Strong Like Mom

Overall I did 4/5 WODs RX, awesome for my first Open.  I didn't think I could be able to do it mostly RX.

From our box I was 4th in women's, 12th out of everyone

State - 350/1385 (top 25%)

Region - 3510/11670

Worldwide - 45,791/153,241

Not bad for a almost 30 year old on her first CrossFit Open!  I'm really proud of myself and can't wait to see what progress takes place over the next years to come.
