R.I.P. Amanda Miller. I know this isn't a hero WOD, but I'm crushing this one for you.

RIP

Go easy Amanda, we'll take it from here.

I am so blessed to have competed side by side with Amanda in Aromas and to have connected with her via email beyond Aromas.

She was a fighter. She was full of life and optimism the few times we spoke and in reading her blog. Cancer may have over taken her body~it did not over take her spirit.

Fly free my friend, fly free.

Best,

Kim Malz

Rest in peace, Amanda.

is it As rx'd when I do knee-push-ups in the Burpees? Is that allowed in the Games for instance?

WOW! That sucks!!

Did she have cancer while competing?

RIP Amanda. I'll say a Hail Mary to you sister

I picked a hell of a week to switch my workouts to the a.m. Bring it

I picked a hell of a week to switch my workouts to the a.m. Bring it

Oh my gosh.. What happened to Amanda?
She was at the sectionals last year at my gym and did so well. It was fun watching her. Not good at all

No.

I mean yes. RIP.

Damn. RIP.

holy bent arms batman, could easily save yourselves a lot of effort on the KB swings in that video if you straightened your arms out.

R.I.P. to Amanda, that is awful to hear.

just read her blog, incredibly heart rending. the hardest line to read was when she wrote that less than a year ago i was competing at the games and now i'm dying. saddening to see such a display of life taken from this world too soon. my condolences to her family.

Sad to see another young life ended too soon because of cancer. As a cancer survivor myself, this hits incredibly close to my heart. Tomorrow my WOD's for Amanda.

RIP Amanda

Rest In Peace Amanda. This WOD is for you!
-JD

Amanda inspired me at the Games last year. I'm sure she will be missed by many. Support, joy, and remembrance to those who knew her.

So young, such great loss. Amanda worked out with us here in FL 18 mo. ago. Competitive and courageous to the end. Peace to you, Amanda. I'll definitely be doing this WOD for you.

I was lucky enough to have Amanda kick my ass on more than one occasion. RIP, Pistols.

My gym doesn't have kettlebells and I didn't see a substitution in the FAQ- any suggestions for substitution?

use a 55# dumbbell andrew.

Haven't posted in a while...but still gettin some each day. I think the true heros are the ones not only who provide our freedom and protection, but also who battle this dreaded desease.I motion for a new series of hero WODs tell me it wouldn't be cool? Anyone second the New hero WODs? I think one religous poster who shall remain nameless (only out of respect for you since you are such an inspiration to us all)will be on board.

Fair winds and following seas on your journey, CrossFitter Amanda Red Miller! Paul

Rest In Peace Amanda.

Wow, I had no idea. So sad.

RIP Amanda.

We'll keep fighting for you. I promise cancer will never win this war.

what a tragic loss. rest in peace, amanda.

Rest In Peace Amanda from your Crossfit family

"Every day should be a great day to die."

RIP, Amanda.

She competed at my qualifiers last year in VA. She was a hell of an athlete.

Amanda-
May the four winds blow you safely home.

I also think that it would be a nice gesture to have a new set of Hero WODs named after those who have inspired so many.

I got excited for this WOD until I saw the burpees. Then I read the other comments and learned about Amanda. I will not bitch about this tomorrow.

Amanda was a truly determined young lady. I remember her burpee challenge to raise money to get to Aromas. It was a pleasure to compete beside her in Aromas. My condolences to her family. May fond memories of Amanda keep you strong.

Sobering.

Nice work CFNE.

My condolences to Amanda's family. Rest in peace.

It's when I hear of a beautiful, strong woman fighting a battle that she could not win....makes me grateful for every breath I take....and I think to myself "no excuses...I have NO excuses." Too bad this is how I have to be reminded. I should be ashamed.

Rest in peace Amanda.

We need to call this workout "Amanda" from now on. This woman had the strength to compete at a level most MEN could never reach. Scouts Out

You will never be forgotten Amanda. I will leave it all on the floor for this wod! RIP

It's sad and heartbreaking hearing somebody dying that was born the same year as me. Too much like one of my girl friends that died and she was only a couple of years younger then me.

R.I.P. Amanda

Rest in peace, Amanda. Heaven needed another angel.
HQ-Great tribute to an excellent athlete.

Amanda Miller was a very unique and resilient girl. She loved crossfit. She loved "her guns" (on her hips). I feel lucky to have known her, and sad that she is gone.

RIP Amanda Miller. My heart goes out to her friends and family.

Amanda,
Your time on this earth was too short. I know how much the CrossFit community meant to you and I just want to say you meant a lot to me and you are loved and missed by so many.

How very very sad...... RIP Amanda

RIP Amanda, I met you at the games last year and loved your spirit.

Cancer sucks... RIP Amanda

Forgive me for my ignorance but who is Amanda Miller and what happened?

"Just go, just get through it" I'm going to remember these words spoken by Amanda the next time I feel like I can't keep going.

You were way too young to leave this earth. RIP Amanda.

This is very sad to hear. While I never met Amanda, as a fellow crossfitter, I feel like I have. She was part of the family.

USMC 0341:

click the link on her name (below her picture) -- it will take you to her blog.

Amanda attended our gym at Crossfit Palm Bay for a short time in July of 08. I was not aware of her cancer at that time. She came over to our house for a birthday party. She seemed like a very cool strong girl. I'm very sorry to hear this about her. R.I.P.

Rest In Peace Amanda, was an honor to have known you and competed against you last year at Regionals. Amazing spirit and camaraderie.

Condolences to her family.

Farewell, Amanda. R.I.P.

R.I.P. Amanda

Rest in Peace Amanda.
From our family to yours.

Rest in Peace, Amanda.

RIP amanda. I think it is time for a new named wod after this young woman

RIP Amanda, very sad to see.

What I do like is the WOD video they posted. It was nice to see a video of a WOD without some "music" in the background of some moron yelling at the top of his lungs. It was a nice change of pace in my opinion. Well done CF New England.

Godspeed Amanda...

Condolences to your family...

Rest in Peace, Amanda.

This makes me sad.

But I will not lose hope. I will press on. I will go to OCS.

I was so sad to hear of Amanda's passing. She was such a strong young woman. This is a reminder to us all of the dangers of skin cancer. We must take every precaution to protect ourselves and our children. Godspeed Amanda.

Also, a fabulous job by CF New England on today's WOD. I am lucky to know this crew and can honestly say that they are every bit as beautiful on the inside as they are on the outside. Their extraordinary integrity has trickled down to every member of our gym.

That is so terribly sad. RIP Amanda.

RIP Amanda!My condolences to her family and friends.
As a husband of a breast cancer survivor (4 years now) I know how much it sucks fighting this.

Thoughts and Prayers to Amanda's family and friends.

Rest In Peace

I much prefer the song in this xfit New England WOD video, to the normal WOD video songs. (Although I don't hate them.)

Amanda - reading your block shows how strong you remained, and your story is inspiration for me to never give up, and appreciate every single day. My daughter's due date was originally on April 23, she arrived a week earlier. The wod tomorrow will be dedicated to you.
Condolences to the family and friends!

Rest in peace, Amanda.

so very sad - my condolences to family and friends.

Rest in Peace Amanda.

Rest in Peace Amanda. My thoughts go out to all of Amanda's family and friends.

Just read Amanda's blog after seeing this post. So sad. She sounded like a real fighter to the end. As a red-headed CF sister, this is a wakeup call to get to the dermatologist for a check-up.

RIP, Amanda. My condolences to your friends and family.

What a beautiful person. Her words should inspire us all. Rest in Peace Amanda. May the Lord comfort your family at their time of need

RIP Amanda. Prayers to your family and loved ones.

Rest In Peace Amanda, i'm relieved your pain is gone. Do us a favor and watch over us while you're up there. Thanks for everything you did for this world

Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

I think everyone in Crossfit can relate to this quote. Many people spend their days watching life pass them by. Rage my friends. RIP

Rest In Peace Amanda. Thoughts and prayers with you and your loved one.

RIP Amanda.

Looking forward to do this WOD and to be back in the States soon. Have a nice Day everyone.

Very sad. Too young. RIP Amanda

Rest in Peace Amanda. Our prayers are with you, and all of those close to you.

God bless Amanda and her family and friends

I hope this doesn't sound too cliche because I post this with deep sincerity, gratitude, and respect toward all in this community who have lost close ones be it to disease, accidents, or war. Like many here, I, too, have been wounded in combat- fortunate enough to walk away with nothing but the loss of two weeks of memory, bad dreams, anger, and the occasional really bad headache; and, as a commander, have spoken at too many memorial services for all to young men, and have seen amazing feats of heroism from the men in my former company. To that vain, I don't throw the word "Hero" (as in, X pro-athlete played heroically with Y injury) and I feel like I understand the weight and meaning of that word.

Simply put, to endure that much pain with that much courage is heroic. In battle, we face the unknown and unknowable, fairly certain that there is a high probability that we will not be injured and will accomplish our mission. Amanda, on the other hand, knew with all likelihood that she faced a losing battle and still endured heroically to the end. So, I will do Hero Amanda tomorrow with pride and a sense of gravity that we have lost another valuable member of our community. Whether or not the semantics of entitling the workout a Hero Workout does not diminish the life and accomplishments of Amanda one bit. Thank you HQ for memorializing this brave woman. Thank you Amanda for touching the lives of many members in our community, and while I didn't know you, I celebrate your courage and grieve for your family's loss. Rest in Peace.

Nice shirt. Skybreaker.

It's that time again: APFT- 92 PU/97 SU/12:13 2 Mile Run. Decent effort, not great. Amanda tomorrow morning.

I've never posted about form on this site, but I have a question. Aren't burpees supposed to be done without looking like the worm? I mean, in all of the videos over the last 2 weeks, every person doing a burpee is completely soft when it comes to midline stabilization. Nobody is going chest to deck. None of the bottom portion of the burpees would be considered a legit push up.

I understand the intensity over form argument, however, can't both be accomplished?

@ Nate (#123), KB swings use both arms

http://media.crossfit.com/cf-video/CrossFit_MartoneKBSBasic1.wmv

On that note...I'd been swinging the KB overhead as I was taught in the academy. That bit of knowledge equals instantly lowered "Helen" time. :-)

Completed in 11:03 at FOB Joyce Afghanistan.

Rest in peace, Amanda. What a fighter! There was no quit in her. Her blog tells the story.

I just can't get over how much she endured. What do I have to complain about...?! Not a damned thing...

Did overhead press at 135 lb (instead of overhead push up) and a 45 lb kettlebell for the swings: 22:58.

Really dragged out the last 20 burpees or so.

I have been crossfitting for 6 weeks after little or no serious excercise since I graduated college (3.5 years ago). My improvement has shocked me, my wife and everyone that knows me. This WOD when I started would have taken 45 minutes at least.

I'm not sure everyone knows Amanda's story.. Here is a link to her blog if you'd like to know a bit more about her -

You gotta be the judge of that; if you're body is telling you that you need a week of recovery then by all means yes. Recovery and rest are all apart of training.

Absolutely. Or alternatively, take days off until you feel great, and then get back on it. My guess is that after 4 days, you will wake up and feel like you can conquer the world.

Never knew or met Amanda... but my heart is sickend to hear of loosing such a wonderful spirit, far to soon. Rest in peace girl.

Kudos to Tim #103 for a heartfelt tribute to Amanda. Thank you, young Sir.

I wrote in "Musings" on Sunday of my friend dying of cancer and the grace he bestows on each of us while on his journey. I like Tim's description here, of Amanda's heroic journey, how her daily heroism in the face of a certain fate graced all around her.

As my friend Apolloswabbie writes, fair winds and following seas young lady. May your blessings have arrived.

Today's WOD...
2nd day in a row doing WODs from the main site. Awesome. I am normally strong at HSPU, but it took almost 2 minutes to complete 30. Usually I can do almost 30 in a row. Burpees were tough at the end.

I think an Amanda WOD would be good.

24:41
Substitutes:
Handstand push-ups - inclined push-ups est. 70 degrees?
Pull-ups - had 90# assist

Rest in peace Amanda.

Burpees, the bane of Cf'ers everywhere.

When you hit that wall in the middle of those burpees, think about how someone like Amanda would have wanted to be in your position. And then suck it up while you still can!

"If children have the ability to ignore all odds and percentages, then maybe we can learn from them. When you think about it, what other choice is there but to hope? We have 2 options, medically and emotionally: give up or fight like hell"

~Lance Armstrong

Amanda fought like hell. I'm honored to have competed side by side with her in Aromas 2009 and connected with her via phone and email upon her August 1 diagnosis.

She fought a war against cancer~cancer invaded her body. Cancer did not take her spirit.

I remember Amanda from the Games last year - mostly because of your two revolver tattoos. Glanced over the WOD today and must have been in denial - because I saw her photo, saw the dates, but didn't connect the dots.

Now I have... and I just read some of her blog posts... heart wrenching. My heart goes out to her family and friends... I didn't know her personally, but as part of our CrossFit family, feel like I just lost a family member too.

I got to do them ''right'' today. I have a new wall where I can extend my legs straight up. Befor I had to bend my knees and put my feel flat on the wall on account of a beam in the way about 5foot up.

HSPU's on 2 35lbs bumper with abmatt in the center. I got 5 in a row then 3's then 2's then 1's here and there. I missed the 29th reps then got it, then ended on my head on 30 and told myself''You are not going to waist this rep, pulled my legs down and kipped my first HSPU ever.

30reps pullups on big bar, then got the last 10.

I wussed out on the KB and only got 30 and broke, I wanted to do it unbroken. Grip and shoulders got me, i need a real KB.

I never knew Amanda. Never-the-less, I am very saddened by the news of her passing. It seems so wrong that a few weeks after competing at the Crossfit Games she was diagnosed with cancer. How does that happen? Hold your loved ones tight and Rest in Peace Amanda. This one was for you... I am sorry it was do darn slow. In your honour, however, I managed all 40 pullups... a feat I have never before accomplished.

Time: 26:28

HSPUs were done off a 25" box and in a pike position (well, it felt like a pike position but I'm sure that to anyone else it probably looked more like a tuck).
All 40 pullups were done... many in singles towards the end.
Burpees killed me pretty much took 10 minutes). As I have said before, Burpees are the devil.

I have been a crossfitter for 3 + years now, but have never posted on the boards before. The simple fact is that I don't think I have anything to say that all you ass kickers haven’t already said in a much better way. I love crossfit and find that a special type of person is willing to put it all on the line day in and day out like a crossfitter. That being said I find it all too easy to complain about aches and pains and tough days after a workout.

Amanda, you would have given anything to do one more workout and have one more time to put it on the line. Today I am shutting up and cranking it out for you girl. Today I will kiss my wife and play with my kids and revel in the fact that I hurt all over. And I will thank God for the chance to have one more kick ass workout.

We all want it to make some sense, but what do you do when the church goer is flattened by a drunk driver, the virtuous peace officer killed in a mindless domestic dispute...and when such a vibrant young woman is taken from us? It's not fair! Do you hear me? Look, I get it, no one ever said life is supposed to be fair, but deep down we all want it to be fair, and when someone like Amanda has to leave way, way too soon, it just really pisses me off. God rest your soul, Amanda. John and Joyce Wopat

Just about spent some quality time with the trashcan during the burpees.

R.I.P. Amanda, prayers and condolences goes out to your family and friends. May God find comfort and peace in our hearts, in mourning your loss.

The battery in my truck died so I had to improvise and go to the playground.

I packed up a backpack with 50+#s inside. I think swinging around a backpack is alot more harder then a DB or a KB...

It took me about 16 minutes to get through those HSPUs RX'D but I did!

Pull-Ups were on a wide bar

Burpees always take me forever and I kept on losing count. I probably did more then what I counted...

My Time: 32:30

I wasn't so worried about the time. I'm just happy to get through all those HSPUs without scaling down!

"PROPS TO THA FRAT!!!"

I had to use 55 lb dumbell for the kettlebell swings... we don't have kettlebells. I was much faster than I thought I'd be in the first rounds, but the burpees caught up to me and I slowed down a lot on them... I did sets of 10 with a few seconds rest and then did 20 without break at the end.... fun WOD.
I did 100 D.U.s for time after about 5 minutes in about a minute and then did some snatch drills.

#172 Timmer - I checked the burpee demo to verify that I was correct.

The reason I asked, is because the burpees done in all of the recent videos are a joke. No midline stabilization - it looks like the worm. Much faster to do that way, but half as useful.

RIP Amanda

With that said, I'm sure an Amanda WOD is in the works.

Peace to Amanda and her family. I'd say a WOD is in order.

I haven't posted on here in a long time. I felt at the very least obligated to do so and while doing this wod to focus on the fight that Amanda had fought and endured. It's one more reason reading some of these posts that I love the Crossfit community. So that being said Gods speed Amanda.

If we're going to name a WOD after Amanda, I vote that it involves some of these movements:

Deads: She hated them and always felt they were a weakness

MUs: I remember when she got her first one. Very shortly after that, she did 30 of them. She was so very proud of that.

Burpees: Her fundraiser for the Games, and for the slap of the belly that always let you know she was doing them. She made them look like cake.

One legged erging (rowing): After her surgery, I watched her erging away in my living room, with a frisbee under the foot of the healing leg. I was so glad I hadn't sold that erg yet!

Amanda inspired many and was truly every bit as strong in private as she is portrayed in a public forum. She had not a chink in her armor. I watched her crush herself on every WOD. If anyone thinks she was strong at the Games, they should have seen her after! She turned into a 100% freak after that in preparation for the 2010 Games. She was beautiful in every way. Her laugh was infectious and her smile never had any effect but to warm the heart of anyone who saw it. We all carry her spirit in our hearts. Whenever you feel like taking one more breath in a pause in a WOD, give that breath to her and pick up the barbell again. See you on the flip side, sweetie. You were the definition of beauty in strength. I'll always love you and miss you.

Everything was going according to plan...until...the burpees. I got to them within about 10 minutes, give or take, and then i died. I REALLY REALLY SUCK AT BURPEES! As soon as i got to them i looked at the floor i had a very cinematic vision of me saying, "Nooooooooooo!!!!". Taking that long to do burpees is absurd, I just need to get better at these things.

Did not do this workout anywhere close to the order shown above (jumped back and forth between exercises several times before completing all the reps), but instead just focused on completing the total reps. I personally liked this approach, although I realize that it changes the emphasis of the training and is not for everyone.

Rest easy, Amanda

Crushed this IMO. Burpees took the most time by far.

Amanda,

What a great gift you have given me. I was introduced to crossfit on April 19, 2010. I am 52 years old and I just found out about your athletic ability and your passing. Rest In Peace - what a great motivator you are for me.
