News Flash!!!!!!!

Our very own Laura Cook won the Brighton Burn Ergatta today!! A 2K row in 8:02!!!! Woohoo! You go woman! We are all proud of you!

Get ready for more stretching

Ok....I've never been a big fan of stretching....always boring and painful in my opinion....turns out I was doing it wrong.

Attended a CrossFit Movement and Mobility seminar today in NYC and have been completely convinced that I need to add more stretching and mobilty drills to our programming. The presenter, Kelley Starrett of CrossFit San Francisco was an excellent presenter, knowledgeable and interesting. I learned some simple techniques to loosen (especially us slightly older folks) us up and keep our joints healthy.

I also got to visit CrossFit NYC which I have wanted to do for a long time and got to see Keith from CrossFit Virtuosity, Clea from CrossFit Ithaca, Dave from CrossFit South Brooklyn, and Steve and Greg Lobotsky from Hudson Valley CrossFit as well as several Facebook friends. Had a blast navigating the subways to stay with my wonderful niece Katherine, and generally had a very nice time. NYC is a very fun place to visit. Maybe we should arrange a CrossFit NYC field trip!

I made it to NYC

Made a little slideshow for ya'll while I was on the train!

working on our push ups

"Curves" just wasn't enough for her....

Karen had already lost a significant amount of weight when she came here in late July. Since then, she has not only learned to talk and make jokes with us...she is doing amazing work! 555 CrossFit Total, unassisted pull ups, double unders, handstands, size 6 pants! She is a force to be reckoned with! You go lady! We are all very proud of you!

She got it!

Rope jumping clicked for Katie today! We are both very happy!

We're still working hard!

9 AMers

Wednesday night kickboxing class doing some pull ups!

Bridgette was here this morning!

Did I mention that she works out at 5 AM! Anyone want to join her?

Courtney just makes back squats look beautiful! And she found out that ring pull ups are a bit harder than the regular ones!

Andrew and Jessica would have had better times.....

.......If they hadn't had to fight Tim for the rings every single round! It's interesting having a cat in charge!

Eric with ATG squat. Nice! Dede and Vicky demonstrating synchronized wall balls.
