Oh, Nancy!

When I was in junior high, I listened to the morning radio show from Allentown, PA every day while I got ready for school. My favorite segment was when the DJ would read from Nancy, “the world’s most popular, unfunny comic strip.”

See? Really not so much with the funny.

You know what else isn’t funny? This:

Nancy
5 rounds for time:

• 15 overhead squats, 45 lbs.
• 400 m run

My time: 17:48

I’d never had the pleasure of meeting Nancy before, so I wasn’t sure what weight to try. In retrospect, I think I could have gone 50 or 55 lbs., but the 45-lb. bar gave me a workout, especially when I focused on getting low enough on the squat that I hit the “stick” at the bottom.
