Speaking of the Games, I'd like to say thank you again to Amanda, Matt, Tracy, Emily and Garrett for making the trip to cheer us on. It's awesome to have that kind of support, and I really didn't see that for any other affiliate. Just one more reason to love this awesome CFHSV Family.

Unfortunately, nausea trumped willpower after two rounds of Fran for me today. Major bust.

I think this was a two minute pr. I was happy and frustrated at the same time. I was hoping for a sub 4 min. and had 4 thrusters left at 3:24... I spent 40-45 sec to do my last four and had to do my last one twice for failure to lock out. All pullups were unbroken for every round. Thanks to Justin for counting reps this morning, it helped a lot. Great job to everyone at 6 am, several prs and several ppl experienced "fran" for the first time.
Tye, it was a great weekend all together. You, Robert, Kevin, and Rich all represented CFHSV with class and sportsmanship. Strong work by everyone and we all enjoyed cheering ya'll on. We had mult. folks tell us that we were the loudest and most spirited group there. We also had many others ask us to cheer for them as well. It makes me realize how blessed we are to have such an awesome group at CFHSV!

Rx'd for their first time to ever do Fran! I couldn't imagine a better way to start my morning than with you guys. Keep it up!

1s slower than last time. Everything unbroken last time, but this time I had to break up both thrusters and pullups in the round of 15 and pullups in the round of 9. I don't think I warmed up enough this time.

Everyone's performances were motivating and inspiring! I can't wait to get this boot off and get back to normal :)
Matt mentioned it below but we had strangers from OTHER affiliates coming up and asking us to cheer for them because we were so loud.
Lisa Thiel won the RX'd women's division and came to us on the first WOD and asked if we could cheer for her and watch her stuff because she didn't have anyone there. We didn't know she was going to be such a badass!! She was doing her last run up suicide hill (after smoking all the other ladies)and cupped her hand around her ears and was loving all the yelling. It was awesome!

15 seconds OVER PR. Chest congestion and constant phlegm drainage is really stomping my ass today, so I'm not too disappointed.
Headache... nausea... delirium... I hate Fran!

7:27 rx'd pr from 12:38, y'all do the math. I've got Fran brain.
Way to go lunch class. Dean really killed Fran today. Sam first time rx'd. Everybody worked really hard. Good atmosphere.
Thanks Robert, I had no idea what I was asking for.

But I didn't scale any of the pullups, so I feel like that is an accomplishment, even though the weight was less than I wanted.

3:43Rx'd. My old PR was 4:37 so Im pretty happy. Then I almost died. Thanks to Rob and Ryan for yelling at today, I have to admit by the 3rd round I wasn't sure which of you were which. nice work on the PRs everyone!
