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. –
