CQOD: Name the tennis player with the most Grand Slam singles titles in the open era. (45 cool points) Bonus question: Which Slam did this person win the most? (20 cool points)
+
Martina Navratolova. US Open.
Good guess, but nope.
OM goodness. That pic is histarical!!
Thanks Bobby and Brian for spotting this morning!!
No problemo, anytime 🙂
I thought Glassman said “the girls” were supposed to leave u on your backing panting, not on your stomach sleeping, haha 🙂
I was trying to go to my ‘happy place’…:)
I think Martina Navratalova had the most singles and doubles grand slam wins but my guess for singles wins would Steffi Graf for the women and Roger Federer for the men. I’ll also say that Steffi won the French open the most.
Cool points for u! Correct on Steffi (and federer) but not the French…
I’ll guess the Australian
if I get a second guess, I say Wimbledon.
You don’t
Nope
So was Wimbledon wrong? How about US open?
Not US Open, Wimbledon is correct. Mom’s 2nd guess didn’t count. I don’t think anyone gets the bonus cool points for guessing the last option in a mult choice question 🙂
Also, it’s nice to see a question that I could make an intelligent guess on.
Black WOD 45:14 Rxd!
Running is not this guy’s strength! It was a little depressing to see people passing on their way back when you still have a half mile before you turn around! I’m still happy with it! Go Hawks!
Blue WOD as Rx’d – 42:58
Went sans vest today, but I would like to point out that compared to Bobby, I’ve been wearing an extra 15 pounds for EVERY WOD thus far…just something to think about.
White WOD, but did the 5k in place of the 2 mile run – 39:08 (I think).
Today was my first morning workout! I have to admit it is pretty nice to work out in the morning. Maybe I will make it routine, just maybe.
This girl is NOT a runner. 41 something. Geesh.
Whatever! You’re amazing!!! 🙂
Love you girl!

Black WOD as Rx’d – 33:05 (took Juan Pablo for a stroll, I have to add that he weighed an extra pound or 2 due to ingestion of Brian’s sweat haha)

5K – 20:38
As always, I will not complain on a Hero WOD day, thank you Army Sereant First Class Severin W. Summers the III, it is a honor, RIP.
That is a rocking 5k with a vest. You wear your Vibrams?
Nope, chickened out. Wore the Inov-8’s. I think it was a good thing too because my calves were already really sore after the run, can’t imagine what it could have been…
I wore my Bikilas and I can tell I’m gonna be sore tomorrow. The Inov8 195s honestly aren’t that different anyway since they’re such a minimalist shoe. I know a lot of people use similar shoes to build up to distance running in their VFFs. Nice work today!
i had the five fingers on! wouldn’t wear anything else!
“Severin” Blue WOD as Rxd – 37:45
Good job to the 5:30 class that did the trail run in the dark…train for the unknown & unknowable, right 😉
Oh yeah, I did get my 5K split also – 23:02
Perfect running weather this morning!!! And yes, as always, great way to start the day with a Hero WOD, and with good reason.
That just means I’m about 3 min. slower than you!! How depressing!!!! You did great!! Way to go!
“Over-Achiever of the Day” Award goes to Todd for his “Platinum WOD” which included a 10K!! And he came running back in to the gym with a smile…a little crazy…but in a good way 🙂
Note: I felt a little bit like Forrest Gump after awhile. I was runnnninnnnggggg! Didn’t see the playground and didn’t see anyone coming back the other way. I’m claiming alien abduction for my stupidity.
Todd, you are DA MAN!! My running hero!! You deserve an award! I love seeing you in the morning!!
Side note: I wish I would have done this WOD at the same time as David…he beat me by 12 seconds – I always love a good race 🙂 Good job! (And say hi to Alex for me, hope we see her soon)
