On behalf of Taylor, Jack and I..Just wanted to thank you guys for a great few weeks..what a treat to work with such motivated, enthusiastic individuals!
I also wanted to commend you regulars who show up time and time again at odd hours of the day. Whether you know it or not, you’re taking an active role in your health. Look around you; most of the people you see aren’t. Most people are content to be in moderately good shape, or moderately good health. There aren’t too many who make the conscious decision to push past the accepted bare minimum of wellness. You guys have. By showing up you have decide not to settle for ‘good enough’. You are setting yourselves up for the future in ways you won’t appreciate until you get there. That’s a powerful thing.
So Long Kira!
Kira is heading to Hawaii for the summer, we will miss you very much at the box. Have fun working out at a CrossFit gym in Hawaii! Look forward to having you back soon. Good luck! Kira, we are so proud of your accomplishments at the box over the last 6 months. You will be missed…..

For those of you who do not know.. CrossFit is quickly becoming “the training” program for all Military and Law Enforcement establishments. Since day one CrossFit has embraced our men and women in uniform and they have chosen(rightly so) to honor the Heroes who gave their lives to keep us and our country safe.
I would like to say THANK YOU to all those who have chosen to lay your life on the line to Protect and to Serve us.
“Daniel”
50x pull ups
400 meter run
21x thrusters 95# (65)
800 meter run
21x thrusters 95# (65)
400 meter run
50x pull ups
Dedicated to Army Sgt 1st Class Daniel Crabtree who was killed in Al Kut, Iraq on Thursday June 8th 2006.
These CrossFit Hero WODs are the most intense workout experiences that I think a human being can have. They are conceived, and are intended to be performed with intense effort, in honor of fallen Heroes, usually servicemen. It is because of these Hero workouts that I really feel that CrossFit helps develop the total person. That’s one of the greatest benefits of CrossFit, the mental fortitude that it develops. You just can’t get that from watching yourself in the mirror while you do bicep curls at the local globo. Does your workout expand your mental limits? If not, maybe it’s not helping you develop the total person you can become..
