Why do it? - Friday, January 10th, 2025

Why do it?

I was struggling with a blog post to write for tonight, and then I watched the noon class today do 12.1. Yesterday we explained that the CrossFit Open is fast approaching, and we would sharing lots of information and telling you to register. During the noon class I looked around the room and asked if anyone happened to do 12.1 in the open in 2012, knowing we had at least one athlete in the room with us who had been a part of CrossFit Indestri since back then, and sure enough Sue Underhill had.

In 2012, 13 years ago Sue took on this workout with a judge. I think she said Scott Thornton was her judge then, and she complete 104 reps in the 7 minutes, judged to a target measured 6 inches above her hands. Today, 13 years later Sue completed the workout, and did 101 reps. Yes she didn’t have a judge beside her, and we didn’t measure exactly 6 inches above her hands, however, 13 years later and only 3 reps shy. We’d say Sue has maintained her fitness well over the past 13 years.

Honestly, beyond well. This is such an absolutely incredible testament to the fact that CrossFit works. Sue has been a member of CrossFit Indestri for nearly the entire time we have existed. Sue is also very active outside of the gym, but her consistency inside is impressive, maintaining 2 to 3 times per week, unless away, or having something going on, for well over more than a decade and her level of fitness can be measured to be almost the same as it was when she was 13 years younger than she is now. Impressive to say the least!!

Knowing your data is cool.
Being able to look back on the Open leaderboard and find your scores is cool.

So on January 15th, when registration opens for the 2025 CrossFit Open, sign up.
Get a recording of your data that you look back on, and even retest years from now.
