When I called them rock stars for braving the snow and freezing cold temperatures to do the WOD, Jen’s reply was:
“I don’t know about rock stars, but we do love to do our best to stay fit and healthy! 🙂 Gina’s the rock star, she survived stage 4 cervical cancer. She’s totally my hero!! Thanks for putting these workouts out there everyday, we love it!!”

10lb db for KB swings.
I am working on week 4 and feeling better than ever. Stronger and faster!! Yes!!!
28 min, did this WOD at the gym and grabbed a 12 kg kettle bell (failing to notice the kg instead of lbs, started to worry on the 5th round that the heavy kettle bell was going to slip out of my hands and go flying through the window). I was happy to discover I'd used 24lbs & was able to do full push ups
This was a perfect workout to add to my marathon training schedule. I needed to complete 4×800's, so I just added one more on, making it 5 and completed the rest as rx'd in 31 minutes (I did do gpu). Thanks for the workout.
22:03, sub 3minutes of jumping jacks instead of 800m. And girl PUs. Love sweating 🙂
23:43. As rx'd, on the treadmill. Girl push ups. 20lbs kb. Day one of my whole30.
25:55 with 4 minute run –
35:05, subbed 400 meters on manual treadmill, used 8 lb free-weight to do kettle bells, girl push ups. 🙂
41:29 still struggling with my running endurance since baby. Compared to a 31 something last time! 🙁
Any suggestions of what I can do instead of run. I can lift but bc of some degeneration in my back I'm unable to run and I have to keep my jumping minimal.I know I can swim,bike,row or get on the elliptical but I don't have any of those things at home.
26:33. I am usually one of the slower ones so I feel like maybe I did only 4 rounds? But I moved a little pebble into a line each time like Husband taught me and there were 5 pebbles, so….? Maybe I'm just getting faster? I was actually surprised at how easy the (girl) push ups were compared to last week's struggles. Onward and upward!
27.50 great workout.
35:13
15 lb dumbbell for kettlebell
54:36 and I'm NOT dead!! lol Running is my kryptonite!! 39:42 was on the treadmill.

Used 6.6 pound weighted ball for kettle swing, did girl push ups. Ran the 5 800s, minus half a lap on my 4th round.
Did it with a friend which makes a big difference. 🙂
39:32 Running is not my forte! Did girl push-ups. I envy all of you who ran extra on top of the assigned WOD. I was on the verge of an oxygen request today! Dripping with sweat! Plan to improve my running ability this year. Thanks for another butt kicker!
Subbed a 5 mile run for the 800's. Finished that in 39:46. Did the rest of the WOD as RX'd in 4:18. Total time of 44:04.
22:53 3 min jog around the house instead of 800m. Whew!!
This is only my 2nd work out and I am very overweight and out of shape so my time was awful! It took me 1hour and 5 minutes, but I am happy because I did the entire workout with no stopping! I have to start some where!
Good job sticking with it!
Made it through 3 rounds…19:02. Half real push-ups, half girl.
29:28. half gpu half bpu!

34:36 as rx'd
running was a killer today!
22:38 (day 2) ~3 min jogs/8lb kettle ball, girlie push-ups on the back of the tractor. Way sore from yesterday. Can't drag my butt out of bed in the morning so I worked out tonight behind the barn, under the moon with a head-lamp to prevent a disaster. Didn't slip on any ice, fall in any potholes, nor did I get clotheslined by the electric fence, or eaten alive by a coyote. Worked out to the tune of country and classic rock and my barking dog with beady green glow in the dark eyes staring at me. It was AWESOME! Thanks so happy I found this site! P.S I promise this won't be my typically update 😉 ~Kim
Still, I enjoyed reading your update.
22:15
3 min cardio run around house
Girl push ups
I haven't ran this much since my last 10k. This proved that I have lost my running fitness 🙁
32:15 as rx'd on treadmill.
27:48 as rx'd with 20 flights of stairs (total) in between each round as I had to go from the indoor track down two flights of stairs to the mats to do my KBS and girly pushups. And then back up two flights of stairs. And now I really want a Diet Coke. 🙂
44 Painful Minutes
KB's 5#
PU's Modified
27:48
12lb kettlebell.
1/3 boy pu, 2/3 girl – 1st day I've been able to do boy pu!
Finally done. It seemed to take forever between setting up bowling pins for the 3 year old & helping the 12 year old w/ Abe Lincoln facts I finally finished @ 46:14. My weight was 12 lbs for swings & still do girl push ups but doing it all the same.
Anyone have good suggestions for athletic shoes that won't make my feet tingle?
I like Nike, Reebok, & Mizuno. Nike has been my favorite so far. I just recently have used the other two brands. I buy 1/2 a size bigger so my feet have room to move forward ad back(especially when running) & my toes don't hurt after I'm done working out.
18 min as written no modification
27:35. I subbed stationary bike of 4 mins plus additional 5 sec each round. I thought each run would probably have gotten a little slower. Did two rounds of gpu. I am getting stronger trying to switch push ups.
23:10, 25# kb and boy pu
Modified push-ups and lunges instead – 43:28
29:29!!! DONE AS RX'D
so proud of myself cuz i had a goal of doing it under 30mins! You should have seen how fast I did those last few pushups! ha!
Also, think i need a new runnig partner, my (almost) 11 year old Lab could not keep up in those last 2 sets of running. poor old pup 🙂
32 minutes with girl pushups for the last 4 sets……..still coming back from shoulder surgery.
Loved this workout!
33:24 Subbed 2.5 mile run and 10 lb weight. Great workout
This looks like an awesome WOD. Love all the running. Went to the box with hubby again after work. Did 60 85# deadlifts, and 60 65# push press. Partnered with a petite little girl who deadlifted 135#, which I could not even lift off the ground. 🙂 Next 2 days, I am doing your awesome workouts! I have missed my shakes for the last 2 days because of work, a place where you are lucky to have the time to eat or drink or even pee! Need to figure it out with having a shake while at work, because I love having them for lunch! 🙂
24:35 with a 10 lb kettle bell, really sweating now!! Thank you!!

My husband and I started doing the WOD on Monday. Really like it! We only did four rounds with no subs. Took about 45 mins.
36:22 as Pxd
I did all 75 kettlebell swings, and 75 push ups with a 1 mile run in 28:13.
I didn't have time for another mile and a quarter since I was on my lunch break.
Will try to run an extra mile this weekend to make up for it!
blueyezcryin- In your case, I would possibly suggest burpees? Would those be ok with your back situation? Burpees are great cardio. What about stairs? Some Mamas that live in cold climates go up and down their stairs for cardio. Just some ideas.
Tiffany Morgan- You are such an inspiration to me. I seriously have so much respect for what you accomplished today. I give more props to you than to someone who could complete this WOD in 20 minutes! You did it!! And you crossfitted for over an hour!!?! That is amazing! You will rock this. Keep it up! 🙂
Country Girl- I had to read your comment to my husband. It was cracking me up! I love the details. I love to see where my Mamas are and how they are doing it! I hope your comments like that don't stop! GO COUNTRY GIRL!! 🙂
28:20. Rowed instead of run and 30 lbs for kettle bell swings. Thanks!
29:25, rowed 1000m instead of run and 12 kg kettle ball instead of 15 pounds. Good one, thanks!

28.30 as rx
43:11. I'm really proud of that, actually! I was expecting it to take an hour! I didn't even take a break during my half mile runs! Thank you SO much for this blog! I never would have pushed myself like that without it 🙂
Super swamped with starting school, hadn't measured out an 800m distance from my house yet, no kettle-ball, so I substituted for 3 rounds till fail of:
Pushups:15;9;4
Pull-ups:7;5;3
Sit-ups:137;67;12
25:34mins
Jenni- Any ideas on how many burpees per 400m? I have spondylosis so I'm not supposed to be doing anything that is bouncing so I don't cause any further damamge. Not running really hurts my time and my pride!
Pat and Maria = 32:50 (Pat – 25#KB and Maria – 20# KB)
19:50 no kettle ball subd 10# dumbells and subd running my stairs and its a deluge of sweat!!! Great workout
