“No, maybe I can’t win. Maybe the only thing I can do is just take everything he’s got. But to beat me, he’s going to have to kill me. And to kill me, he’s gonna have to have the heart to stand in front of me. And to do that, he’s got to be willing to die himself. I don’t know if he’s ready to do that. I don’t know.”

This is my first WOD, after learning about Crossfit last week. I didn’t want to over do it my first time out but I think I can up the intensity next time this workout comes back. I hadn’t done a deadlift since highschool so I wasn’t sure what weight to start at.

In retrospect I probably could have started at 185. Anyway crossfit rocks. I enjoyed the challange.
