Kari is Here!

It has been two months since I have seen my wife, Kari. She is currently assigned to Kunsan Air Base, South Korea, while I remain here, in Germany. But, just yesterday, she flew in for a short visit. Because she was previously assigned here, she still has many friends that are still around. We made our way to the gym Sunday morning and it was like the 'good ole' times'--falling right back into stride with the way things used to be.

The WOD was: Split Jerk 1-1-1-1-1-1-1

Kari PR'd with a 155lb Split Jerk!!

Of course I couldn't even attempt to do this one--the most I was jerking today (so to speak) was the PVC pipe. But one of the things that Kari and I love to do together is the WOD! We had the great fortune of having all three of CrossFit Ramstein's South European Sectional 'qualified' athletes present: Buck, JB, and Lauren. So, we decided to knock out one of the British Columbia Sectional WODs. The WOD was:

"Pride, Lust, and Envy"

As many rounds as possible in 5 minutes of:

7 Box jumps (24/20) inches

7 Burpees

7 KB swings (24/16kg)

I had to do one-arm KB swings with a 20kg KB: 6 rounds (126 reps)

Kari did the WOD as Rx'd: 5 rounds + 7 Box jumps + 4 burpees (116 reps)

It was awesome to have the crew (minus Chris...booo) back together again!
