Not a Chance......

Meaning there's not a chance I'm telling you what tomorrow's WOD is because so many of you skipped today when you saw how sucky it was going to be.  Hats off to all of you who showed up today for the "100 thrusters, for time" wod.

I'll give you a little hint though, you'll see a list of stuff on the board that you have to do with no concern about how long it will take.  You'll have plenty of neurological adaptation, mainly taxing your vestibular system.  Don't waste you time on Google, just know you'll be upside down a lot.
