DEATH BY BURPEES...................................Yes, I just about died during this one. As many burpees as you can in 20 min.
Me 234. They were by no means perfect, and I did them without shoes, which was harder. I ended up going to my knees for push-ups after 30.
It just about killed me, but didn't stop me from doing a 10 mile run after.
I was in So Cal Sierra Madrea fro Andy's big bash it was fun. Lot's of people showed up and it was fun hanging out with all the So Cal runners.

I headed out Saturday towards the Wilson trail from Andy's Saturday morning and I noticed a lot of runners coming at me. Found out they are all training for the Mt' Wilson trail run. As I was running a guy spots me and comes running at me from across the street. He had lot's of tattoos and a shaved head. He say's you're Catra and you train at one world crossfit. Yeah, he was right. I was suprised then he said his name was Eric and he runs crossfit Monrovia. I was stoked, I had no idea there was a crossfit close by. He will also be attrending the running and endurace cert. next weekend in Newport. I'm going to hit up his crossfit for a wod Friday. I should know by now, any fit looking guy with tattoos, and shaved head , there is a high possibility they are a crossfit trainer, it's the look. All the top crossfit trainers have the same look. Ok I know at some point I will be a trainer, yeah ,I have the tattoos, but I'm not going to shave my head...LOL...
If you're in the area check out Eric's place http://www.elitefitnessbootcamp.net


Six inches off the floor and flying high into outer space.
RIP....Catra Corbett....Death by burpees 2-8-08



ah We move like cagey tigers We couldn't get closer than this The way we walk The way we talk The way we stalk The way we kiss We slip through the streets While everyone sleeps Getting bigger and sleeker And wider and brighter We bite and scratch and scream all night Let's go and throw All the songs we know...Into the sea You and me All these years and no one heard I 'll show you in spring It's a treacherous thing We missed you hissed the lovecats We're so wonderfully wonderfully wonderfully Wonderfully pretty! Oh you know that I'd do anything for you...We should have each other to tea huh? We should have each other with cream Then curl up by the fire And sleep for awhile It's the grooviest thing It's the perfect dream Into the sea You and me All these years and no one heard I'll show you in spring It's a treacherous thing We missed you hissed the lovecats We're so wonderfully wonderfully wonderfully Wonderfully pretty! Oh you know that I'd do anything for you...We should have each other to dinner huh? We should have each other with cream Then curl up in the fire Get up for awhile It's the grooviest thing It's the perfect dream Hand in hand Is the only way to land And always the right way round Not broken in pieces Like hated little meeces...How could we miss Someone as dumb as this? I love you... let's go...Oh... solid gone...How could we miss Someone as dumb as this?

Holy Crap!!! 234 burpees in 20 minutes, that's crazy! I remember doing the 150 burpees for time on Christmas eve, I think that took me longer than 20 minutes, and I don't think I could have done any more.
