Comment #21 - Posted by: Ashley B. at October 17, 2011 4:34 AMLoved the CERT & crew in Columbus! Really got to know how GYM MAYOR thinks! :) Comment #22 - Posted by: Kim Jones at October 17, 2011 5:08 AMFrom what I can tell, there are no hero WODs named for troops you have been killed in the line of duty while serving in Africa. Alas, this may change soon (all links are wfs): http://news.yahoo.com/analysis-why-set-us-troops-africa-militants-094614575.html You know, on the surface this troop deployment makes no sense from a strategic point of view for national security...ummm...wait a minute...there are two billion reasons why we should send U.S. troops to Uganda: http://allafrica.com/stories/201110141000.html "It's all about oil...oil, oil, oil..." -- quote from an international journo friend of mine who covered the crude oil business news sector before, during, and after the First Gulf War. I never believed it while I was in, but I sure as heck do now. However, is there anything worth fighting for more than oil? Comment #23 - Posted by: J.T. at October 17, 2011 6:10 AMGreat time at the Cert in Cbus this weekend!!! Thanks to all the trainers!!

Comment #30 - Posted by: Julie Koewler at October 17, 2011 8:53 AMMade up yesterday's WOD today. Results posted there. Comment #31 - Posted by: Kevin C.(M/52/5'11"/172) at October 17, 2011 10:19 AMF/42/180/5'11" Did yesterday's workout... slow and steady with lots of interruptions ... like the daughter coming into the garage to see me and the dog pretty much sitting on me while I was doing situps... I guess me elbowing her and brushing her as I went back and forth was like a pet. The Big news is that I managed to do wait for it 5 kipping pullups in a ROW! I finally strung them together! It only took 2 and a half years of crossfitting to be able to do that. I will say that it is a LOT less taxing than 5 dead hang pullups in a row. How exciting! Comment #32 - Posted by: JuliePlatt at October 17, 2011 10:20 AMWay to go Julie! Comment #33 - Posted by: Kevin C.(M/52/5'11"/172) at October 17, 2011 10:27 AMI've missed a few weeks from the mainsite...but was finally able to get back at it today: CINDY: *probably pushed a bit too hard for being out of it for awhile - I will be hurtin the next few days...
