  1. Angus finished second overall in the sand dune run (three seconds behind “Commando” Steve Willis). He won his heat easily. He didn’t even look like it was an effort. When he crossed the line he fell to the ground and yelled “I fucking love CrossFit!”
    Priceless!

    Was the BEST CrossFit experience to date! I was on a high all day long and am still a little buzzed. I’ll get you next time Commando Steve. :)

    haha funny story and nice effort.
    Ben:
    FS: 40,50,60,60,60
    WtPullup: 10, 15
    Front squat was good, technique felt solid. 60kg was just right for 5 reps. Weighted pullups were really good, and should have gone heavier in hindsight. All were chest to bar.
    Hanna:
    FS: 5 sets at 30kg
    Pullups: 2sets of 5 negative only reps.
    Front squat was ok, developing technique. Pullups were tough…grip, control and strength all challenged!
    Good session!

    Oh Angus, i missed your cheer over the line, arrived about 2mins too late… priceless!!! Awesome effort on the killer dunes.
    Congrats to everyone who competed! CF Vic had a strong team great to see and nice work Ames on that second WOD, smashed it!
    I will have to organise a trip down for another WOD or 2.
