On Saturday, CrossFit Sweat Shop (Don, John and myself) came in 2nd place out of 24 teams competing in the Affiliate Throwdown at CrossFit San Francisco!  The four person team required a female and since we were missing our female we picked up Christine from CrossFit Oakland who had just finished doing the workout with her team a few minutes earlier!!  Christine more than held her own while doing the workout for the second time.  Our 2nd place finish was just 20 seconds behind the firebreathing team from CrossFit Oakland.

The workout required each team to pull a sled load with 135lbs. about 1/3 of a mile down Mason Street.  A heavy metal post also had to be carried and could not touch the ground or be carried on the shoulder at any point during the workout.  Upon reaching the turn around point, each team member had to complete 30 burpees, still, the post could not touch the ground.  After all team members completed the 30 burpees, we then had to drag the sled and carry the post all the way back to the start.  Our time was 11:41

Thanks again for your help Christine!!
