deadly duos challenge

so this guy has a new hobby obsession, known as crossfit. he goes to a workout every day, known as the WOD (workout of the day), reads about it, watches crossfit games {oh, yes, there are nationally televised competitions}, and even has the "shoes". he has been working out since he joined law enforcement, however, this took it to a new level for him. in fact, he even got me going. 

so last weekend our crossfit gym hosted a local competition they deemed the deadly duos challenge (you had to have a partner to compete). it began with "prowler crawls".



after a rest period, then box jumps (he cleared 47.5 inches), and cleans.


another rest, and onto something they call a chipper wod (sort of an obstacle course). run 1 mile holding a 70 lb. box, squats lifting your partner, shoulder to overhead press, assault bike, deadlifts, toes to bar, knees to elbows, pull-ups, and chest to bar. 








they called themselves guns and hoses. jason-cop and his partner, miguel-fireman. 

still a little unsure of the place they came in. he thinks 9th, but i'm so proud. his first time doing this, 40 years old, competing with 25 year-olds, and had a great time.

As I said before, this makes no sense. Just doesn't seem rational. ;)
