Oh sweet Jesus, you must be kidding.

Less fun than I expected. And, my expectations were low.

Mercy! I'll say it...Mercy Mike!

Considering the Rx'd weight, Aren't the 2 elements of this WOD redundant?
February 15, 2013 | Unregistered CommenterFranklin
Franklin, I can't comprehend your question.

Bob you are unhappier than I expected and I didn't expect you to be happy.

Scott, I grant you mercy.

Andrew, if it makes you feel better, maybe tackle this one naked?
February 15, 2013 | Unregistered Commentermike
Nope. I was happy to do the WoD. Obviously, I was delusional. It was a fit ending for a sucky week. And, a reminder that I need to push the prowler more often (which really won't take much).

18 Days benches!

Heavy old bench or light and easily movable new bench?
February 15, 2013 | Unregistered CommenterCurious
Mike, perhaps I can help you comprehend. By the 2nd or 3rd thruster, I'll probably be power cleaning in order to get through the 15 freakin' thrusters. Then 15 more power cleans. Have you reached more comprehension yet?

And for the love of everything that is good in the world, why did you tell Andrew to do this WOD naked?
February 15, 2013 | Unregistered CommenterFranklin
Curious, quit baiting Bob. He is still grieving over the unceremonious departure of the old heavy benches.
February 15, 2013 | Unregistered Commentermike
Franklin, squat cleaning the weight would be way more efficient. Comprehend that? I was just trying to make Andrew feel better.
February 15, 2013 | Unregistered Commentermike
Oh, thanks Mike, but I'd have to squat down too far in a squat clean.
I'd rather just do a power clean and then "thrusters."

Does Andrew need to be naked in order for you to make him feel better?

As I am recovering from a genetically engineered strain of Ebola I regretfully had to miss this glorious wod. I assume Cunningham somehow poisoned me to keep me away from the bench. I would note for the record, however, that the bench portion of this wod would take over an hour in and of itself.
February 15, 2013 | Unregistered CommenterPoole
10:41 I think. 3rd round of thruster add a whole new level of suck.
February 15, 2013 | Unregistered CommenterFranklin

Where is McGee? Still imploded?
February 15, 2013 | Unregistered CommenterFranklin
He decided to implode on a bike today... New venue same outcome. My hope that 9 months off the bike would not be noticeable was, in hindsight, a faulty theory. See you Monday.
