Sakura looks very focused as prepares to launch herself into some thrusters at the Level One Certification held a few weeks ago in Union City. We joke with Sakura because she was 'star struck' with all the big names of Crossfit being on hand for the Certification. Freddy C., Jolie and Nicole Carol just to name a few. Sakura plans on doing 'Fran' at 6,000' today so we wish her luck as the rest of us slug it out with:
"Mr.Joshua"
Five rounds for time of:
Run 400 meters
30 Glute-ham sit-ups
250 pound Deadlift, 15 reps
Post time to comments.
I knew we were going to be punished for having a fun day with bench press and max rep pull-ups I just knew it!
hold crap that was a good fight....good job to everyone today....
so i could not do the rx 250lb dead lift 15 times..so i scaled down to a 205 lb dead lift....final time was 34:56...which is way better than my last...of 43:20 hahahhaa....
TURKEY WOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HOLY FRICKIN' COW! Come to find out it was 7000' and I went from 7 and change to 9:42. I almost killed myself doing kips on the tower they had so I attempted to muscle my way up half the time.
Doing the first 21 was horrible. I couldn't even do 7-7-7. I was like 4 deep and was already tired! The weight was nothing but it was the breathing. Dang. Well, at least I know I can handle the weight better! Haha!
I wanted to film it but my mom went with and she did her work out and had to go to work. Dad stayed home with Kaela because she was still sleeping. Dude. Who ever gets up at 430am (CA time) to do Fran is nuts...or just a star struck CrossFit nerd.
BTW...I already knew Jolie and Freddy. It was Nicole that blew me away! Trust me, we've already gone on our Santa Cruz celebrity drive with Annie, Rob, Brendan and Shari. Super awesome people! Even did a WOD at Santa Cruz Central. Now I need to meet Eva T.
