Comments:
Wow, this was definitely the most challenging WOD we have done since being at 8th Day. EVERYONE was dying. And NO one finished in the 40 mins. allotted (though Jodi came very close). It was exhausting because it was so long with no breaks between rounds. There were a couple of times that I felt light-headed, but all was good. Just took a tiny break and had some more water.
After our critical remarks last evening about 8th Day, it was GREAT this morning! Wouldn't you know?! It was back to the usual smaller group, and everyone was so nice and supportive. It was fun afterward to all be in the lounge area together, griping about the WOD and sweating to death. Craig asked if I could bring the car to the door for him to crawl into(!), and when we left he said, "Back to the Home, Dear!"
