 No photographs (yet) of the first WOD... where I tied for second in the event and involved an ascending ladder of 65 lb hang power cleans and 2:1 ab-mat sit-ups (because I couldn't quite do knees-to-elbows or toes-to-bars yet) in 10 minutes.

The second WOD consisted of walking 400 meters with a 55 lb barbell in rack hold (female scaled B division) and doing a thruster every 15th step and 5 burpees for every time the barbell hit the ground. I only did 5 burpees throughout and took first place in this event.

 

The third and final WOD was 75 snatches or clean and presses (basically any way of getting the bar from the ground to overhead) at 55 lbs with a time cap of 10 minutes and 2 burpees over the bar every minute on the minute. I took 3rd in this one.

 I took an overall first in the scaled B division! The second WOD was my salvation and what allowed me to pull ahead of my entire competition!

This was footage from my first CrossFit competition back in September, where I competed in the SXB (scaled B division).

Let's just say it involved a fit of pique and a need to get away from most humans and a need to spend some time with some magnificent furry creatures.

 Standing behind me are Forrest, Brazos, and Canyon, three boys once known as the "Brat Pack" and offspring of the gentle giant Minquah and adorable little Sage, who kissed me last year. Forrest decided that he really likes me and that I could use a good kiss.

 At least Forrest doesn't like boogers or my nostrils would probably be a little bigger now!
