[vc_row padding_top="0px" padding_bottom="0px"][vc_column fade_animation_offset="45px" width="1/1"][text_output]16.5 Is over! its all over! with the exception of one last wod this coming friday, same time, same place... also, if you feel as though there are some scoring issues (which there should be) there were about 8 people who DIDN'T put a score in, and I'm not sure what the times were if they did do it - because I haven't received an email from them with their score, like they are supposed to do if they forget to put their score in. So if you did the workout, and you have a "0" on the google sheet, email me with the wod time and I will change the scores up.
