GRACE!


So for those of you who live under a rock October is breast cancer awareness month!
Kirkland Crossfit among I'm sure Crossfit boxes across the country were participating in Barbells for Boobs!
I was inspired Saturday morning when I walked into Kirkland Crossfit North as saw it was standing room only. Not only is Grace a benchmark workout but it is a true test of mental and physical toughness. 30 ground to overhead is no joke! RX is 95lbs for women 135lbs for men. I am so proud of all of our members (and non-members) who showed up to support the cause. All of us have in some way been touched by someone with breast cancer. It is such an inspiration to be part of a family that helps the community!
Ive included a couple of videos that I think are awesome. The first is a video that KCF has on their website. The other is of Saturday. My handsome husband did amazing!  Yes thats him in the video from Saturday. He did a personal best of 4:20! I on the other hand didn't get to participate...... um, I was pissed! I was sick all of the 5 days before the event and then when I went in to practice my clean and jerks I tweaked something in my back. So I played it safe and just sat it out and went to cheer on my friends! ( I would rant for so much longer but Ill save that for my crossfit friends that I am boring to death with my self pity)
I just want to say great job to everyone who showed up! 
Hope to see you all on Nov 3rd for our grand opening for Kirkland Crossfit North. If for nothing else than taste testing some of the fine Paleo meals our members are bringing.
(Michelle dont be pissed that I included you a video.... ;)
