Get It Up!

Firstly, a big big Happy Birthday today to Jen! I'd taken the day off and we had such a fun day enjoying the sunshine, having an impromptu picnic in the Botanic Gardens and just enjoying ourselves in the city. This evening. we went to see the Men's 85kg bodyweight final and it was fantastic!

Can't help shouting and cheering on these amazing athletes at the Commonwealth Games weightlifting this evening. With doing CrossFit we know these moves well (this particular series is England's Bradley Burrowes completing a 'Snatch') so we understand the effort needed even if we haven't lifted that heavy before. A great effort shown by everyone with the eventual winner being Richard Patterson from New Zealand with a 151kg snatch and a 184kg clean and jerk - HUGE numbers!

Great fun!
