WOD 10/1/2014 "Sandy"

"Sandy"

10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 reps for time of:

Deadlift  225#
Push-press  135#
GHD Sit-ups

One year ago today, Sandy walked through the doors of our garage gym (at that time we were running our Affiliate out of our garage).  It was her 59th birthday and she wanted to make a life change.

I'll be honest, I was scared.  I didn't know if I would be able to coach her, having never really coached someone with absolutely no CrossFit experience (and limited athletic background).

Today we honor Sandy with a workout named after her.  Why?  Because it is important to look back at how far we have come.  I have learned more about coaching in the past year than I could've imagined possible, this is because the members like Sandy who keep showing up.  Day to day we might notice how much our bodies change and how much better you are today.  Remember to look back at some of your first WOD's.  This will give you some good perspective about how far you actually have come.

Thank you Sandy for sticking with it.  Thanks for always showing up.  Thanks for helping make me a better coach.  Happy Birthday!
