Congrats To Everyone Who Completed The Tough Mudder
“Karen” 150 Wall Ball Shots (20#/14#)
   
I’m excited to see “Karen” again. I’ll get to see how much I have improved from the last time.
Karen is a good test of mental toughness. How much can you endure before you have to set that ball down
It’s a test of mental toughness: CAN I FINISH?! This one scared me when I saw it on the board, so I dropped back to a 4# ball and hoped to get 100. At 100, decided to keep going…10 at a time…and finished in 8:02. SO glad I did so now I can have a time to beat! Thanks Serennah for the encouragement while counting me…also for doing 150 before me and making me see that it IS possible!
When did yall do this last?
Would like to see times.
Here is the one you are looking for Scott:

I put the links up for you but it says awaiting moderation.
The dates were 2/21/10 and 8/10/10 though. You had a time posted for the 2/21/10.
I will like Karen…I will like Karen….I will like Karen…see you at 4, Karen!
205 x 5 last set of bench press. Karen… 14 lb med ball 8:42 time. This was my first time doing Karen. Legs and hands were shaking after this one. Good job 6am’ers.
205# BP for last two sets, Karen 9:04 rx 20 sec improvement but this time with 20# instead of 14#, my shoulders are dead
210# on the BP and 6:34 RX with Karen (i’ll get you yet clayton…) which is a 1:28 improvement over my last attempt back in August.
My thighs are still in shock. Can’t really sit, stand, or walk comfortably at the moment. 5:35 RX, PR by 75 seconds! Couldn’t have done it without Stefan pushing himself right there beside me. I got my first 92 unbroken; but Stefan got to 100 before he put the ball down! That is mental toughness right there, next time I’ll get the century
That is lightening fast!!
dude, I can’t imagine pushing it a minute faster than what I did! Karen was my very first workout, I believe. 6:32 Rx. Great job coaches! 275#, 295#x3 on the bench with big Bradd!!
215 x 5
6:35 rx…great work Toben
Toughmudder was a blast,!
7:32 Rx. That was my first time doing Karen.
7:16 (10#)
That’s 3 mins better than I did back in August with 4lb heavier ball.
9:00 rx, thanks for the push Hardy. 205×5 for bench press, 50 lbs over my bodyweight!
That’s an awesome bench Sean! I think 132% of your bodyweight sounds cooler
5X5 bp last set 255
Karen rxd 9:46 pr by 15 sec
