I want to give a HUGE SHOUT OUT to Liz Cameron. Her pullups were strict. No funny business, no flailing around. Each one was perfect. Rock star.
That is some im-press-ively strong work! Way to pull it together!Hee hee hee.
So Jen, who did the 23 rounds that you mentioned?
Sorry, that was Jenny, but she actually did 26 not 23, that was my mistake.
Heavens! Way to go, broads! (And fellas.)
darn! wish I was there for that! that sounds like an intensely good workout
yeah Andres!!
