WOD 9.24.11 - Brennan WOD in Louisiana!!!!!

We went over to Louisiana to visit Megan Bernard from Women of Crossfit=Strong.  She was SO incredibly sweet and completely spoiled us with her Southern Hospitality!  All the other ladies were amazing too!  We had a lot of fun conversation over beers and BBQ that night after the WOD at Meg's house.  LOVE our new Louisiana family!!!!!

Before we did the WOD, 30 Marine recruits did it with their commanding officer.  Wow what a humbling experience to be part of.  These kids don't do CrossFit style workouts on a daily basis so you could just see in their eyes that they wanted to keel over and stop... but you could also see a burning desire to finish.  A quiet determination.  A fierce strength welling up from within their gut commanding them to push on and succeed.  SO proud of those young men and women!!!!!

Although this WOD was a killer, it was also the most fun I've ever had!!!  With every run we all pushed each other, smacked elbows, gave high fives, and shot each other acknowledging glances.  Yes it was brutal in the hot midday sun.  Yes we got sunburned and beat up.  Would I do it again?  Oh HELL yes!!!  Many times over!  It was one of the coolest experiences I've ever been a part of and I can't wait to visit the girls at the Bernat House of OORAH again!!!!
