"Mr. Joshua"
Five rounds for time of:
Run 400 meters
30 GHD sit-ups or Abmat Situps
250 pound Deadlift, 15 reps
I *highly* recommend scaling this, particularly if you are new to Crossfit. Discuss with your coach, but there are many ways to scale it- you can decrease the number of rounds, the weight of the deadlift, and/or the number of reps. Please don't let your ego get in the way. Please. And, guys, you know who you are... ;)
Please remember: EFFECTIVE MONDAY JANUARY 26, there will be the following additional classes: Monday, Wednesday at 5 pm; Tuesday, Thursday at 6 pm. The current schedule won't change- we're just adding to it. Also, please don't forget the first Matrix class is tonight at 7 pm, and there will be a Lift Seminar on January 24th at 10 am. Newbies must attend the Lift Seminar! :)
And... Matrixers, I'll be setting up your own private blog/website area today (Wednesday). I'll have that info for you at our first class. Looking so forward to seeing everyone! No laughing, please. The swelling has gone down a great deal, but I still look kind of... weird. Well, weirder than usual.
Wisdom tooth status= one dry socket. Ever had one? Post experience to comments. My personal feeling is that it's the dental equivalent of Murph.

I was lucky enough to have 6 wisdom teeth. The 4 regulars and 2 extra ones up near my sinus cavity. And yes, they were all removed at the same time. Talk about good times. I too suffered the vicodin/antibiotic vomit fest. Apparently it's not a good idea to take medication while not eating and swallowing large amounts of blood. Who knew? The animal I most resembled at the time was a cross between a chipmunk and the elephant man. Jenn, I feel your pain. I've been having flashbacks all week. Look on the bright side. Having your wisdom teeth removed may be the dental equivilent of Murph, but you never have to do it again.
Ah yes... dry socket.
Thought I was in the clear after a couple days of recovery (all 4 out at the same time for me, too) - then I got the horrible, terrible, agonizing pain throughout my entire jaw in the middle of the night. The waiting was unbearable. To make matters worse, they basically stuff some sort of medicated cloth directly into the affected sockets. Ouch! I feel your pain, Jenn.
6 wisdom teeth, Deanna? You must be a pretty smart lass! Or at least, you were...
Awww Jenn ... you look so cuuuuute! A little furry, but cuuuuute! And look at Kim the comedian!
Mr. Joshua is not as bad as he seems. Apparently I was going slower than I thought; but then again, I have time-challenge issues anyway. My 29:54 I figure is decent (though I think 15:00 is top notch). Not that I know anything about proper form, but I would caution people to be sure to emphasize good form on the deadlifts, as high reps for time can sometimes give way to bad habits (that will hurt later if left uncorrected). On the run: screw form, get sloppy, run naked for all I care. Oh wait: yeah, run naked. :-p
Hi Crossfitters,
I do miss everyone at class but unfortuneatly I'm nursing a few injuries. I did the "Fran on the move" at work yesterday and wonder if I did something wrong.
I ran 400 meters,then 21 thrusters, 21 pullups, 15 thrusters, 15 pullups, 9 thrusters, 9 pullups, round 1. I did this twice more for a total of 3 rounds. It took close to 1 hour to complete and I look at the posted times from 10 to 20 minutes. Am I that out of shape or maybe I did more? I need advice.
Thanks
Great job today! Good to see you all pushing yourselves with this one!

Andy, YOU are a wild man. The WOD was run then 21s, run then 15s, run then 9s. YOU get extra extra credit for what most of us will come to hate you for: creating a new WOD called "FrAndy."
Frandy- I like it... I like it...
;)
Jenn
Well on one hand is nice to know that I'm not as out of shape as I thought. I feel a lot better today after my Chiropractor Dr. Kennedy popped my bicep tendon back into place. I LOVE crossfit!! Really!!
OF COURSE I'm doing the Matrix! To preserve space, they didn't list my Joshua time, which I did at 5:30am (I did a different one at 7pm). THANK GOODNESS FOR PRESERVING SPACE! :-)
