So the Challenge was initiated June 18, 2009 as stated by Jana's comment. I was minding my own business trying to survive another one of those gruelling crossfit workouts when Jana made her comment. something came over me and said "don't let her pass you". As hard as I tried it is rumored that she may have beat me on June 18, 2009. RUMORED.......Only God and the Angels know for sure and maybe Matt. Doesn't matter........... So I continue to mind my business and I drop by Tim and Jana's house and a challenge is issued. For every day we show up (up to 3 x's a week} we get a point and the winner of each days workout gets a point. at the end of the week we determine a overall winner of the week.
Well being in retirement from competitive events I did not step up to take on the challenge. And then the trophy was talked about. And then they stold me what the 1st week trophy was.
I could feel the competitive spirit rise back up, fire back in my eyes, and started to heat up. How could I pass up the chance to win the firework batman.
So I said yes you got it I'm in the games for sure and for the winnings .....whatever it takes.
The two preliminary rounds I lost by shear mistakes not enough sleepd. Monday starts the Games. The Czech Republic represented by Tim Sr will show up to win. He has given Jana the option to withdraw from the games before they start. Monday we show up with the "Big Guns, The ''A' team ....it promises to be a real battle in the ' back of the pack. '
Along with showing up with the A Team on monday it has been rumored that Tim SR s famous coach "ADOY" (Yoda spelled backwards) will return to inspire TimSr with stratagies and game winning coaching.
A word about the two loses in the preliminary rounds from Tim Sr:
Preliminary rounds are just that, The don't mean a thing.
We come a long way with little sleep and don't intend to leave empty handed.
Only Time Will Tell.........stay tuned to the next time these two meet...it promises to be a battle to the finish ...... a battle in the back of the pack!!!!!!

yes, the back of the pack!!!! At least when Tim Sr. comes I'm not back there alone. I think I took a min off my final time for Thursdays workout just by challenging Tim Sr. He totally has an advantage at the weight oriented workouts. And if I can keep up my wins (even when they are only seconds or split seconds) I will posibly come out with a trophy.
ReplyDeleteWe come with the big guns on monday morning. no more 2 hrs of sleep before attempting crossfit. this is serious stuff now. we come from far away...we come to WIN!!!!!!
ReplyDeletejust dawned on me that I am 2 days behind on Burpees. that means 60 something burpees times 2. today..........I should get a handicap for this......
ReplyDeleteMonday June
ReplyDeleteThe workout ---- Burpees until you die
Actual wo was as many burpees for 20 minutes
Tim Sr overslpt however made it to the 5am w/o
his total count 137 burpees. Now this puts him current in the burpee challenge. which is good cause he fell behind on the weekend.
Felt good until he hit 90 then arms were gone. The remaining part of the workout was a just "hang in there" type of workout.
The Games have Commenced!!!!
I am so enjoying he Czech Republic Olympics. Before this is over, I will be inspired to cook some Czech food and have a Czech beer!
ReplyDeleteHey, I'm in the back of the pack. The wrecking crew have times that are half of mine but I have twice the fun!
Keep posting--I love it! Mary
Last week was confusing in the games. On Monday it appeared that Jana ran away with thelead in the 100 meter all out sprints.
ReplyDeleteTim Sr was not available for comments however there was rumor that his coach slept in leaving Tim Sr with the option of sleeping in. However he made it to the Monday competition and competed without the advice of his coach. yes a dissapointing loss to Jana however she held a good pace and Tim Sr did all he could to catch her but failed..
The next workout was the burpee w/o 1 burpee in one mtim inute then two burpees in one minute etc.....Tim Sr stopped at 11 actually missed 12 by 1. not quiet sure what Jana did ....rumor is she did not show up.....anyway the week was confusing. TIm Sr is current as of today for the Burpee challenge.
This week scheduled competition Monday, wednesday and Friday.
OK dad, so that proves it you do understand Mon, Wed, Fri this week. Hey man sign in and make a new post! If we both have to keep coming all the way down here to read your posts it will get confusing, and I think after 10 posts this one will disapear anyway.
