HERO Wod @ Crossfit Teesside
(Evie, Steve and Sue Hollis)
Today we paid our respects to a mother/grandmother 'Maur' from a whole family of very well-liked members, the Hollis family. It was a very emotional experience, the box was rammed and other relatives from the family were there to watch, I felt myself wanting to cry as soon as I walked in!
WOD - designed by Evie
3 rounds
3 rounds
8 power cleans @ 42.5 kg
9 Hand stand press ups
13 box jumps 20"
cash out - 75 burpees
I got there early to do the 11 o'clock class but the 10 o'clock class hadn't even set off and were going in two heats so I just joined in the second heat. I didn't have much time to prepare I literally had to grab someone else's bar from heat 1 and do a few reps before the 10 second countdown started. I ran over to the wall to do one handstand press up with an abmat and ran back to the bar as Lee (Head Coach/Owner) was shouting 3-2-1! ...and then I was off! ...and to be honest, it was one of my most focused wods, I think because I just got on with it, no time to think about it!
...I was apprehensive about the hand stand press ups but I managed to get through all of them unassisted - yayyy!!!!!!!!!!
..I was, however, last to finish but it was great as I had a big crowd around me, everyone shouting and cheering me on and when I finally finished there was hugs all round. It was amazing atmosphere. I forgot all about the clock and my time ha ha good job someone noted it for me!! - 17:43 RXD
