Rambles of a Frosh: Halloween came early

Happy Halloween Eve to all you out there! Well, we at CrossFit St. Louis could not wait to get our "Scary" on, so we held the: CrossFit St. Louis Good vs. Evil Halloween Throwdown. So glad everyone got to come out, get a WOD in, some Paleo food and... non-Paleo drinks.

Spooky, huh?

So the night started off with 3 WODs, participated in by some or all of the teammates. So here's what we had going on.

WOD #1: one male and one female from each team competed, one working at a time

Guys: 31 pullups
Girls: 31 Box Jumps (20")

Team Evil

Team Evil got the point for WOD #2, once again a very narrow victory. So it all came down to WOD #3 to decide the fate of the world

WOD #3: 2 people working at a time in order
- 3k row (one of the 2 people had to be on the row untill the row was complete)
- 500 single unders
- 200 ball slams
- 150 box jumps (20")
- 100 burpees
- 50 situps
- 31 ring dips

Rowing like the fate of the world depended on it

The whole crew

Team Good pulled off the last WOD, and therefor controls the fate of the world! However a congrats should go out to everyone that came. Even more Kudos need to be given to Laurie, Leeny and Lisa. We couldn't have pullup off the Throwdown without the 3 L's! After the WODs, it was time to kick back, get a little silly (which we alerady were), and enjoy!
