Road Trip Part 6

Today we got up in the morning and had breakfast down in the hotel restaurant, which is always awesome because everyone can get exactly what they want. Then we headed off to the pool to check it out and cool off.  Then we met up with Wayne and Kiri Liao for dinner.  Unfortunately Wayne had to do a little work that evening so it was a short visit but great none the less.  They are doing great and it was fun to catch up and meet their cute little girls. Then we headed back to the host hotel for the Kids Olympics.  There were many fun things going on and they had so much fun - a fire fighter challenge, laser tag, carnival games, a ride in a bouncy ball which made them sick to their stomachs, a dance party with limbo, and a raffle. Rylee and Brody were just dying each time a number was called and it wasn't theirs. Then it hit, they announced a number and who's the winner? Taylee, the one who could care less if she won or not.  Brody and Rylee were crushed. Heh, you live you learn, not everyone gets something. 

Next day was Jon's Crossfit competition, which started early morning.  He got a ride and we met him there right before competition started.  The WOD's were insane to say the least. One was row, barbell over head hold while partner did pull ups then wall balls. Another was a crazy ladder up and down with a million pushups, gauntlet squats and kettle bell swings and a run around the building.  Then there was a tie breaker with muscle ups and something else.  We didn't stay for it.  I think the programer was trying to cause rhabdo. I was a little irritated to say the least. They should have chosen fun WOD's that were entertaining for the participants and the spectators. Jon on the other hand didn't complain at all and had a great time participating, but I think that workout solidified Jon's end of Crossfit. He's over the competition and now he takes a Mark Sisson approach to life. Be active, eat healthy and live to be a million years old. I on the other hand am trying to kill myself off quickly being as competitive as I am. Who wants to live to be that old anyways? Not me. Anyhow we were so proud of Jon and all his hard work! Then we celebrated with BBQ for lunch with Jeremy and Kylene and then back to the hotel for the pool. We love you Jon! Next day we drove home to sleep in our beds for one night.
