I have become accustomed to a small quiet 6am start to my Tuesdays. Hanging out with Susie or maybe Heather and Kristine. Today a whole bunch of you came out to start your Tue with some heavy deadlifts and some 800m runs (hmmm, I guess I’m giving something away to those of you who are coming later). This is one of my very favorite workouts and it was a great way to start my day. I’m looking froward to doing it myself with Mike at the helm at 9:00am. I wanted to mention especially that Chris was here (see photo above) and that he has only finished his Fundamentals a few days ago, but is moving to Texas next week. We are sad to see him go, but of course he can do workouts on his own at the remote resort he is going to work at. I have encouraged him to post his results and progress to our comments and that we all will still be his CrossFit crew from afar so be sure to wish him well and look for Chris’ posts in the coming weeks and give him some feedback so he doesn’t feel all alone CrossFitting in the desert.
I am so sad Chris is leaving so soon after meeting him! Keep in touch! And make sure you fit in some yoga stretches with all the crossfitting!
Yes of course we all love Chris. I will do my best to keep in touch with him but more immediately, I am so happy that we have such a great Crossfit community. I absolutely love going and am so happy that I have found you all.
As a side note, I have wanted to do a regular, full-on push up and on Saturday I did one! It may have been after some drinks but I was super excited none the less.
Thanks again…
Hey Ellie,
Great Job on the push-up! I assume since it was after a few drinks that you weren’t at the gym… “Partying with Push-ups” that’s the only way to go!
You go Ellie! Now you will have to show me the next time I see you! Be prepared!
We’ll miss you Chris! Keep up the CrossFitting, and hurry back! Also, I witnessed Ellie’s push-up. It was great! CrossFit moves make great party tricks!
Greetings Crossfitters… Thanks for the well-wishes. I am settling in here at Cibolo Creek. My first crossfit exercise was work related… carrying very heavy luggage for a group of 25 Garden Club ladies from Dallas. I think they all packed their encyclopedia collections because those suitcases were HEAVY!
