“The only person you need to be better than is the person you were yesterday.” (Before I start… How blessed do you think I felt when I woke up, checked the WOD out of curiosity, and saw my coach had given me a little shout […]
On June 11, our coach Corey announced that he would be holding an in-house competition for intermediate athletes. He defined Intermediate as “those who RX some to most (NOT ALL) the workouts.” I was excited, as I just started RX’ing many of the workouts.
