Notes (to myself) about this workout:
I had a lot of fun working out with my nephew, and wish he could train more with me. I forget how great it is to have a training partner, since I do all my workouts alone. We both agree that working out is about doing, and not about winning or beating everyone. It's great to hear that from someone who is so competitive. I brought him and Marc to last week's workout, where they had to do walking knee lunges for 400 meters. They asked me why I didn't workout with them and I said, "Because I need you two to still respect me!" Much to my surprise, Theo was happy that I worked out with him today. Good times.

It had been a while since I worked out in the afternoon and I forget how popular CrossFit has become. Also, the folks are still great! By the way... though I haven't been doing full-on burpees with the push-ups, I've been doing sprawls, which is a big thing for me because I hate those things - or anything related to burpees. Yea for me!

Finally, Freddy posted the top three male and female performers of the day. Though it didn't last long, there was a 30 minute period where I made the top 3. It was the most glorious 30 minutes of my CrossFit life. ha ha ha!
