15.1 gets released tomorrow.

I should be well rested for it. Haven't been to the gym in 10 days.

Sn: 185
Cl & I: 245
Squat: 330
DL: 405

Rumor around my box is that 15.1 is going to be the burpee mile.

1. I hope the frick not

2. Just don't see how it's possible and our box is huge (TWSS)

My Oly lifts are still lacking. I'm still correcting an early elbow bend in both lifts. Bad habits from muscling everything up for years.

Hopefully this time off has help my plantar fasciitis heal. I have a night splint that I can wear a few hours a night that totally stretches out the issue at the heel fascii insertion, but the knot/tightness slowly reappears later in the day.

However, it feels much better these last 10 days.

One of the guys at the gym was raising money for OLOL. He pledged that he would do a burpee for every dollar raised.

3 days and $799 later, he did 800 burpees today in 2.5 hours.

i think they generally dont do distance workouts in the Open because you cant verify video entries

Good luck man. One of my friends is Jordan Troyan from the games... He literally trains all day every day at this point.

One of the most gifted and natural athletes I ever met.

Swimming would be about the only WOD that I could keep up with these guys.

I don't know. Jordy finishes first in swimming at the finals every year.

Swam in college, and dominated the lifeguard races when we worked there together at the shore.

I swam through HS.

Hated doing the butterfly, but, luckily, you won't see that stroke in a CF comp unless someone is fricking around.

saw a video post by Castro earlier today on his instagram, they were rehearsing for the live shoot tonight, they had 2 girls doing pullups and pushups. My guess is they were trying to throw people off, but it could also have been legit. who knows. I want to say not legit cause they werent doing hand release pushups

I was hoping for a half marathon. I would put me high on the leader board. Obviously it ain't happening for reasons others have suggested.
