Clydesdale that's right you

0:37
break today just because
0:39
there's stuff going on all
0:40
over the world nope we are
0:42
here we are here to break
0:44
it all down everything
0:45
we've seen so far what's to come
0:48
maybe do a live look in at
0:50
the syndicate crown where
0:51
they are on heat two of the
0:53
first event for the women
0:55
and that is heavy isabel we
0:57
saw john john young
0:59
complete compete we saw in
1:01
heat one of the women's
1:02
division someone crush
1:04
heavy isabel with the
1:06
second fastest time in the world
1:09
And hey,
1:09
we've done it like six hundred
1:11
million times.
1:12
So why wouldn't someone kill
1:13
it this weekend?
1:15
So we're going to do that.
1:16
We're going to check the
1:17
leaderboards all over the world.
1:19
There's four competitions
1:20
going on this weekend.
1:23
We'll get you caught up on
1:25
everything that is going on
1:28
and it will let you get
1:29
back to the stream.
1:30
So with that dart throw time.
1:39
Son of a gun.
1:42
So this has been my week's dart throw.
1:46
And the last one was the closest.
1:52
So I will show you guys.
1:58
So today's was just to the right.
2:01
Just to the right.
2:03
And I've thrown four darts this week.
2:05
And there they are.
2:07
They're all right around the center.
2:09
I'm getting really, really close.
2:14
Corey Leonard.
2:16
Who's that dude?
2:16
He hasn't been here in a week.
2:18
He is in Alaska.
2:20
He's on a cruise.
2:21
He's on a boat.
2:23
He's on a boat.
2:24
What's up, T-Bird?
2:26
What is up, Kenneth?
2:28
So, yeah, we'll do some live look-ins.
2:31
at Syndicate,
2:32
just because we know that you
2:33
guys want to see what's going on.
2:35
Live look in at Syndicate right now.
2:37
We're on heat two of the women,
2:40
Heavy Isabel.
2:43
Someone looks like they're
2:43
about to finish up sub five here.
2:50
And what, four forty six.
2:53
for that.
2:54
So not a bad time, but that is nothing,
2:57
nothing compared to what
2:59
Rebecca divine did in the
3:01
first heat at three, twenty four, three,
3:06
twenty five, something like that.
3:08
Um,
3:10
In pure insanity.
3:13
She talked afterwards with
3:14
Taylor Self about how she
3:16
competed with Olivia
3:17
Kerstetter in the team division.
3:19
She's twenty years old and
3:21
she was going after that time,
3:23
but just missed beating
3:25
Olivia's time by about three seconds.
3:28
So.
3:30
Still pretty amazing.
3:33
So, yeah,
3:33
you can go over and check this
3:34
out after that.
3:39
But we'll talk about what's been going on.
3:41
First and foremost,
3:42
John Young did the JY Challenge.
3:46
He was beat by two people in his heavy,
3:50
Isabel.
3:52
Sam Demeester winning it
3:54
with a time sub five.
3:58
John Young went sub six,
4:01
which screwed me on my prop bet.
4:04
I thought he would just be a
4:05
tick over six.
4:08
Instead,
4:08
he was like five fifty five fifty
4:11
four or something like that.
4:12
So just to tick under,
4:14
he actually PR'd the Isabel
4:16
by thirty seconds.
4:19
So great effort.
4:20
Really cool event to kind of
4:22
do that as a heat zero before the event.
4:28
And really fun to watch.
4:30
The other thing I wanted to
4:31
comment on yesterday,
4:32
we talked about how they
4:33
shortened the floor.
4:35
And would that affect
4:36
transition times later in the weekend?
4:40
And I found out why they
4:41
shortened the floor.
4:42
Actually,
4:43
the community event last year was
4:45
outside.
4:48
They have a cemented area
4:49
right outside that was
4:50
Vendor Village and the community event.
4:53
This year,
4:53
they have moved the community
4:55
event onto the same floor
4:57
as the competition,
5:00
but it's behind the
5:02
finishing line stands.
5:04
So you so the main event is
5:06
on like the right floor,
5:09
and the community event is
5:10
on the left floor,
5:11
and they go back and forth.
5:13
So you're still in the same area,
5:15
you can see from the same stands.
5:19
And that's how they're doing it.
5:20
So I'm curious to see how
5:21
that plays out throughout this weekend.
5:26
let's go around the world
5:27
real quick check the
5:28
leaderboards everywhere um
5:30
get you updated on what's
5:32
going on um at all the
5:36
different events so we have
5:37
the torian pro over here uh
5:41
let me blow that up for you
5:42
guys here we go no surprise
5:46
uh in first place at torian
5:48
is ricky gerrard in second
5:49
place is jay crouch and in
5:51
third place is gi maheros
5:54
All three of them are not
5:55
eligible to get a ticket to
5:57
the games through this competition.
6:04
Ricky and Jay already have their ticket.
6:07
Gee is not eligible for a ticket.
6:09
So we're looking right now
6:11
at Peter Ellis in fourth
6:13
place and Hiko Curtis.
6:17
They would be in the
6:18
positions to get games qualification.
6:21
We have then Ben Fowler, Isaac Newman,
6:24
Liam Ford, Riley Martin.
6:27
And then down here,
6:28
we have Royce Dunn and
6:30
Brandon Swan taking up the OG spots.
6:34
I think the biggest news
6:36
from Torian is that Bailey
6:38
Martin withdrew after the first event.
6:41
So Bailey Martin most likely
6:43
is not going back to the CrossFit Games.
6:46
He would have to either win
6:47
the last chance qualifier
6:48
or somehow get to NorCal.
6:51
Um,
6:51
my guess is that would be if he's
6:53
withdrawing at a
6:55
competition today to be
6:57
ready for NorCal seems out
6:58
of the realm of possibility,
7:00
but who knows,
7:02
but he is out and withdrawn
7:04
from the Torian pro.
7:08
And then on the female side,
7:11
we have a blank.
7:15
We have a blank.
7:16
Okay.
7:18
And it doesn't want to play nice.
7:20
There we go.
7:21
Here we are.
7:23
We have Tia Claire Toomey,
7:25
who has won both of the first two events.
7:29
Surprise, surprise.
7:31
She's kind of good at this CrossFit thing,
7:33
even though she's been
7:34
training high rocks exclusively.
7:37
The first event was
7:38
predominantly a running event,
7:41
so no surprise there.
7:43
But the second event did
7:44
have some heavy cleans.
7:47
she ended up winning that by,
7:48
I think a minute and a half,
7:51
something like that.
7:53
Um, over Gracie Walton.
7:56
Um,
7:57
I think she five thirty four to seven
7:59
forty three.
8:03
Um, no, seven thirty six,
8:06
five thirty four to almost two minutes.
8:09
Exactly.
8:11
Uh,
8:13
So that shows utter domination there.
8:17
Tia is really the greatest
8:19
it's ever played.
8:20
Now, will she accept her invite or not?
8:22
We'll find out soon.
8:24
But as it stands now,
8:25
because Maddie Sturt and
8:26
Grace Walton have their
8:28
tickets and they're in the
8:28
second and third position,
8:30
Tia Claire Toomey and Emily
8:32
DeRoy would be getting the tickets.
8:35
Closely followed by Madison Gilmore,
8:38
Gemma Houck, Georgia Pryor,
8:40
Daisy McDonald.
8:41
Michelle Hayes and Ella Price.
8:47
What I will say,
8:48
I'm going to say this about Torian.
8:53
While it's live, you can pause and rewind.
8:57
Once it goes off air,
8:59
you cannot pull it back up again.
9:02
And that is extremely,
9:03
extremely frustrating if
9:05
you are twelve hours behind
9:08
like I am and trying to
9:10
catch up with everything this morning.
9:14
Making it very difficult to do so.
9:18
T-Bird says their stream was great,
9:20
could cast to my TV,
9:21
but had to go to bed before
9:22
event two and they haven't
9:23
posted the replay yet.
9:26
Amen to all of that.
9:28
I actually wasn't feeling well yesterday,
9:30
went to bed early,
9:31
slept nine and a half hours,
9:33
which was awesome.
9:34
I don't think I've done that in six months,
9:38
maybe longer.
9:40
Woke up this morning, felt great,
9:43
wanted to go dive into some stuff,
9:47
and I could not replay the
9:49
Torian stuff at all.
9:54
So, yeah.
9:57
She also says on their website stream,
9:59
they had the ability to
10:00
pause and rewind a bit,
10:01
so WFP should be able to do it as well.
10:04
I've heard that they're
10:04
already working on that
10:06
with WFP to be able to pause and rewind.
10:10
It's the getting the replay part.
10:13
And my understanding is that
10:15
ESPN Australia has picked
10:17
up the Torium Pro as an
10:19
event that they are showing
10:21
live on their channel there.
10:25
which is awesome news.
10:27
Anytime that a major network
10:29
is picking up a CrossFit event,
10:31
that is good news for the sport.
10:34
But I think because of that,
10:35
it's limiting on what they
10:37
can and cannot do with the
10:39
stream to some degree.
10:41
And they probably have sold
10:43
some of the rights for that.
10:46
And while it's great in
10:48
Australia where you can see it on ESPN,
10:50
it is affecting the rest of
10:52
the world on the replay stuff.
10:54
So there it is.
11:00
Again, that's just rumor I've heard.
11:03
I don't have any
11:04
confirmation on that at all.
11:08
So then we go to the Far East Throwdown.
11:11
We'll check that leaderboard.
11:18
And that is here on the
11:21
women's side after two events.
11:25
have anna ivanova mariana
11:28
mesa they are the two
11:30
people uh in the first two
11:32
spots this event only gets
11:35
one ticket to the games so
11:38
you have anna ivanova in
11:40
the spot right now mariana
11:42
mesa so here kaya is in third um
11:46
So not too bad.
11:47
They're using the lowest
11:50
point wins system.
11:53
She's only one point out, Zahir Kaya,
11:55
from first place.
11:58
Sheung Young Choi already has her ticket,
12:00
so she is not going to be
12:02
taking that spot.
12:04
And then Duan Young,
12:05
someone else that we know,
12:06
is in sixth place.
12:08
But the furthest Dwan Young
12:09
is in sixth and only four points back.
12:13
So anything is possible.
12:15
Five points back.
12:16
I'm sorry.
12:18
Amy Hosking is in seventh.
12:20
Amy is a dear friend.
12:22
I've met her through the
12:23
semifinal series that we've done.
12:25
She is over there.
12:26
She's a Canadian fighting in
12:29
Australia for a spot.
12:31
She has been fighting
12:33
autoimmune disorders for
12:35
much of her adult life.
12:37
And it's amazing what she
12:38
has done with her
12:43
limitations and the hurdles
12:44
she has to overcome.
12:47
In other news,
12:48
those people following the
12:49
Hannah Black story,
12:51
she did not do well on the first day.
12:55
She is sitting somewhere down here.
13:01
No, I can't find it.
13:04
Oh, she's in Torian.
13:05
That's why she's not on here.
13:09
But she was near the bottom in Torian,
13:13
just to update that part.
13:16
Where is Hannah Hardy?
13:22
Was she at Far East or is she at Torian?
13:26
I think she's at Torian.
13:32
So that's on the women's side.
13:35
We'll go over to the men.
13:38
Tiago Luzes is in first
13:40
place in the Far East.
13:42
Andrea Petku is in second.
13:45
And SSG Kim is in third.
13:50
I would be lying if I knew
13:51
anything about what these guys were.
13:58
So, yeah,
14:00
I'll just read off the names
14:01
because I can't give you
14:03
much more than that.
14:04
And I apologize for that.
14:09
Uh, Corey says,
14:11
I heard there's a seven
14:12
time games champ at Torian.
14:14
Yeah, I heard that too.
14:16
And she's making sure
14:17
everybody hears that.
14:20
Uh, when we go to the rebel renegade games,
14:24
um,
14:24
they don't have anything up on a
14:26
leaderboard other than an app.
14:29
So I had to download the app
14:30
on my phone and they are,
14:35
they are currently
14:36
competing on day two right now.
14:43
so I don't know if all the
14:46
scores are updated they are
14:51
um so I know everybody is
14:58
wondering about sarah
14:59
sigmund's daughter last
15:01
night sarah sigmund's
15:01
daughter took first place
15:02
in the first event got a
15:04
hundred points on the third
15:05
event she took second got
15:07
ninety five points
15:09
the second event was a long
15:11
run into a row.
15:13
She came in after the run in dead last,
15:17
she got on the row.
15:18
And if you have not seen the
15:20
stream for this, uh,
15:22
I'm going to try to pull
15:23
that up while we're talking.
15:26
Uh,
15:27
they used a row simulator that we've seen,
15:31
uh, before I think for the marathon row,
15:35
um,
15:37
So I'm going to see if I can
15:38
find that real quick.
15:46
Okay.
15:47
So this is during the men.
15:50
I'm going to share my screen.
15:52
This is the Rebel Renegade Games.
15:56
They had a row simulator.
15:59
I'm going to blow this up so
16:00
you guys can see it.
16:02
There we go.
16:03
So you can see down here,
16:05
everybody and their rows,
16:08
where they stand in the
16:09
places they are not, they are at,
16:12
and then here are their row paces.
16:15
So you can see who is gaining on who.
16:18
This needs to be done at
16:20
every streamed event.
16:23
This, what made watching the row exciting.
16:28
Because you can see who's
16:29
rowing what pace.
16:31
You can see if they're catching.
16:32
You can see how close they are.
16:34
It is amazing.
16:39
So anyway,
16:39
Sarah Sigmundsdottir is standing
16:40
in fifth place currently
16:42
after three events.
16:43
That is with a first and a second.
16:45
She did some damage control on the row,
16:48
and that's where it was really cool.
16:49
She came in in dead last after the run,
16:52
and you could see she was
16:53
rowing ten seconds faster
16:55
than anybody else on the pace.
16:58
And because of that,
16:59
she was picking people off.
17:01
And that was damage control for her,
17:04
right?
17:05
How many people could she
17:05
pick off before the end to
17:08
have some damage control on that event?
17:11
So she's currently sitting in fifth.
17:15
I don't know how far out she is.
17:18
She is fifty five points behind first.
17:23
I think that is doable if
17:24
she because if she is
17:26
rowing ten seconds faster
17:27
of a pace than everybody
17:29
else in the field.
17:31
And she wins the first event.
17:39
She has the capacity to
17:41
compete with these women and to make it.
17:43
And I think she has a chance.
17:45
She just cannot run anymore
17:47
with that knee.
17:48
She just can't.
17:50
And that was evident in that event.
17:54
On the men's side,
17:55
Toby Buckland is in first place.
17:59
raduan el gaduni is in
18:02
second jacob hendry is in
18:04
first the third on the
18:06
women's side the top three
18:08
are evie hollis christina
18:11
leviticus and lanny ventner
18:13
uh I know the first two um
18:16
but I think I do think
18:17
sarah's got a shot I do
18:23
Jay Birch is asking, what are they doing?
18:25
A five,
18:26
a two K it's actually the name of
18:29
the event is triple three ish.
18:31
So it's a three thousand meter row.
18:36
Keeping it real, you're not at Syndicate.
18:38
I am not.
18:39
I've announced a couple
18:40
times this week that my
18:42
wife was not cleared to
18:43
travel and she's not cleared to drive.
18:46
So I can't leave her by herself,
18:49
not able to get to any of
18:50
her appointments or get to anything.
18:53
And she cannot drive for
18:54
long periods of time
18:57
because of the swelling
18:58
that could come up in her knee.
19:00
And so that's more important
19:02
than getting to an event this year.
19:04
And I knew that going into
19:05
this year that it would be
19:06
a bit rocky with everything going on.
19:12
And so I just, it is what it is.
19:14
I'm bummed that I'm not there,
19:17
but I'm going to try to
19:17
make up for it in the fall
19:18
season for sure.
19:23
So that's where we are
19:24
around the world with everything.
19:27
The other thing that happened today,
19:36
is that CrossFit released
19:38
Road to the Games Part II.
19:41
Now,
19:44
I have a little bit of a problem with
19:46
this,
19:47
and I'm not trying to bash anybody
19:49
or anything,
19:50
but today you have four
19:55
in-person semifinal events
19:57
all going off at the same time.
20:01
You have content creators
20:03
creating content around
20:04
those four things on air all the time.
20:09
And that's when you decide
20:11
to release another road to
20:13
the games when nobody has
20:16
the time to jump in and
20:19
watch that while all this
20:20
stuff is going on.
20:23
It has been such a slow news week.
20:25
I've been cramming for stuff
20:27
to say on the show for the last two days.
20:32
If you would have thrown A
20:33
Road to the Games out on
20:34
Wednesday or Thursday,
20:36
it would get so many views
20:37
because people were
20:38
starving for that going
20:40
into this weekend.
20:41
But no,
20:42
you release it on the Friday when
20:44
all this stuff is starting
20:45
to up and going.
20:48
You have done yourself a
20:49
complete disservice.
20:51
All the hard work that went
20:52
into creating this video,
20:55
because of when you released it,
20:57
you've just muted yourself.
21:02
And I haven't seen it yet.
21:03
I don't know how good it is.
21:05
It may be great,
21:06
but you're not going to see
21:07
the return on that video
21:10
for a long time because
21:12
everybody is watching the
21:13
events that are going on.
21:16
It is utterly ridiculous
21:19
that you would do that.
21:22
Jay Birch says they should
21:23
release every Monday or Tuesday.
21:26
I think Wednesday or Thursday,
21:28
Monday and Tuesday,
21:29
everybody's still recapping stuff.
21:31
Wednesday and Thursday,
21:34
nothing is going on.
21:36
Nothing.
21:38
You'd have clear runway.
21:42
Everybody loves the road to the games.
21:44
Everybody's going to watch them.
21:46
But find the right release
21:48
time to get that done.
21:50
It's ridiculous.
21:54
It's ridiculous.
21:57
When I'm creating content,
21:59
I kind of look to see
22:00
what's going on in the
22:01
space when I release my stuff.
22:06
I'm crazy going on in the
22:07
air right now when
22:08
Syndicate Crown is going
22:09
live and Rebel Renegades is
22:15
going on right now too.
22:17
I'm crazy for doing that.
22:18
I just wanted to stay
22:19
consistent with my lunchtime crew.
22:24
But I know my numbers are
22:25
going to be down today.
22:26
I know it.
22:27
And I was willing to
22:28
sacrifice that just to come
22:30
hang out with everybody and
22:31
see what's going on.
22:33
But CrossFit,
22:33
you're looking for those
22:34
clicks and those views and you need them.
22:37
You keep crying broke in
22:39
every marketing aspect that
22:42
you guys are doing.
22:43
You're self-destructive with it.
22:46
There's no way anybody's
22:47
going to watch that video
22:48
until next week.
22:53
You had a two-week stretch.
22:54
There was no event last weekend.
22:57
You had almost a two-week
22:59
stretch where nothing was going on,
23:01
and you wait until four
23:03
events are going on,
23:04
and that's when you release it?
23:07
That's got to be the dumbest
23:08
marketing move I've ever
23:10
seen in my fifty-five years
23:12
on this planet.
23:17
Well, that or New Coke, one of the two.
23:22
New Coke was pretty bad.
23:26
It didn't matter on the timing on that.
23:27
That was just dumb.
23:32
So,
23:34
Final Heat is coming up with the women
23:39
at the Syndicate Crown.
23:41
This one has Brooke Wells and Erica Folo,
23:44
Caroline Stanley.
23:48
This one's going to be a good one.
23:49
Kyra Milligan.
23:56
so should have used don
24:02
draper jabert you're going
24:04
to be really saddened by
24:06
this but I've never ever
24:07
seen madman mad men never
24:11
ever maybe I need to check
24:15
it out so this is the final
24:22
heat of isabel for the women
24:25
I think the stream's been
24:26
really good from what they
24:29
have put out today.
24:31
I love the fact that Taylor
24:32
is interviewing people from every heat.
24:37
I think that's smart.
24:40
That's something that Jamie
24:41
and I used to do.
24:43
And even Kat and I back in the day.
24:45
And we were the only people
24:47
even out on the floor
24:48
watching the first couple heats.
24:50
But like...
24:53
Rebecca Devine is probably
24:54
going to win this event.
24:55
She was in heat one and they
24:57
got a great interview with her.
24:58
So I think that's important to do that.
25:02
And that's where the
25:03
exposure comes for these up
25:05
and coming semifinal athletes.
25:07
Rebecca Devine is.
25:09
Twenty years old.
25:11
And that exposure exposure
25:13
that she got is awesome.
25:18
Looks like Brooke Wells has
25:19
taken an early lead on this one.
25:21
For sure.
25:23
don't want to stay on too
25:24
long because I don't want
25:25
to um get that nab for
25:28
stuff but I'll keep you
25:29
guys updated what's going
25:30
on but I think the overall
25:33
stream has been great um
25:36
they had a pre-show with
25:37
pedro uh the spin and uh
25:43
tyler watkins this morning
25:45
going through the heat one
25:46
app picks which my props
25:48
are already probably out the window
25:52
As I picked John Young to go six to seven,
25:55
he went sub six.
25:57
I picked the men's Isabel
26:00
time to be faster than the
26:01
women's and Rebecca Devine
26:03
is making that probably not the case.
26:09
So not off to a strong start for sure.
26:17
And I did not have Rebecca
26:18
divine and my heat one app
26:20
to finish well at this.
26:23
So we'll see how this goes.
26:27
Uh,
26:27
Brooke Wells is moving up to the third
26:30
position right now.
26:32
Uh,
26:32
and she's got like a two rep lead over
26:34
Caroline Stanley.
26:40
But yeah, it is, uh,
26:45
I think Brooke still has
26:47
eight reps to go and she's
26:49
at the two forty three mark.
26:52
So I think Rebecca Devine is safe.
26:55
Lexi Neely has passed Caroline Stanley.
26:59
And she is on the second spot.
27:00
She's already got one left in.
27:01
Caroline just moved up.
27:06
I think that's Kyra Milligan is in fourth.
27:11
I didn't see that coming.
27:18
So,
27:19
but a lot can change in these last few
27:21
lifts as the barbell
27:22
definitely gets heavier as
27:23
you're finishing this up.
27:26
Caroline Stanley is using
27:27
the power star approach to her snatches.
27:32
where she is catching it in
27:33
the wide star approach.
27:36
Brooke has just moved into the last block.
27:40
That's three reps to go for her to finish,
27:43
and she's at three thirty nine.
27:45
So Rebecca Devine is going
27:47
to get the win on heavy Isabel for sure.
27:51
Alexi Neely has just moved
27:53
to the first the last block.
27:56
It looks like a one rep
27:57
difference on this.
28:02
Kyra has moved ahead of Caroline Stanley,
28:05
and Brooke has finished at .
28:10
Then we have Kyra and Caroline,
28:13
and Lexi Neely just took
28:16
second in the heat at like .
28:17
And now we have Caroline Stanley,
28:23
and I think Kyra finished before her.
28:30
So Erica follow Shelby Neal
28:33
still on the floor,
28:34
but they're just about done.
28:39
Yeah.
28:40
Erica follow just finished.
28:42
Shelby Neal has one rep to go.
28:46
And there's someone that
28:47
just moved into the final box.
28:50
Shelby Neal caught.
28:52
Oh my gosh.
28:53
Bad miss.
28:54
She caught it deep in the squat,
28:56
tried to come out and then
28:58
walk the bar forward.
29:00
So, um,
29:05
Jay Burch is fifty-fifty on his
29:06
prop picks.
29:09
Yeah.
29:09
I wish I was,
29:10
that's where I always lose on
29:11
the heat one app.
29:12
I'd never get the prop pick bonuses ever.
29:16
Uh, Kyra was wild card.
29:18
I think she finished fourth in the event.
29:23
or Flex was what it's called.
29:25
Yeah, I actually have...
29:29
Rosamond on the men's side I
29:32
had Caroline Stanley on the
29:34
women's and then I have
29:36
Alex majors as my flex pic
29:38
he when I was going to the
29:40
noon class at Polaris he
29:42
was my coach he isn't he
29:44
was an Olympic lifting
29:47
specialist before he
29:49
started CrossFit and he is
29:53
massively strong and really fit.
29:56
And I,
29:57
so I'm hoping I just know something
29:59
because he happens to be my coach,
30:01
but look for him probably
30:03
in the first heat of men,
30:05
first or second heat of men
30:09
to do something.
30:09
Cause he's really strong and
30:12
he loves snatching.
30:14
And I think that he'll have
30:17
a pretty good day on that.
30:22
So,
30:24
There's all that.
30:27
Anything,
30:28
any plans for the weekend for you guys?
30:31
I think I announced
30:31
yesterday that my wife had
30:33
a death in the family.
30:35
So we are actually heading.
30:37
The funeral is Monday morning.
30:40
So we're heading to Pennsylvania.
30:42
I have to take her there.
30:45
probably Saturday night.
30:47
Um,
30:47
I'll do the Sunday show from my mom's
30:48
house.
30:50
And then there may not be a
30:52
lunch with the Clydesdale on Monday.
30:55
Um,
30:57
as we're going to be on the road for
30:59
that funeral, maybe I'll pop on tomorrow.
31:03
Um, just to kind of make up for that.
31:07
Uh, but just look at,
31:07
look out on the YouTube channel,
31:09
see what we got.
31:11
Taylor is interviewing Lexi Neely.
31:18
Everybody was dogging her.
31:21
She is really, really fit.
31:23
And until like recently,
31:25
she was just doing like class workouts.
31:27
Yeah.
31:32
She's going to be good.
31:33
Lex Neely is going to be
31:34
good for a long time.
31:36
And I, and I,
31:37
John was really dogging her
31:38
the other night on the spin.
31:40
And it was great to see her
31:42
kill this event and take a third overall.
31:47
So that was great.
31:51
Headed to Austin to see my
31:52
wife for the weekend.
31:52
Then she flies out to Utah
31:54
and I'm back to Hamilton for the week.
31:57
So Jay Birch, you'd,
32:00
While your wife had to go back to work,
32:01
you're,
32:01
you're living like separately
32:04
except for the weekends.
32:06
Uh,
32:07
so you can help with your grandkids still,
32:08
man.
32:11
What a, what a crank.
32:12
What are ripple in the plans, man?
32:16
What a ripple in the plans.
32:19
That's that's crazy.
32:24
don't know like I don't know
32:26
if my wife and I have been
32:27
apart for more than well
32:30
when I travel for crossfit
32:31
that's the most we're ever
32:32
apart um I just don't know
32:36
if I could do that for a
32:39
long period of time uh
32:41
prayers to you guys man
32:43
that's got to be that's got
32:44
to be tough okay so once
32:48
school starts you're going
32:49
to go back to austin
33:01
And you're watching the
33:02
grandkids through the summer.
33:04
Gotcha.
33:08
You're such a good dad.
33:15
You got to do what you got
33:15
to do to make it work with the family,
33:17
right?
33:21
Yeah,
33:21
the biggest thing I have to... We're
33:23
going to this funeral on Monday.
33:27
We have...
33:29
I have been in a fight with
33:30
my in-laws for about three
33:33
and a half years.
33:36
I have not gone to any
33:37
family function in three
33:39
and a half years on my
33:41
wife's side of the family.
33:45
And my wife needs me this week.
33:48
And because she needs me,
33:50
I am going to my first
33:52
family function in three
33:57
and a half years with my in-laws.
34:00
And that's going to be tough.
34:03
And it's a funeral.
34:05
Like it's,
34:08
it's not a fun event to begin with.
34:11
And it's going to be really tough.
34:21
So I'm going to have to
34:23
reintroduce myself to my
34:25
in-laws for the first time
34:27
in three and a half years at a funeral.
34:32
So it's going to be interesting.
34:36
We'll see how it goes.
34:38
Maybe this can be the
34:40
beginning of amending.
34:45
I'm just really mad at one
34:47
of the members of that family.
34:50
And I hope I can keep my mouth shut.
34:52
I am praying that I can keep
34:54
my mouth shut for twenty
34:56
four to forty eight hours.
34:58
and just get out of there
34:59
unscathed without further damage.
35:05
So when someone messes with your kid,
35:12
it takes a lot to get over and
35:21
what one member did to my daughter.
35:24
And it's nothing like,
35:26
it's nothing scathing.
35:28
It just was how she was treated.
35:32
And my daughter didn't deserve it.
35:36
And it, man,
35:38
I've literally been talking in
35:40
therapy about this for the
35:42
majority of this three and a half years,
35:45
trying to get over it.
35:46
Yeah.
35:49
Yeah, it's going to be fun.
35:52
Well,
35:53
they're at a quick break at Syndicate
35:54
Crown.
35:55
They're going to come back
35:55
with the men's heats.
35:57
I'm going to let you guys go
35:58
check that out.
36:01
But things to look for,
36:02
and maybe I'll pop on
36:03
tomorrow in between events
36:06
just to kind of catch up around the world,
36:08
what's going on.
36:11
Tia's still dominant.
36:13
It's up for grabs on the
36:15
men's side because the top
36:16
three spots cannot get
36:18
tickets to the games.
36:20
Sarah Sigmundsdottir is in
36:22
fifth place and has a shot.
36:24
She is showing big time fitness,
36:28
but she's also showing that
36:29
she cannot run.
36:32
And I wish I could see some of the Torian,
36:35
but the replay is just not
36:37
happening right now.
36:39
So everything we said about
36:41
the WFP and what we hated
36:42
about what was going on
36:44
there is now happening at Torian.
36:50
So with that said,
36:52
enjoy the rest of your day
36:53
of competition.
36:55
Maybe I'll hop on tomorrow
36:56
before we head out.
36:58
With that, guys, have a great weekend.
37:02
And I'm going to get back to work.
37:04
So you knuckleheads get back to work too.
37:06
Even I know you're going to
37:07
have this minimized on your computer.
37:10
um,
37:10
the rest of the day with that guys have
37:14
a great day and we'll see
37:15
everybody next time on
37:17
lunch with the Clydesdale.
37:18
Don't forget Sunday night CrossFit.
37:20
We're going to break it all
37:21
down with Carolyn and Jamie.
37:23
We're still doing that show
37:24
every Sunday night,
37:25
the original Sunday night CrossFit talk.
37:27
Bye guys.
