Been absent from posting for a while. Its been a week since i had the unfortunate situation of having to put down our family Loomis. Haven't really felt like spending any more time than necessary on the computer.

My training has been outstanding however and motivation has been quite high. PR'd on my front squat and also had a PR on "Grace" last week with a 2:42 time...Video here-http://vimeo.com/31869878

Participated in today's OPT Construction Series Challenge with members of CrossFit Redline. There were 4 events that were spaced out over the course of a few hours.

Event 1: In 30 minutes find your 1 rep max Back Squat
Event 2: Standing Triple Jump for max distance.
Event 3: 2500 meter row
Event 4: 10 Rounds fro time of 10 Burpees & 10 Pull Ups

Results:
Event 1: 290# - A PR! Had 300# but did not use my time wisely. http://vimeo.com/32015504
Event 2: 24'- 3"  Very cool video here - http://vimeo.com/32015608
Event 3: 9:15...felt pretty good about this.
Event 4: 11:23

Taking a couple of days off to rest and reset and get back to work. I could not be happier with my progress as of late and again considering that I underwent shoulder surgery on July 7 and have been able to accomplish so much is huge.
