  • CrossFit WODs are never what they seem —

    What a storm we had last night — pouring rain hitting the side of the house. I like the sound of falling rain and all but this was a loud storm. You just have to appreciate mother nature! Today’s workout once again seems pretty minor but oh no — it was tough and right after doing Murph.…
