I have to throw out a few Honorable mentions to Matt Stevens who had a 26.1% improvement and Mike Carlson with a 22.7% improvement.
Again – Great work to everyone!
Stay tuned for a New Years challenge to kick off with some ‘new rules’ and challenges. Possibly some team and pairs options.
I want to take a moment to congratulate Capital’s CrossFitters who competed on Saturday at both the Cold War Games in Lorton, VA and the Hot Chocolate 15K Race at the National Harbor, MD. Way to go! As always, you are an inspiration to the rest of us!
Also, Coach Casey will be competing at yet another ultra-event! As most of you are aware, he is now a Regional Coordinator for the Wounded Warrior Project, and as is like him, is taking his passions for helping others and fitness to a new extreme. So, welcome to the 2011 World’s Toughest Mudder!
Ben Lunak, a Wounded Warrior, will be accompanying Casey. Here is a video of him during FGB 5:
“No matter how tough the race may be, and how tired I may get, my pain will be nothing that he and so many others have had to feel and overcome. I’m not looking for any donations, I just wanted to bring this to your attention, and to the attention of everybody at the Capital family. The workout is in two weeks, on December 17th and 18th in New Jersey.”
