I wish I got a picture of this achievement last night. Tammy Y. did her first workout RX and it had her most dreaded exercise, running. At first, she asked me if she could scale because she hates running. If you’ve asked me that question in class, you know which direction I like to hedge people towards. So, she did it! As much as this was a physical accomplishment, it was a greater mental accomplishment. Now, when running comes up, Tammy might not like it, but she’ll know she did a 1 1/2 miles and probably could go for more. That’s confidence.
The Muscle Milk crew dropped on by last night and dropped off some samples. That was fun.

Emily, welcome to your first CrossFit class! Get yourself signed up for On Ramp and lets keep this going.



The name Muscle Milk is so disturbing.
mmm, muscle milk. I had one this morning when i came into to teach the AM class.
Best ever when XX asked them what the first ingredient was and they responded with “water” and then he asked what is the second and they said “ummm we don’t know the ingredients actually”
CrossFit Portland I love the Who’s Who you are doing! So fun!!!
“Contains no milk.”
