Katie has a great description of the Burpee. (Zuzana Light - a fellow Canadian of Slavic decent - called and asked if she could be considered if Katie was not going to do it. Katie agreed, so it was no contest. Next time Zuzana.)
Interesting stuff from the Discovery Channel (boom-dee-a-da, boom-dee-a-da) that Katie talked about:

Darn it I thought it was a burping contest.
Ugg. I've had worse two minutes of my life I suppose.
27 years old, resting heart rate 42 bpm. I did the calcs 3 different ways and came up with 148-158 so I chose 153 bpm.
Where's the jump? That chick isn't jumping - that's the main part!
In the AF, we called the one's with the jump "flying" or "Tabatha" burpees ... dunno ... we'll see what Katie says are the official.
Those look like a lot of work!
But I might actually try one! :)
Posted!! And yes I do mine with a jump at the end and then right back into squat position.
wow,im in!!!
Oh ... it's not Slurpee??? Hope 7-Eleven will take these back!
My form is terrible, but, um, maybe. Maybe.
oh i'm not in good enough shape for this.

Ah...geeze!! I'm in! Scared but in!!

You are a BEAST.
Posting on Monday.
Can Katie come to my house and demonstrate in person?
My fragile old ultra body will break in many places if I try this.
The last time I did something of similar was 30 years ago when I was a modest rugby player.
...let's try....the last prize could be mine.
I hate burpies but -
I’m throwing down the gantlet – I’m in!
Wow, those are tough, if I had some coordination skills, I may actually try videotaping it! :)
Chris~ If you pay for my flight and hotel (week stay) in Cali, I will most certainly come demonstrate for you.
I'm in!
If my knee allows, I am in. Burpees are fun, Really.
This sounds awesome. I start training today. :)
high school nightmare!!!!!!!
That looks awful. I'll just watch (and taunt, where necessary) from afar.
attempt #1 -21 and totally out of breath! Love 'em! Thanks "Run For the Bikini!"
I'm with Chris. I'm going to need some 1:1 demonstration of how these work before I attempt to make a fool out of myself on my blog. I mean, I never make a fool on my blog. never.
23 yesterday, I'll post my highest video on the 16 th :D
Adam~ Just Do It! :)
