Well I tried out 13.1 again...

Well really the whole gym tried out 13.1 again atleast most of our advanced athletes did....

Most people didn't beat there last score....

But manged to jump from 161 to 174!!! I paced my burpee's better this time around

Not bad for a Intern and my first time doing the open! Iwas more then please after I finally got up off the floor. It landed me 36th in the Mid Atlantic, I even beat Games people like Nate Schrader and Chris Spealler by 1...Count it

It was a good day for the gym and the Tier 1 Barbell side of the house!!
