Really enjoyed being a spectator today. You all did great.

Stacy, the food was the highlight for me.

Guys, how come they have two peg boards and we have none in EHT?

I am proud of all of you, but for those of you who feel they have not acheived their personal goals for this challenge, there is only one person to blame.....

I think I'm finally recovered. What a bear of a workout! Great job everyone! Awesome seeing everyone today.

Mark, Nick, and Staacey thanks again for putting on such a great event. So glad I got to bring my family. My mom thinks I'm crazy and my dad was pretty pumped. I'll have to post the name of this new prison workout book he's reading. He's nuts.

Thanks for the push today Mark. Awesome having you as a coach!

You guys are my heroes!! Thank you for inspiring me to push through even when I don' want.

Justin O said...

Another great event at OTG! Thank you Nick, Mark and Stacey for continuing to go above and beyond!

Before today's event I was thinking, "why do I do this to myself"....I was a nervous reck. However, the feeling afterwards is soooo worth it...well after the feeling of vomitting!

I couldn't be prouder of everyone, it was so insipiring watching and working out with you all!

Justin O said...

Nipur, you are classic!

Justin O said...

Doug, so cool that your family got to watch you kill it. they must be so proud. You deserve it brother!

Nikki O said...

Awesome effort by all! Thanks for a fun event Mark, Nick & Stacy.

Sixty days ago I had no kip at all. I struggled with red band dead hangs, my toes had no idea where the bar was and didn't even have a double under on my radar.

Well, I am thrilled that I can do pull ups unassisted, I've even RX'd a couple of pull up workouts. My toes and the bar now are friends and I can even do a double under. DU is very much a work in progress...gotta stop jumping up to my chest and swinging with my entire arm but it's coming along!

1st WOD: 19:26 / red band for pull ups, T2???, 250 singles and purple band on ring dips.

I did the exact same w/o today...

2nd WOD: 13:25

Michelle, THANK YOU for the in my face push. I loved it (I swear)! and to (my) Justin for the reverse phychology push! :) It worked!!!

It was great meeting more "Williamstowners". Theresa, we'd loved to see you in EHT! Keep me posted!

Fun time today!

Breeze said...

Mark, Nick, Stacey cannot thank you enough for everything you did today and always do for us.

Congratulations to everyone who competed in the Challenge's and for our PR and Paleo winners.

Great, inspiring energy this morning.

I have to say I was real nervous going into today's challenge and being in the last heat. But the feeling after it is done is so worth it, I guess that's why we do this.
