The long overdue Hound Pound warming party has come and gone. What a great night. Good times, good friends and good food. Paleo snacks, HP challenge for prizes, Paleo dinner and a UFC fight all in one - can't think of a better way to spend a Saturday night!
For those of you that missed out on the event, the evening was packed full of action. After some pre-wod Paleo snacks the Hound Pound challenges took way. There were 15 competitors competing for 4 top prizes and the competition was fierce. The first event kicked off with the Hound Pound throw. We saw various methods and techniques but in the end Sweeny and LTP took the challenge with 21.5 foot and 12.4 foot throws respectively. Next up was the Hound Hold (previously scheduled as the Hound Pull, but what's a CF challenge without throwing in the "unknown"). Competitors had to hold 1pd & 1.5pd kettle bells by the horns while doing a wall sit with legs at 90 degrees for as long as they could. Competitors’ went head-to-head for this one, but the strongest legs and wills took the heats. Randy Van B held out for 1:40 and LTP a hound holding 2:10! Outstanding. The last challenge of the day was the Hound Hang - one arm static hang for as long as possible. We had some great times on this one, but again Rand Van B took the challenge for the men with a time of 1:13 beating out the next competitor by only seconds. The women’s champ for this one was Laura McD (who excels at anything on the pull up bar). Laura beat out the other women (and men) by many seconds with a total hold time of 1:25. Impressive! After tallying the distances and times the champions were determined. And the winner’s were...
