“You can only become truly accomplished at something you love. Don’t make money your goal. Instead pursue the things you love doing and then do them so well that people can’t take their eyes off of you.” – Maya Angelou

It’s 2013. And the 90 Day Challenge has begun. While I have been having a nice holiday filled with family and friends and lots of extra curricular activities and time away from work, I’m happy to see the season come to a close as I am ready to get on with it, get on with the new year.

Today, the first of the Benchmark WOD’s for the 90DC: Fran. If you’re a CF’er, you know Fran. She’s the most famous of all the girl WODs. Of all the WODs, period.

Today I was determined to go RX on my weight at 65lbs. even though I do not have pull-ups yet. My heart was pumping out of my chest, my arms burned, and the lungs strained, but I finished. I had one of the best partners and friends along the way as we cheered one another on to the last.

WOD:

“Fran”

21-15-9

Thrusters (95/65)

Pullups

Completed: at 65lbs. with ring dips at 5:24.
