And between everyone else I know bailing and I just not being able to get caught up. I’m considering this a FAIL! :-(

Missed again :-(

So I made up what I missed from last week, but missed another day. My sleep was just off this week, and on Thu I finally crashed when I came home from work so I never got around to doing the burpees for that day. And I haven’t gotten around to making them up yet either.

… at least I’m still going!

Starting to get up there in the numbers now. Missing a day is getting a bit daunting… and what did I do on Sat? Missed it :-( So I should have done 2485 by the end of the week, but instead only got up to 2415 burpees.

I did make the 70 up the next morning.

This week included me finally getting back to the gym again and the start of the Crossfit Games Open. And wouldn’t you know it, the first workout was burpees. So with the completion of the Open WOD 12.1 on Sat, it brings me to 1596 burpees (plus an extra 15 from Open WOD which don’t really count towards the challenge).

* CrossFit Games Open WOD 12.1

 

The games have officially begun! Since it was the first workout of the games and I’m part of the Santa Clara team, I figured I should do the WOD there even though Mt. View is closer to home. So Sat morning, had my espresso and headed down for some burpees….

Open WOD 12.1:

As many reps in 7 minutes of burpees (with a 6″ target for jump).

Results:

71 (with 2 no-rep)

In the range I expected (70-80), but was hoping to get 75. If it wasn’t for the no-reps, I probably could have made 75. But still it was good and I was DONE afterwards, so way was going to try it a 2nd time (or 3rd as some folks did). I guess I’m not quite as recovered from my cold, as my lunge where burning for a good part of the day with some nice deep raspy coughs.


Oh, and this included 56 burpees towards the burpee challenge :-)
