2010 CrossFit Games Midwestern Sectionals WOD #1

 

Athlete Upate:

Our girls did great yesterday at the Mercer Island Rotary Half Marathon.  Linnea ran her first 10K and she showed up with her game face on.  After finishing at 1 hour and 20 minutes she said,"She felt great!"  Linnea has trained for many things over this past year that has been her "First" (i.e. CrossFit, Kirkland Triathalon, and Mercer Island Rotary Half Marathon)  Linnea is 100% CrossFit (Unknown and Unknowable) because she travels in uncharted land with her entire heart.

Terry ran her second half marathon on Sunday.  After 13.1 miles she looked so strong and so good!  As I watched many racers run, walk, hoola-hoop, and limp by me, Terry was one of the strongest finisher out there.  After 2 hours and 21 minutes Terry crossed the finish line with a huge smile.  This event was part of her training program I've designed for her.  Big Picture: On August 15th, 2010 she will be participating in the Lake Steven Half Ironman.
