And the Winner is...

Shawn!! For getting Melissa to tie the knot with him tomorrow! Congrats, you two! Have fun this weekend!


Oh yeah, and there was a Team Challenge today:

The winner of the 1st event this morning (Partner Push) was the RED team.

The winner of the 3rd event this morning (Garage Sale) was the BLUE team.

And after compiling the time for the 2nd event (nearly 400m Sprint), the team with the fastest combined average time was the RED team with an average time of 1:38. The Blue team had an average time of 1:43. That was a close race with only a 5-second difference on the average times! Note: We only factored in the 9 team members and did not factor in any instructors' times.

So the Overall Winner of today's Team Challenge is the RED TEAM (nice job, Greasers!), taking 2 of the 3 events! Awesome to see everybody push so hard out there today!

This weekend: Check out the Ponce Crossfit Gym on Saturday at 11am if you want a quick, fun workout. Y'all have seen the gym, it's right across the street from the parking lot where we've been meeting. Holler at us if you have questions. Rest up this weekend, but again do at least a little something to stay active. We're going to plan to meet on Monday again at the Ponce Gym parking lot like we've been doing!

Feedback: Let's hear in the blog comments what y'all thought of today's challenge. Did you feel like you got a good enough workout? We intended the 3 events to be all out burners. Short and intense where you give it everything you have. Did you feel like you could've gone faster? What was your favorite part of today's Team Challenge?

*Fun fact: Instructor Tim's time (which was not counted in the total) was the speediest on the Sprint, coming in at 1:08! He's one fast rabbit!

Awww...thanks everyone for all your support! I really am the luckiest guy in the world. Not only do I get to marry the girl of my dreams, but...I get to hang with my RED teammates while we kick some BLUE ass. Nice work everyone! See you on the other side!

Congrats Shawn & Melissa!!! We can't wait to hear all about it come Monday.
Way to go GREASERS!!!!! What a close race! I'm definitely feeling the pain this morning - the "garage sale" was a lot of fun. The sprint was not. :) Looking forward to seeing what next week has in store. Hope everyone has a great weekend! GO RED!!!!!!!!!!!!

There are so many reasons why I was so sad to miss this morning with y'all... *single tear*

Congratulations Melissa and Shawn!!! So sorry to miss your last morning before the big day. Can't wait to see photos of your wedding... especially the dress!!!

Congratulations Team Red on your first victory, wish I could've been there to witness the majesty! Sounds like it was a close fight, though...can't rest on our laurels, I have a feeling Team Blue will be bringing the fire next week!

See you all in the dark and dirty on Monday!!!

ps: if you haven't already, check out the great photos that Grizz has posted under the "photos" toggle at the top of the page. I don't know about you guys, but I am super-psyched to be having an uberprofessional photographer (and artiste) in charge of our photo ops this month!
