In case you haven't heard yet, news came out Annie Thorisdottir, female winner of the 2011 and 2012 Crossfit Games, will not be competing in this years Crossfit Games.  She had injured her back while she was training during the open and hasn't fully recovered.  Hope to see her back soon and stronger than ever next year.  You can check out her announcement RIGHT HERE.

I'm pretty stoked this evening!  The 2011, 2012 Crossfit Games champion Rich Froning has a YouTube channel where he will answer questions from fans on his YouTube videos that he posts every day.  Well, a couple days ago I decided to ask him a question about how long before a competition does he back off from training in order to rest his body.  To my surprise on today's video mine was the first question asked and answered.  Check it out RIGHT HERE.  As you can tell I'm pretty geeked out right now!!!  Also if you get a chance check his Crossfit Mayhem website for really great WODs.  This morning I did one of their WODs that consisted of a 20 minute AMRAP of 250m row and 25 pushups.  You guys should give it a try.

The Blog is back!

Hey all, my name's Rick. This is a quick blog update to let everyone know that I just got access to write on the blog and will be posting our WODs and other stuff as often as I can.  We workout every week day from approx 1200-1300 except for national holidays.  Due to the fact we have a small indoor area, we may have to cancel some days due to inclement weather but don't be sad because you can do the WOD on your own by checking here for the WOD.  Be sure to visit our FaceBook page and hit the like button.  Heck you can even post your WOD times/reps if you want to brag a little.
