The best feeling of this workout was after they released this WOD Thursday night, many people text me and told me this was MY WOD! No lie, I was kinda excited about it. Due to clients traveling over the holidays I was going to get to sleep in before taking on 14.3 at 1pm on Friday with the crew. We moved the WOD to our Burnet location to avoid the dreaded SXSW traffic…and let me tell you it was plenty!
I got there early to warm up and finalize my plan…I wasn’t alone. Many of my teammates were up there so we shared ideas and our plans in effort to help each other out…we are teammates…its what we do…its why we are good. I opted to go in Heat 2. With all the people that needed film, we all were either judging, keeping track of ppls rounds or lifting. Needless to say we were all BUSY! Since my good looking photographer was hired to take pics at this event, Lubke of the 6:30am GGRX class took my video..thank you!
First heat I judged the famous Jessica Estrada…
This gal…my best friend and forever training partner…has one hell of a story…you should check out her blog! After watching her dominate this workout…she gave me a few tips…
Then I was up. First it was deadlift,
then step aerobics…I mean box step ups….
I had one goal and that was to knock out as many of the 205s as possible. I had Carey as my judge who also knew my plan and kept me on track. She helped me through every transition.
I finished with a score of 169 which means I made it through ALL my 205s and completed 9 box jump/steps! HUGE thanks to the the crew that made the atmosphere so full of energy it is hard not to go full throttle!
Also thanks to Sylvia who is a first time athlete who also came to cheer us on..not only during 14.3 but during 14.2 as well. I’m so proud of you and the athlete you are becoming! Your mindset has shifted and your confidence has grown…its fun to watch you grow!! Keep on dominating…we are rooting for you!!
Also big thanks to my sponsors Rock Materials, Grayhawk Insurance and V23!
