U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Bradley R. Smith, 24, of Troy, Illinois, assigned to the 10th Air Support Operations Squadron, based in Fort Riley, Kansas, was killed on January 3, 2010, by an improvised explosive device in Zhari district, Kandahar Province, Afghanistan. He is survived by his wife Tiffany, daughter Chloe, parents Gary and Paula, and brother Ryan.
For the sake of the bet, I won't post my time--i'll just say that I scaled to 1.5pd swings and ball slams...and finished. Of course, that's a very different workout from PU and burpees. But I'm prepared to make up the difference with a little 1200m run.
Pullups felt awesome!! I broke up in sets of 5 through first 4 rounds then each round after I did 5 then either 3/2 or even 3/1/1 or 2/1/1/1. I got right back on the bar every time I came off. I didn't pause/rest on burpees and the sprints were more of a fast jog, but I kept moving. I think my pace was pretty consistent throughout which I think is key on this one.
Great job 6 a.m.!!
1200m run for the loser Addi!
Well Ill let you know what I got and everyone else in the throwdown write it down on the blog tomorrow! Good luck!
Tough one bring your no surrender pants today!
All PUs unbroken and burpees as fast as I could.
Rough one today. The heat made things interesting. Good idea to bring gloves today.
I thought Pat already took that 1200m run, or is this throw down penalty for each class?
I heard you didn't fully rest the whole 30 seconds for some of your rounds, is this true?
Was pretty much chasing Jon and Nick P the whole time, with Pat right behind me. We all kept a similar pace until the end when fatigue set in.
In addition, whoever you heard that from should have probably said something to me during the workout. I find it hard to believe that any of the staff would miss an opportunity to call someone out.

I wouldn't recommend doing this with ANY food in your stomach. The last 3 rounds of burpees and smashing your stomach on the floor really made me want to get sick. Bad. At it had been 2 hours since I ate. Maybe it was to workout, maybe not. No fun trying to keep that down.
Crazy good job to Nick and Pat and Hinkle and JonD and everyone else who somehow managed to finish.
GOOD LUCK AFTERNOONERS!!!
Anyways, nice work Jon and the rest of the noon class, I'll catch you one of these days.
Tried my absolute best to get my chin over the bar for each pull up and have no "butterfly affect", and I think I got completely up and down for all my burpees.
Towards the later rounds I was wishing for about a minute rest, by the time you get a drink 30 seconds is about over!
Try as I might, I just couldn't catch Paul though! Dang him.
Awesome job 6am peeps and to Shelley for being the only one who finsihed it Rxd this morning. She is a machine.

My goal was to keep moving and for the most part I did. I did my best to get as high as I could on my kipping pull-ups/attempts, they are getting better every day! It is so fun to do things you never thought was possible.
Yes, it was hot, but damn I love the heat! Getting a good sweat in makes my day.
Good work nooners!!

I am still very happy with this time because this WOD was brutal. I honestly almost quit after the 5th round. Kudos to everyone who came in today and gave this WOD everything they had. Shows a lot of heart.
I am not familiar with the blogger term #justsayin. Just saying what? Is this a re-buttal to solidify the fact that I am a potential time shaver?
I can't think of one person who @ some point in time has miscounted, embellished, and or failed to correctly complete full range of motion of reps or time, including you.
I guess I am slightly irritated by this comment because not 1 hour before it was posted I was in your office talking to you.
I am all for constructive criticism, but believe there is a time and a place for this. In class calling no rep is one thing, but posting on a public forum that you "heard" and didn't witness is entirely another.
I'm #justsayin we are all here to push each other, have fun, and not put people on blast (jersey shore terminology).
That term did not mean what you think it meant. I was merely stating that there were voices who mentioned that you may have cut your rest short.
#justsayin is a twitter hashtag and nothing else. It meant no harm. I didn't accuse you of anything, only asked. That is why I said, It's all good.
Sorry if you thought it meant more but in the end, it's just a workout.
Also, if not in a public forum, where? If you didn't do anything wrong, no worries, right?
Did all pull ups unbroken and just tried to keep moving as fast as I could on burpees. Tough workout, but I love em. I will hit my 1200m tomorrow for a little throwdown punishment.
Good Times had by all!!!
I was not in the throw down since I forgot to post but at 25:18 I will do the 1200 meters, as my father would say...to build character!
27:26 rx'd (only 1 rd 1-armed, then decided I'd rather have my hand hurt)
I was just happy to finish - lots of sweat, quitter-thoughts, and more than a little pants-peeing. Plus one restroom run. This was really tough for me. Had 6 or so rds unbroken on pullups, and my last round of burpees might have been my fastest. Small victories.
Only problem is, I don't know Pat's time! So I don't know if I owe a run or not.
In any case, awesome work, 6:30 class. The energy was great, and Egan and the Tovars left us all in the dust. Congrats to Danielle for cranking out the last round of burpees in time!

Really, REALLY wanted to go faster, but I felt like the pull ups and burpees went well, should of just ran a little faster.
After this I ran that 1200 in the afternoon heat. It was awful.
Since school officially starts for me tomorrow I will be at the 5 am class or one of the evening classes.
I'll miss the noon class!
That was the biggest 5:30 class i have ever seen. Must have been 25-30 people in there. I love it. Thoughts on that. I know its a long WOD and a good workout but why doesn't that same attendance show up for deadlift, or overhead squat days?
I don't think I have pushed myself that hard in a long time. I made a decision after round 5 that I was going to try and maintain the cushion I had built and try and finish under 20 mins. Not sure what got into me but I was able to maintain pace.
What's funny is the whole time I was holding a pace that I thought would put me between 19:30 and 19:40 never taking into consideration there was no 30 sec rest after round 10. Silly me I never realized until I called time! Maybe I could have backed off a bit and kept my head from feeling like it was going to explode from overheating.
Tough stuff today by everyone... especially bangin this out in the heat!
