November 8, 2008 R/M/S


Alright guys- it's make up day! Or skills day! Or (here's an unpopular idea) rest day! It'll be Jenn's House of Pain on Saturday morning, so if you are going to come in and workout- be ready... ;)
85 pushups and going strong. It seems like just yesterday we were in the single digits (sniff).
I felt like everyone needed to see this pic- it's Jim's pic from his blogger account.
Do you think that:
a) Jim is attempting to look suave/doing the lifting one eyebrow, "elementary my dear Watson" type thing
b) Jim was slipped a mickey, and awoke to find that half his beer had gone missing
c) there's nothing exceptional about this picture/this is just Jim's natural state
d) Jim is in the middle of doing Guinness Fran, and forgot what rep he was on
e) make up your own funny possibility (like in the back of the New Yorker)

I could tell you what's actually going on, but I feel the guesses will be more interesting.

Dr. Jenn is having single-digit nostalgia, so I'm giving her a break on the single-digit miscount. I'm even throwing in a single-digit extra push up for her.

86 done, and an extra for fun. (Photo inset: Seasons' greetings!")

Jim is a smart guy, if you ever order Guinness on tap you are aware it takes about 5 minutes to settle so as your drinking one, you order another - "Genius"

I think that Jim drinks 2 guiness for breakfast every morning. And he's pretty crabby until he finishes all his guiness. Here, he is giving someone the evil eye b/c they had the gall to talk to him before breakfast was over!

Have a good weekend guys!

Oh: I thought it was make-out day, so needless to say I wasn't too thrilled to see Jim, Jeremy, and Luis when I got there. Dr. Jenn quickly disabused me of my misperception.

Did the 40rx/30x2/20x2/10x2 ringdip/decline pushup WOD (26:06) and the 100 meter overhead carry WOD (95# x 4). Ring dips sounded so easy; I spent 19 minutes on doing 40 ring dips and 40 declines - when I simply double dipped on the tire, it took me 7:06 to do the rest of the WOD (*sheesh*).

Jim's girlfriend made him hold her beer while she went to the bathroom--at least she didn't make you hold her purse dude. Jim's kinda pissed and thinking to himself, if she doesn't hurry up, I'm drinking her beer. Meanwhile Jim's buddy with the camera is making fun of him for having a girlfriend who can't hold her liquor, and my guess is Jim would be flipping his buddy off if he had a free hand.

86 done. This is Jim the day he first heard of the Crossfit & Beer workouts. He immediately rushed to the bar to get his Guiness. The picture was taken just seconds after "Murph" was explained to him.

86 are unday (that's piglatin i think) jim is thinking do i drink these or go to the bathroom.i'm thirsty but i really need to go...

Excellent possibilities guys. The real story is that Jim just realized his other beer (a third) was missing. This morning was lots of fun- we had a good time. Jeremy did Tabata for the first time (always a great experience), while Jim the International Man of Guinness Mystery did double unders and GHD. Lisa tore up the run/squats workout, and Liz made carrying weight overhead for 400 m look easy. Luis ran up like the wind and did the dips & pushups workout *again*. Mustafa already reported in, much more wittily than I ever could.

I was at the Guinness factory in Dublin and had managed to scam two free beers. The look is due to the fact that my brother had just said that he didn't really like the taste of Guinness. I gave him a look of disgust and then attempted to locate his beer so that I could drink that too.

Pushups completed.
