Thursday 120426 Thrusters/WOD for Tracy


Tracy came through her major surgery on Wednesday.  It was a 15 hour ordeal at UCLA with many surgeons and specialists involved.  Good news that when removing some lymph nodes, they were determined to be negative for cancer.  They reported no complications whatsoever and she is recovering nicely.  The Powells found out that Tracy had breast cancer this past Thanksgiving- since then she has gone through weeks of chemotherapy, continued doing CrossFit many weekdays and at Saturday Team WODs, was the guest of honor at the Helen Meets Grace event at Golden State CrossFit as a fundraiser for Barbells for Boobs, learned her job was moving her and the family to NYC in August, and has continued working through it all.  She is truly an inspiration to all of us at the Hut... to her family and friends... and all who know of her story.  We wish the Tracy, Matt, Graysen, Ryan, and Paige the best.  Glad they will still be around for most of the summer.  More news at it emerges.
Tracy competed in the Open between bouts of chemo.
*5-7pm today is the CFM Open Night and we are dedicating the night to Tracy!  
Three different WODs in 2 hours.  Come to compete, judge, spectate, photograph, go out to dinner following the event, to honor our friend Tracy and/or all of the above.  Please arrive at or before 5pm.  The briefing will be 5:05pm- all WOD details will be revealed, movement and judging standards will be reviewed.  There will be a class at 4pm, but no regular 6pm class.

The WODs:
WOD#1 (Beginning at 5:15pm)
AMRAP in 6 minutes of:
9 Deadlifts
6 Hang Power Cleans
3 Push Jerks (or presses)
There is a special formula for the weight to be used.  That will be revealed prior to the WOD.... the weight on the barbell will be the same for all three lifts.

WOD#2 (To be completed any time before starting WOD #3)
Is a secret, to be revealed at the briefing.

WOD #3 (Beginning at 6pm)
