WoD - Friday 5th July, 2019

Maybe a Saturday team WoD. You know, more time on your hands as you don’t have work, you can take a morning off the renovations and throw down in the sunshine with your buddies, just like the good old days. They will take the piss out of you for a spell, you’ll die during the workout…they will take the piss out of you even more. Then, the same friends will thrust a free beer into your hands, and another, forcing you to not only take the rest of the day off from house shit, but abandon your car outside the gym, turn your Bat Phone off and get sunburnt and shitface drunk in a local beer garden. In turn and due to a raging hang over, forcing you to take the next day off too!

Basically, it’s a win win situation.

WoD - Wednesday 1st May, 2019

Not that she will be reading this, but it is my mother’s 70th birthday today! And, as proof that I have NOT forgotten AND have wished her a very Happy Birthday!
I will of course be calling (I am super busy tomorrow) her and hopefully going to say hello on Thursday morning.

She is a dude, put up with me terrorising her for the first 16 years of my life, and was therefore more than willing to sign on the dotted line, consenting for me to join her majesty’s Royal Marines at a ridiculous age! Never one to hold anyone back, just guide gently from a distance. Hero!

8 Rounds For Time of:
5 Deadlifts (110/80kg)
30m Walking Lunge

Go hard, fast and unbroken on those lunges, and get a time up on the whiteboard before you wobble out…

Not her, but is a pretty good doppelganger!
