5/21

We made it!

What a great experience.  Really.  Inspiring, fun, emotional, grueling, awesome.  We saw our little team do more that believed possible.  EVERYONE.  Amy Cash, flung the 70lb dumbell over her head like it was a warmup.  Holland and Christina turned heads as such tiny ladies moved such big weight sooo fast.
Ben and Joe not only moved the big weight when needed to, but churned through the bodyweight stuff like it was nothing.  Joe almost pr'ed his snatch, only to have a shoulder strain hold him back.... which was a shame because it left me doing the final muscle up heavy wod with Ben.  (Dont worry, he carried me;)  And in the final event Holland and Stina brought everyone in the arena to their feet and screaming as they finished one of the more grueling wods of the weekend.

All in all, expectations were exceeded.  It was awesome.  But probably the best part was posting facebook notifications and seeing 30 'likes' in an hour.  Your support meant more than you guys know.  We would not have been able to do half of what was done if not for your constant encouragement and support year round.  We really do have a wonderful group.  And we are SO much more proud of the kind of gym that you guys have made us into, by being who you are every day, than the results of any competition.

Thanks
