Relying on the will power of others.

Jeff nearly killed us in the gym tonight. Check out the WOD for today. At first glance it doesn't look that bad, but trust me it was gnarly. The whole "As Many Rounds" idea was a joke. Not many people were able to complete more than one round. I hit two on the first go, but that was the only one. Of course, Jeff had 3 sets where he went 2 rounds, but other than that everybody was glad to finish one round and then have a little more than the one-minute rest. After the workout I was pretty obsessed with "rewarding" myself for surviving a grueling workout. We have a peanut covered caramel apple in our house that Amy got from work. She kept saying she was going to eat it tonight and I was trying to "be good". After dinner, I was still hungry and the walls started to break down. I asked Amy if she was going to eat something and to my surprise and dismay she said "no." Well if she wasn't going to cheat then I guess I couldn't either. Dagnabit! Oh well, Christmas will be here soon enough and the cheating will be in full effect.
