After completing 91 burpees in seven minutes, I am 19,673rd in the world! And I'm only tied with a few hundred other people! And best of all, I tied Katie Hogan!
I'm working on a blog article about taking pride on how you do at the gym, even if it's the worst score on the board. As long as you did the best you could, you should be proud of yourself.
Crossfit is competitive but you shouldn't be so hard on yourself and comparing yourself to others. I know comparison gives you an idea of where you are at but I think it's more important to just do the best you can do on any given day. If you think you could have done more than 91 burpees than I understand you might be a little frustrated. But you shouldn't allow other people's scores to make you unhappy.
You wouldn't be that hard on someone else so stop being so hard on yourself.
And...(meant playfully) you should be proud you tied Katie Hogan because I bet she can take you on other WODs. : )

Yeah; there's no way I'll match her in other WODs!
