 
For those of you who showed up last night for a WOD only to be turned away by a friendly police officer, well there was a bomb threat in our building  so we were evacuated during the 4pm WOD.  Apparently, there was a robbery at the cash place at the end of the building and a suspicious package was left behind. Last I heard, there was a bomb squad coming in to investigate.
So here’s the craziest part of all, Chris Shephard ( pictured above right) was 10 pull-ups away from finishing the WOD when the police officer entered our place to tell us to get out. He refused to quit his workout so risking his life and  others (it was worth it) he finished his pull-ups! That my friends is a true die-hard devoted CrossFItter!

Today’s WOD

“Tabata Something Else”

Complete 32 intervals of 20 seconds of work followed by ten seconds of rest where the first 8 intervals are pull-ups, the second 8 are push-ups, the third 8 intervals are sit-ups, and finally, the last 8 intervals are squats. There is no rest between exercises. Your score is the lowest number of reps performed in each exercise.

Post lowest number of reps from all exercises to comments

    I love the dedication Chris. I didn’t want you to stop either, I was waiting to put your time on the board.

    The worst part is that I left my cooler in the building, which had my afternoon snacks in it:(

    I guess someone is trying to tell you to cancel the 4pm class after all, eh Lance?? lol.
    Way to go Chris! I think I would have chosen the rath of the police over the rath of Lars as well!

      Not meaning that I was happy to miss the WOD…just that the WOD was canceled is all.
