Snatch's, Romanian DeadLift's and Box Jump's tend to put a hurt on anyone. Great Monday effort everyone.

We really liked this picture of Steph because its a solid Box Jump.

It is HOT outside don't forget to drink lots of water and here's something to keep you cool...Ice

Monday

WODs at 6am, 11am, 530pm, 630pm.

Box Jumps = 58

Workout pushes boundaries of no pain, no gain.

Kevin, Cubby, Jordan, Captain and a few others headed into the mountains to do some Downhilling.   If you've never been to Downieville, Ca., then you need to get there.  Even if you don't ride a Mountain Bike, you should go check out this historic mountain town located in the Sierra Nevada's.  It's like a little slice of heaven.

The crew watches on as Jordan navigates through the VERY technical ROCK GARDEN!

Good friends and bikes yield great memories.

Saturday
WOD 9a
Saturday Gym Hours 9a-12p
Box Jumps= 54

Kevin, Jordan and Cubby are taking a well deserved rest. A few days in Downieville will certainly clear their heads. Nothing like speeding down, jumping and dropping your mountain bike on sweet singletrack while negotiating a hundred foot cliff on either side to really relax a guy.
Well that's how a Crossfitter relaxes.

Everyone else is in for a treat. This guy will be teaching the classes

 Thanks Justin for taking the next few days.

Thursday

May you live to be a hundred years

Since Crossfit Nor-Cal had a friendly competition with CrossFit South Brooklyn over the weekend doing "Jackie", we decided to run it as well on Monday just for fun.  We had some solid times, but John Fragoso's 6:05 and Vanessa Lambert's 7:33 from Nor-Cal were amazing, so we didn't get em' this time. 

Deannie (near rower) is now joining the group classes after completing the fundamentals course last week.  Congrats and welcome!  Rob, Mike, and Candace also grinding out "Jackie".

Dawn's been getting up early for the 6am and workin' hard!

Monday

Wods at 6a, 11a, 530p, 630p

Athlete spotlight Aaron Davis. Aaron has been with us for a few months and has seen amazing progress. Coming from a competitive swimming background he took to crossfit like a fish in water. Soon to be water polo player were sure he will be the best. Its been fun watching you battle your way through these wods, keep it up Aaron!

Sunday - REST

We had a blast at Level 10 CrossFit in Oroville and really appreciate their hospitality.  We brought 9 CFR members to play in their "Filthy Fifty" Challenge.  There were some solid times by both gyms and everyone had a great time.  

Afterwards, we all went to Papa Jays and did some swimming and grilled up some grass-fed beef.  If you haven't had it before, then you need to find a way to get some.  The flavor is spectacular!

3-2-1 Go!!!

(Thank you Margo)

 While we were having fun in Oroville, our very own Sandy has been at Whistler in B.C. Canada doing a little Mountain Biking; but she hits stuff a little more aggressively than your average rider 

(Sandy, we are all jealous)!  

Get comfortable with being uncomfortable

Saturday

Saturday WOD at 9am with Jordan.  

The rest of us will be at Level 10 CrossFit in Oroville for a friendly "Filthy Fifty" competition.  If you want to join us, be at the gym at 730am.

Box Jumps = 40

5K was the recipe for Friday.  If you didn't hit the 5k run on Monday, then you got to make it up.  If you did, then a 5k row was in order.

Denise at 6am

Aaron posted a 20:40 (one second faster than Kevin) and Gary with a solid time as well.

Amanda having fun on a 5k row???

K.T. finally gets a 5k done.

It is only when you are prepared to look at everyday life with fresh eyes that you start to see what it is really all about.

A reminder to everyone that we will be headed to Level 10 CrossFit in Oroville on Saturday for a Filthy 50 Challenge, then a BBQ/Swim Party.  We will meet at the gym about 730am if you plan on going.  The warm-up starts at 9am and competition shortly thereafter.

DADS......

We all have them, but some are better than others.  I myself have been EXTREMELY fortunate to have had a great one.  I would not be half the man I am if it were not for him showing me the way.  The one that has set the example for me to live by.  

One of the greatest things I have learned from my dad is that a mans word and a handshake is all we should EVER need in this world.  Regardless of how many times I get screwed over by people, their legal documents, and their shady lawyers;  I will continue to believe in that ideal.  This is a big reason I love the CrossFit Nation.  A legion of CrossFitters that still hold true the belief that if you say it or shake on it, then it's as good as gold!!!

~Kevin

Since DAD was in town and it was his 72nd Birthday on Thursday, I put together a little WOD to honor him.  A HERO WOD in my eyes!

Thanks everyone for working so hard!

If it's worth having, then it's worth working for!
