Post Times and Comments.
As everyone knows by now on our Grand Opening Day Saturday 8th August we will be holding challenges and a workout to raise funds for charity. All profit's raised on this day will be donated to the Starlight Childrens Foundation Australia!
"Each year there are over 600,000 child admissions made to hospitals across Australia. Sadly, Starlight reaches only '1 in 3' of these children. Starlight's ultimate goal is to reach each and every child.
As a not-for-profit charity Starlight relies entirely on the support of the community and the generosity of supporters to exist."
The cost for entering the day's challenges/wod and activities will be $20 payed on the day followed by a BBQ to raise money for Starlight.

what did I do wrong to deserve this!
i have one word to say bout this workout....
*evil eyes*
I'm gonna have to scale the weight on the HPCs unfortunately. Can't seem to get past 30kgs, and its starting to annoy the hell outa me!! But the double unders will be a good challenge. Mine go something like 1, 2, miss, 1, 2, miss, swear, 1, miss, swear.
Inez, I hope to be there to train with you, but I only just got home from work and its 1:30am, so no promises! Haha.
I'm there man....its gonna be fun....I'll bring some grog.
Will do this one this arvo.. Looking forward to it - havent done HPC's before..
Tracey, im with you, I will be scaling it down to suit me too :) I can pick 40kg up but it stops there.. :P
I love scaling.
I 'd do 50 kg HPC and scale 25 DUs
Ha Ha Nez somehow i don't think it works like that :) Crack that whip !
Im suggesting the scaling Nez - I don't want to be spending the full day with the kids! That'll kill me!
No way nez, I don't know if have missed you but if I haven't I will watch the kids!!!
That last post was from me
JONO
Had a great time last night, good to have some solid instruction on those oly lifts. Also good to meet you guys, calves are better now thanks Carter. Will remember to drink water from now on, and not do the Crossfit Endurance WOD before going SFX!
Great time again, probably going to Globo tonight but see you over the weekend.
5 rounds of DU's? I'll still be there for the Saturday morning session! That's no exaggeration.
The DUs were a killer this morning - where were you Robyn, Bren and I were looking forward to catching up with you!! :-)
Claire, your times this morning were great. My first round took my nearly 6 minutes! The second took me 4mins and after that I got the hang of DUs. I though I was going to be there until saturday.
On a personal note, I got a PB on my dealifts after the WOD. Its only 70kg but I was so glad to finally crack the 70. And it can only go up from here.
Ali: I'm soooooooooooo with you on that one. I might need to take my breaky :P
wicked stuff on Deadlifts and DUs Trace! Sorry I missed this morning, I had to take kids to bday party.
and calves are killing me from burpees yesterday.
well done on your PB Tracey! I hope I can lift that much once I start building my weights up - only come back to training this week after about 4 weeks off.....I know my calves are going to kill tomorrow after the DUs
No probs Inez, I didn't get there until nearly 10am anyway. One of these days we'll do a WOD together! If its a bodyweight type one I may be able to keep up. anything with heavy lifting you'll leave me behind though, so be prepared for that!

WICKED SHITE CARTER - You smashed those DU's!!!
Good crowd there for the WOD tonight.. :)

thats really good time.
20.05 with 20kg HPC's
I thought I'd gotten away without DU injuries this time, but nope...a purple knuckle has appeared.
Hows the legs Carter??
Thanks again for all the support and encouragement guys :) sometimes hard to keep yourself going when you always finish last :p
oops! I should also add that I did 30 DU's instead of 50. I'd still be there if I'd done 50 :P
13.17 with 20 kg HPCs and because I haven't mastered the DUs (yet!) I did 150 singles each round.. couldn't do it in primary school, and still can't do it! haha. ouch astrid - good on you for doing 30 still!
good workout though
cheers

11:46?? As rx'ed
my legs and forearms hurt from all the whip marks. Scored a wicked migraine post wod. Reckon I must have been straining my neck trying to get the double unders. Still happy with that effort.
Round 4 was the worst as I tasted the satay from late lunch in my mouth
Was I really riverdancing during the warmup???
Double unders baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One more goat down!!!!!!
