Forgot the little RX, and also forgot to thank Laura for making the most amazing treats ever, which I will be enjoying again today, in the corner of the office, in the dark.

Why is it called “Granny throws?” Why can’t it be called picture someone you don’t like on the wall and throw the ball at it as hard and as fast as you can? But I like everyone, so you can call it that.

What a weekend! First comp jitters replaced with calm and laughter as the Fenway crew assembled Saturday morning. Through the heat and the wods I couldn’t have asked for a better support crew from my fellow competitors (Cal, Shorty and KP)to my wife Jen and my mom (came out from NM to check it out!) and Hudson, Eric, Erika and all the rest. I had fun and I look forward to doing it again soon!

PS: 63 very ugly kg’s
WOD: 13:36 Rx. The key to the granny throws is to find a med ball that is perfectly round (not football shaped like mine) so it will actually bounce back to you.
