PCF ladies expand by one….Baby Sawkar Nanini is here! Drea and Siddharth’s baby girl was born at 2:54am. Mom and baby are both doing great.
PCF is celebrating our One Year Anniversary next month!! We’re hosting a party at the Box on Saturday, August 15th from 1-4pm. Join us for food, drinks and all the Britney Spears you can take. Please RSVP in the comments section or via Facebook if you plan to attend.
5 Rounds of:
1 min Box Jumps, 24/20 in
1 min Kettlebell Swings, 1.5/1.0 pood
1 min Double Unders
Rest 90 sec between each round
Post total reps for each round to comments.


For all the hopper fanatics yesterday, Crossfit BWI gave me the low down on the reg process. The website http://www.midatlantichopper.com will be up by the end of the month and then we can register on there…
Weird link….
This one looks great. It is my mission to make it to a WOD. Either the 7 or the 8. Make sure you hold your breath Dan.
I’m headed to the 7 pm WOD for this one…Emma, I haven’t seen you in a long time
Always thankful for the time you helped me finish a WOD by doing my last set of squats with me!
What if we can’t do double unders yet?
Any suggestions from the peanut gallery on taking care of a touch of tendonitis in my knee? It’s fine when warming up but gets stiff and sore overnight. I have no known knee injuries.
Right now I’m icing it religiously and taking ibuprofin for swelling (although swelling is only very minor).
Thanks!
I’ll obviously be DJing the 1-year anniversary.
The foam roller helped me a ton with tendonitis this past winter. I also laid off of the box jumps and squats for a couple weeks.
Time: 4.5 hours from first contraction to BEAUTIFUL little girl! Mama Drea proved her mettle by delivering (sans drugs!) before the doctor even arrived. Our girl’s amazing!!
Oh wow Alli. I am so happy for Drea. 4 hours is amazing. And NO meds – WOW. She is certainly my new hero. Thanks for sharing the info.
What a joy it is to wake up to that news!! (Brian, I am sorry, but I’m not referring to your choice of DJ for the soiree).
No matter what direction you have chosen for your life, no matter the intensity of your focus and the sureness of your quest, all things pale in comparison when your family grows by one. Only one thing in the human experience can compare to the sudden awareness of your own capacity for love when you become a parent: the overriding joy of being loved by your child.
Mazeltov to you three!
congrats to drea and siddarth. Great to hear all are doing well.
In for the 1 year anniversary party…
Most beautiful picture ever!!!!
Jenn Jett (that might be the coolest name I’ve ever heard),
I will surely be there tonight. AND I will be aiming for the 7 pm so that we can reunite. Blame my job for my absence as of late (and find me a new one).

Congrats Drea and Siddarth!!!
Congrats to Drea and Siddarth! I can’t wait to see tons of adorable baby pictures!!!
Congratulations Drea and Siddharth…happy to hear Sawkar-Nanini team is doing well!!!
CONGRATS! So happy for all of you and glad everyone is doing well. Can’t wait to meet the little one.
Congrats Drea and Siddharth on the new baby girl!!!
GO DREA! congratulations to the new parents — we love you guys. so excited for you.
Mazel Tov!
Can we ask now what the baby’s name is?
Who knew that someecards.com had a whole baby section:
http://www.someecards.com/baby-cards/newest
Siddharth/Drea – just pick your favorite one out of there and that’s the one I would have sent.
Congrats!!
Congrats Drea and Siddarth and impressive performance by Drea. My sister just had a baby and was going to go “natural” until about an hour after going into labor. That’s quite a feat to pull off – I’m sure all the extra strength training didn’t hurt.
Congrats Siddharth and Drea!! WOOOO!!
Congrats Drea and Siddarth !!
Hope it goes that well for us.
302 i think Damn DU’s
Congrats to the new parents.
I’d recommend starting the new girl off on 4 blocks a day. Make sure she is drinking plenty of fluids. If she isn’t losing that tough baby fat within a week or two, I’d cut the carbs in half. She’ll have more pullups and lower BF than Brian in no time.
Congratulations to Drea and Siddarth! Parenthood is a great adventure.
88 ,75, 65, 66, 61
Total: 355 as rx’d
File this workout in the “harder than it looks” category.
Congrats to the new parents!!!
249 with a 20″ box, 40lb KB swing and 5x single unders
Katie and I are in for the party!
Congrats Drea and Siddharth!
I heard that the baby already has more hair on her head than Brian. Congratulations folks. I’m wondering if they make Vibram Five Fingers in infant sizes.
To those who have done and plan to do today’s WOD:
foam roll foam roll foam roll
And when you’re finished. Foam Roll some more. This is going to tire your lower back. For this WOD, you’ll make your money on the double unders
Congrats! What a beautiful picture, i can feel the happiness!
Congrats to Drea and Siddharth!
345 RX’d – DNF last round of DU’s -
I plan to attend the party.
Congratulations Drea and Siddharth! Drea you ROCK and can add birthing skills to the list…
I am sure Baby Nanini will think a pacifier is a kettlebell just her size…
Congrats to Drea and Siddharth !!!!
Congratulations to Mom, Dad, and Baby!
Our Drea was a real champ in the delivery room this morning – all went exceptionally well and she really rocked that whole labor thing. Little Nehla already has a killer grip….we tried to get her to knock out her first pullup immediately following her first bath, but the nurses weren’t having it. She was 6 lbs 10.9 oz and 19 inches long. Drea, Nehla and Siddharth are all doing great.
Congrats Drea and Siddharth!!
What an amazing picture that really tells the story. Congrats to both of you. Little Nehla will be kicking ass in no time! You both must be so proud…and why not, what a beautiful little life you get to love, enjoy, and occassionally clean up after
for years to come!
Congrats Drea and Siddharth, glad to hear went well
I’ll be at the 1 year anniversary
Congratulations Drea and Siddharth! I’m so excited!
Best pic I saw on this site in awhile. Congrats Drea and Siddharth !!
Will Baby CrossFit be the next offering at PCF?
Congrats Drea and Siddharth! I feel bad for the man that tries to ask out your daughter! He’ll see the “guns” on both the parents and be intimidated!!! Enjoy your new baby girl!!
Interesting article (click name,) looks like Runner’s World could possibly be admitting that workouts similar to those in CFE work better than their traditional ones.
Got the link from the running group I’m supposed to be running with for the Marine Corps Marathon… haven’t gone to a single run yet, but may show up to put them all to shame for this one
Congrats, Drea and Siddharth!
[If she does a kipping pullup before me, I'm going to have to kick her butt.]
Just bought some more bands guys:
http://www.jumpstretch.com/osc/catalog/index.php?cPath=21&osCsid=6113539f01cc3f8a2546229994d1453d
Bought a bunch of the monster mini’s, mini’s, and micros. Hopefully these won’t snap and kill people like the last ones we bought…
Congratulations Drea and Siddharth!
Welcome to the no sleep parenting club!!!
Please let me know if you need anything.
Kassi, The Yasso 800′s are a great workout for long distance runners. They’re really only accurate for people who already have a decent endurance base, so if you are capable of running for 3-4 hours, then this will be a good measure of how fast you can do it.
Much better to do this then to go out for 60-90 minute jog on your non-long run, non-interval day. Marathoners really do have some good workouts, its just that most people don’t train like real marathoners they train like joggers. And if they do train like marathoners they pack a lot of meaningless miles around the important parts (long run, interval, tempo being the important parts), when they should be using that time to get stronger and spare muscle mass.
Yeah Drea & Siddharth!!
Welcome to the world baby Nehla. I can’t wait to meet you.
Congratulations Drea and Siddharth!
Thanks for all of the sweet words you guys!!! We can’t wait for her to meet her PCF Family!
it was an awesome experience to say the least and I couldn’t have been more efficient…dude, I can’t imagine doing that for HOURS!! Thank you CrossFit!
I am so proud of my girls, Siddharth and (of course) little Nehla!
Would anyone like my spot in this Sunday’s Power Lifting Seminar with Aaron? I hate to miss it but am flying to Fresno, CA for work on Monday.
Shoot me an email at ebongard14 at gmail dot com if you are interested.
Fried from today’s WOD….525 as rx’d.. thank goodness for double-unders.
Nice work to Seamus and Rick P. putting up monster numbers (700 and 565 respectively)..
Scott Q…nice try.
Two rest days now…can’t wait for the delayed muscle soreness.
Congrats Drea and Siddharth!
Just a reminder that this Saturday, July 25th is the PCF BBQ at Quincy Park, located at Washington Boulevard and North Quincy Street. (The grills and picnic tables are on the opposite side of the park, off of North Nelson Street) Start time is 3pm. We will be running it like the PCF movie premier… “BYOE” or Bring Your Own Everything! There are soccer fields, beach volleyball, softball, and basketball courts at the park – along with a playground that has monkey bars in case you need to get a few rounds of pullups in between burgers. Feel free to bring frisbees, footballs, bocce ball, water balloons, etc.
Picnic tables and grills are provided at the park. Paper products, utensils, grill stuff, and cups will be available for everyone to use, BUT please bring a snack to share in addition to whatever you plan to grill. We know how much everyone likes to eat – and more is always better!
Lastly, please remember that this is a public park so your beverage of choice must be in a cup or discreet container. And of course, ALL are welcome – bring your friends and significant others!
Please let me or LeeAnn know if you have any questions! Hope to see ya’ll there!
Congrats! I can’t wait to meet her…let me know if she needs a ski coach…
565 as Rx’d
Boo. I so hate to miss the BBQ, esp. since it is stumbling distance from my house! But, I’m camping this weekend. Have a weiner (no bun, please) and a drink or 3 for me!
Congratulations Drea and Siddharth! Drea, just remember to take it slow. Wait a few months, and then attempt slow walking.
Congrats Drea and Siddharth!! Welcome to the world Nehla!!!
I will be at the anniversary party (if work schedule allows). Wish i could make it this Saturday to the BBQ, but work gets in the way of life again.
Congratulations Drea and Siddharth!
Can’t wait to meet Nehla.
Congrats Drea and Siddharth
Congratulations to both Drea and Siddharth!
Drea and Siddharth -
Congrats!
As for today’s WOD…
DUs are horrific as usual.
393 Rx’d.
Congratulations Drea & Siddharth !!
Not sure of the language of origin or the meaning of the name, but its a pretty cool and unique
Congrats Drea and Siddarth!!!
Everyone put away your kitchen scales and measuring cups and pick up some doughnuts! The glucagon pill is on it’s way.
Pretty soon everyone will be able to peel off bodyfat just like people who are zoning. I’m going to go ahead and guess that – despite having a glucagon pill and less bodyfat – if you eat the same way obese people eat, you will still die (skinnier) of the same diseases.
click on my name for the article. sorry if this is old news to some of you.
How about all of the people who haven’t bothered to upload gratar pictures GET ON THAT?!?!?
And by gratar I mean gravatar.
Emma:
Everything I do, I do it for you.
Nice. Now people will surely recognize you at the box.
I think my meat-dealing habits are forcing people to refer to me as “that girl with the cooler” anyway.
454- Rx’d
Congrats on the little one!!
Drea & Siddharth: Congratulations on your little Crossfitling.
Congrats Drea and Siddarth!!!
301 as Rxd. I fing hate double unders. I also now have jump rope whip marks across my whole upper torso. great wod, really great.
Rich S. – I concede that three days in a row you have whopped up on me in the WOD. My ego is at an all time low knowing that i am being beat by a person who cant grow hair on his chest. I need to get my sh&t straight, this is just embarrassing.
Tes – thanks for the help with the double unders!!! I still hate em.
Ok this calls for my first post ever on this site. CONGRATULATIONS Drea and Siddharth!!! We’re very excited for you. So, ummm, is the CSA box big enough for 3? You might have to fight over the tomatoes. And for the record if Nehla can do double unders before me I’m going to be really mad!
Congrats Siddharth and Drea!
Congratulations Drea and Siddharth! May she grow to be healthy and strong, just like her parents.
267
35# KB
single unders 5:1
I forgot to foam roll
601 as RX’D
Great effort at the 5pm. I am still reeling from this one.
I think my count was on the high side. 25lb kb and a mix of 5:1 singles and double unders here and there. I counted 330, but I’m not sure…it was hard to keep track of the whole 5:1su/du mix so I would say closer to 315-ish.
Nice work, Mike! Double what I did. Everyone did a really awesome job!!
335
25# KB to take it easy on pulled upper neck
24″ box
single unders 5:1
336
480 rx’d
My lungs suck, I really need to stop smoking crack
540 rx’d
361 as Rx’d. This one sucked! Still don’t feel right!
512 as RX’d.
KB swings were the weak link.
And congrats Drea and Siddarth.
And Aviv is a dbag
Congrats Siddharth and Drea!!!!
Congrats Siddharth and Drea!!!
375
20 inch box, 25 lb KB swings (since my back tends to crumble on KB swings), and double unders
315 Rx’d
KB swings are not fun
Congratulations Drea and Siddarth!!!!!
155, almost as Rx’d – kettlebell swings not quite high enough for Rx’d
380 need to get better at du
379 as R’xd.
What the hell Kyle?
Congrats Drea and Siddarth…. SO EXCITING!!!!
454 Rx’d
Once again congrats Drea and Siddharth – that baby is cute.
498 as rx’d
I estimated my score at 350 RX’d as I have only managed to count one round and even then it was a guess.
The first two rounds could not have been less enjoyable.
And of course, Congrats to the Drea and Siddharth
I cannot do double unders
I didn’t count any of my singles on the last 3 rounds towards my numbers…so, this is all box jumps and kettle bell swings=168.
I need to practice my double unders…will I EVER get there?
By the way…Congrats to Drea and Siddarth…Drea makes even me believe that when the day comes to have a baby, it CAN be done sans drugs!!! And I’m a nurse anesthetist=pro epidural
Put many in laboring moms and watched the wonders it did for them.
Total: 240
2 double unders. Lots of singles (although I didn’t count those).
Between yesterday and today I seriously doubt my ability to walk tomorrow…
460 rx’d.
Horray for Baby!!!
Double unders sucked. 271 rxd.
As if I needed a reminder that I suck at double unders….324 or something, as rx’d. I’m blaming my suckage at the fact that I am running on 2hrs of sleep cause I was up all night (and then went to work, cause D was so awesome that she popped the baby out in way less time than we anticipated) watching a beautiful little girl come into the world…..and it was TOTALLY worth it.
348 (35# KB – body still hurting from this weekends WODs)…
Vaughn, thanks for the Zone spreadsheet. Going on 2 days of weigh/measure and recording…
And Congrats Siddharth and Drea!!!!
407 or something like that. My legs are FriEd! That’s what I get for doing 2-a-days
Congratulations to Drea and Siddharth! Can’t wait to meet her. See you guys soon!
I think this might be a PCF posting record today. People (like me) coming out of the woodwork…You’d think someone gave birth or something….
Congrats Drea and Siddharth. Well done!
Bummed I’ll miss the bbq this weekend (racing my first triathlon – olympic distance), and just as bummed I’ll miss the year anniversary of PCF in August (second tri in Luray, for good measure).
I guess that means I should try to see folks by showing up for WODs. I think in August my goal will be:
31 days
AMWAP (as many wods as possible)
225, with a total of maybe 10 DUs. I did manage to string two together at one point. I missed the third due to my surprised reaction…
348 Rx’d
Congrats Drea and Siddharth!
390 as RX’ed
the KB swings destroyed my back and I still suck at DUs
206 with a big fat 0 for the F’n double unders, since there is a kid present I will keep the language clean…
336 Rx’d
Double unders were good, but not unbroken. MUCH better than they used to be though
305, Double unders need work.
Awesome work Emma!!
Congratulations to Drea and Siddharth for bringing little Nehla into the world.
199 reps for the WOD, a number which includes 8 double-unders (2,0,0,1,5). Box jumps for first three rounds, then step-ups. 1.5 pood KB for first three rounds, then 1 pood.
310, with 25lb KB.
Very few of these were double unders.
Thanks Sally! I learn from the master
Congratulations Drea and Siddarth!
Congratulations Drea and Siddharth!!!! Such a beautiful family!
I reckon finding a decent one from the wide range of CNA schools out there is probably the hardest part of it. Other than that, stick with it and you will see the light at the end soon enough. It is hard work though, and not for the feint hearted!
I have some used cars.Such as Carmy/Focus/Civic/Corolla,and all cars price only 1000 dollar.plz visit best used cars under 1000
