**Please note that the Saturday High Noon Hero WOD will not be happening on December 24 or December 31, but will return the following Saturday in January 2012.

In the meantime, here’s a report from our High Noon Hero WOD organizers:

High Noon Hero WODders,

Just want to keep everyone updated that after a phenomenal start these past three weeks, “High Noon Hero WOD” is closed for the holidays but will resume January 7, 2012. Great work and great job to everyone who came out and gave it their all. Doing “Murph” with everyone was an amazing experience and following it up the next week with “Mr. Joshua” was almost better. We had so many people, we needed to run two heats. Last week was the inaugural WOD in the new space and the crew that showed up for “Brenton” hit it hard. It was great training with everyone and we are looking forward to many more High Noon WODs with everyone.

Enjoy the holidays and maybe hit a Hero WOD somewhere!

      Working at it. Just travelled for four days. Made it really tough.

  • Cass

    front squats and presses for strength

    13:55 subbed 14 pull-ups/dips and 73# for the cleans..NASTY

  • Erika Ramos

    i have to say it. we are some FINE looking crossfitters.

    A. 95×3, 115×3, 115×3. Shoulders still feel a little tender and wanted to save a little for muscle ups

    B. Nasty Girls:  12:10 Rx’d. That is a fun WOD. Squats were fine. I paced myself through them in sets of 25. I did muscle ups as singles. I think this strategy helped my time. Failed MUs don’t help at all. Power cleans in sets of 5 felt good.

    I’m touring New England next week – visiting family in CT and in-laws on Cape Cod. Hope everyone has a great holiday and a Happy New Year.

        Thanks Jamie, good work yourself…

  • Jamie F.

    16:18 RX’d.

    Gotta practice those MU’s.  HPC’s were unbroken for all three sets though.

    9:48.  (21 reps on the dips / pull ups – no rings at the hotel gym)

    10:32 RX’d

  • Sara

    13:31 rx’d.  Muscle ups from full extension!!!! 

  • Jason W

    12:36 rx’d.

    a full 1:17 slower than the last time i did this wod. muscle-ups just weren’t working for me today. all signs are pointing to a rest week.

  • Peter F

    63/73/78…. I think I need to establish a new 1RM for presses, 85 seems kinda low. 

    12:15 on the WOD, subbed 14/14 kipping pullups and bar dips with 75# barbell.  Couldda gone higher with the barbell too.  If I have a resolution for 2012, it will probably something along the lines of “just go heavier”. 

  • BenS

    A: 105-105-105
    B: 11:00.  95# HPCs; green band pullups; box dips

  • Jim S

    A: 105 105 105
    B: 21 pull up / 21 box dips, 115lbs 20:23
    Really slow today after some jet laggy travel. Felt sluggish starting with the warmup and it didn’t go away. But I feel good that I finished it.

  • Rory
