It was Christine’s 59th Birthday on Tuesday this week and we wish her the best!!! She has been CrossFitting for over a year now and we wanted her birthday WOD to be extra special. A year ago, she wrote us a very kind and nice testimonial (scroll down the page). Becareful of what you wish for!!! She has done the CrossFit workout “Murph” a few months ago already – run 1 mile, 100 assisted pull ups, 200 push ups, 300 squats, and then run another mile. What about carrying Xi Xia around the block though??? Lets find out :)

    Christine!! Are you kidding me??!! I would have never guessed you were 59! You are so strong to carry XX around that block and I think it was more than 400 M cause of some of the obstacles.. so at least 405+, huh!? Plus hills!! JUST AWESOME! :-) Way to go.. I am SO SO PROUD OF YOU!! I can’t cheer load enough on email.. HHHOOOOORRAAYYYY!!! :-)

    PS – It always makes me smile to see you when I walk into CFP. :-) –
