The morning crew took on an ambitious workout this morning, making the most of the last WOD before our holiday break. We modified a workout from CrossFit Old Town
Everyone thought they had escaped…but they hadn’t. This was the REAL end to the burpee Burpee challenge. Of course, we had to give George, who was still in the challenge until the end, a chance to check his improvement. And beyond that, we weren’t letting everybody off the hook that easily. Even those who had dropped out of the challenge early saw some amazing improvement. However, John still beat everyone and now holds the record for CFSP.

Afterwards, Chris drew a card from the Hopper Deck to find what everyone would do next. He drew “Nancy”: 5 rounds for time of 15 Overhead Squats and 400m run. It was cold and raining so we substituted 100 rope jumps for the run. Check out the pics.
After 100 days of burpees, John completed the Burpee Challenge today. Thus ends the burpee challenge (or does it?). Check out the video of him shattering his old time and raising money for charity (it’s not too late to pledge). Awesome John. I know you already miss the challenge (I think you have a burpee addiction) but our next challenge in January will be something new to shoot for.
Of course the burpees were just a warmup for John so he went on to do 10 rounds of 5 ring dips and 5 pullups
