I challenge you!







Before I get into my little challenge, I just have to applaud my better half Jenny for her fantastic effort at the Games i Aromas.

Jenny finished 26th of 90 something women competing in the event. After the first workout which was:

5 Deadlifts

10 burpees

5 rounds for time


Jenny had the 3 fastest time of all. Her second workout of the day was:


The hill run

After this event Jenny was in 5th place of all 90 something girls!

Then it was time for the final event of the day- the revised "Fran". The rules had been changed a little for the Games, so to get a legit rep on the pull ups, you had to make contact with the sternum to the bar!

Revised Fran:

Thrusters
Pull ups

21-15-9

On this workout Jenny had a hard time getting the required height on the reps, and after this workout- the 3d of the day- she was in 32nd place..

On the second day there was only one workout- a heavy revised"Grace". Bring the bar from the ground to fully extended arms above the head, through a full clean! Jenny did a fantastic job on her first "Grace" ever, and at the end of the day she had finished as 26th overall!

It is a fantastic job, and the fact that she came of a penicilin cure only 3 days before leaving for the Games, and she got the complete opposite order of the workouts than she wanted, only makes it more impressive! She is an inspiration to everyone, and I am thankful to have such a wonderful person in my life!
