    OK….Did I mention I hate burpees? Here is why:

    31:06

    Mod su because of diastisis and the burpees became modified as the work out went on too…

    The last 50 burpees took me 8:40 – JUST the burpees!!!
    I almost walked away and didn't come back and just took a DNF…
    But my SUCCESS today is that I did finish and I stuck with it, regardless of a crappy time.

    That was the hardest physical challenge I had to mentally push myself through in a very long time.

    For the record, I still hate burpees…

    WTG Running T!! Time means nothing here! I'm saving this one for the weekend, I can bet I will take as long, most likely longer! Lol
    I second the feelings toward burpees!
    I like the little quote that says "no matter how slow you are, you are still lapping everyone on the couch!" It's my mantra… 🙂
    Keep up the great work!

    28:07 boy PU with burpees, mod su (tailbone injury). Almost changed to wall burpees, but I took it SLOW and finished! Feels like a great accomplishment!
    Thanks for a good challenge!

    I am completely new to this and am recovering from a complete achilles rupture (surgery in early May). There really is no way I can do burpees so I'll alternate between squats (10/30/50) and planks with leg extensions (on knees…can't go on toes yet…20/40). Does that sound reasonable? I'll let you know how it goes (and how long)!

    Knee planks not really good alternative. Maybe push ups next time.

    Thanks Jen Morse!! You are right – sometimes my competitive brain takes over and I get stuck in the "I'm slow" mindset, when I should focus on the fact that I'm at least doing it and doing my best at it. I like the "no matter how slow you are, you are still lapping everyone on the couch!" – I'm going to use that as my mantra too!
    Everybody who even started this WOD and put the effort in to try it deserves a pat on the back, regardless of if you finished, did every burpee, modified, or had your best (or worst!) time ever!! This one was tough!!
    Great job, all! I love this community of support!!

    On a side note though, ANYONE that broke less than 20 minutes on this one is a total XFit Goddess to me!!! 😉 Haha!

    When I woke up and saw all those burpees I thought, really?!! Couldn't she throw us a bone on Friday and have changed it up!? BUT, I'm glad you did hit the publish button and keep it as is – it's that challenge that makes us strong and makes us feel accomplished!

    Thanks again for the awesome blog!!!

    I kinda cheated. I did from 30. I was working out with a friend new to crossfit, and I'm still trying to heal my shoulder. So for 30 sit ups, 10 burpees, 20 SU, 20 burpees, 10 SU, 30 burpees I finished in 8:47. Full and correct burpees the whole time.

    Holy crap this was hell. I did the first two sets of burpees with the pushup, but had to drop that out of the last 3 rounds in order to finish. My Iphone (with timer) died toward the end, so I'm guessing on time, but it was around 28 minutes. Not so good, but I'll have a huge window to improve next time it comes up!

I had to let myself be about finishing with form and drop the competitive nature on time. I have to say I am proud of every second, burpee and situp! I did it!
