I got some texts last night from a gym owner who is one place behind us on the leaderboard. The first one was playful about how we late posted the leaderboard. Which was funny. Funny because the entire field late posted. My theory is that there was a lot of uncertainty with this one and most people didn't want other people to know what was possible. I saw a lot of potential 450+ scorers post 350- scores, probably for that reason. You guys outperformed yourselves, you outperformed 328 other teams in our region, and you outperformed 4192 teams in the world.
I knew there would be a lot of individual leaderboard turn over with this one. I felt like this workout was one of the most difficult ones we have encountered in terms of strategy. I am convinced we nailed the strategy this week. We didn't nail it because we are geniuses, we nailed it because of what he said in his second text. The text simply read "Nice team effort". Another gym owner complimenting you freaks on the team effort in total points you guys put on the leaderboard. I love it. He was referring to our final scores, which is all he saw. He was right.
What he didn't see was what OKC did as a team in order to arrive at and solidify a strategy that made each of you more successful on that workout. GK and I were talking last night about how awesome and supportive each of you has been this year. Keep it up.
We are creeping up the leaderboard because of that team mentality. We are creeping up the leaderboard because of the selfless nature of our competitors. I love it. So I will reiterate what this gym owner said. Nice team effort. Keep it up. It is going to be a fight to the end with this thing and we have got to stay focused if we are going to end up in the top 15. You have your work cut out for you.
We moved 5 spots from week 1 to week 2. We moved 2 spots from week 2 to week 3. We need to move 4 more spots to be [almost] guaranteed a Regional spot. You guys can do it.
