Community




















I love how CrossFit can bring together people who never would have seen each other into such a strong community. On the bottom is Aaron; I meet him last week when he came up to me asking about Crossfit...I've trained him twice since and he's been doing a great job and working hard. On the top is Matt; he was the first one I introduced to Crossfit and he's kicking ass and has been making some serious progress. I've meet and helped several other Crossfitters down here as well, and I feel as though I'm helping build a community down here.

In preparation of this growing community, I've started to buy some more equipment; not just for myself anymore, but more so I get can multiple people in on workouts. Today I'm ordering 3 Abmats, and in 2 weeks, I'll have saved up enough to purchase a good amount of medicine balls. My goal is to have saved up enough equipment by the time I get certified in May, that I can start running weekly workouts at the park and the beach.

Than I'll begin saving towards a box of my own. Hopefully, I'll be able to pull that off at the beginning of the summer of 2009, right after I graduate. Until then though, I will be talking to everyone I can about CrossFit and hopefully building up a BIG community, so I won't be in that box by myself. Again, I want to thank everyone for their inspiration, support, and influence to follow my dreams.

Alright, and here are some of my recent workouts and times (besides the core work):
