CrossFit Tuesday…with No Buddies

Who will be here today? Bob, Dave, Lacey, Heather, Grace, and I??
Well, it ended up just Grace and I doing today’s workout on our own. We were excited to try out Grace’s new computer (more memory, better camera) but we never got let into the meeting. Tried to text Matt, no response. So, we did the workout on our own. Not quite as good as when Matt is keeping us going, but we did it.
He texted in the middle of the workout that his alarm hadn’t gone off. Well, he does deserve a day off. He does this like 7 days a week.
