Mr. Tanneran - "Hey Louden, you think you're overextending yourself on this Shute challenge?"
Louden - "Definitely."
Mr. Tanneran - "You know you have a tendency to do that."
Louden - "Sometimes you got to, remember? This is like one of them times."

DNF

Have participated in two CF competitions, and have been DNF twice. CF Houston Summer Challenge was a train wreck - not nearly strong enough on deads, heat was an absolute killer, and I was literally pale as a ghost I was so nervous. In way over my head, and did not help that the wkout was centered around one of my biggest weaknesses - the dreaded deadlift.

lateral burpee

Recent CF Champions Oktoberfest Obliteration went better. Great weather and atmosphere, and I was in better shape and much less anxious. I had to repeat 7 reps due to less than perfect ROM. Had I not done that feel pretty confident I would have been middle to back of pack. All in all it was a very fun day and a great learning experience - got to spend morning with my best girl and met some really nice people. And breakfast at Taco Cabana after with Amy and Tracy Lev REALLY hit the spot. Anyway, hopefully one of these days I will at least finish one of the WODs in competition. Lots to work on...................
