Today was the Toys for Tots fundraiser at the local Derby City CrossFit. What is great about CrossFit is that even though all the gyms in the area are not owned by the same people we all still manage to come together like one single community at any given time.
The WOD that we chose to do today was Fran. Now if you are not familiar, CrossFit has a few special WOD's that they have named after people. Some after men and some after ladies. Fran is a workout that goes like this:
21 Thrusters (95/65)
21 Pull-Ups
15 Thrusters (95/65)
15 Pull-Ups
9 Thrusters (95-65)
9 Pull-Ups
FOR TIME
This is without a doubt one of my least favorite workouts. It only takes me about 6:15 to do it, but when I am done I am on the floor with the urge to vomit. Each gym, Derby City and CrossFit Louisville East, had there own elite team consisting of two females and three males that went head to head in the very last heat. Now that was interesting to watch. As I suspected out team killed them. But it was all done in good fun and we raised tons of toys for the local children.
This is why I love CrossFit. Always coming together for some good friendly competition and always changing it up. My trainers are always pushing me to do my best and making sure I don't slack. I am stronger then ever and confident this will take me far, keep my life happier, and keep me strong. Its a lifestyle and I love what it is doig for me.
