Rest Day on Rest Week

Welcome Steve and Beth to CrossFit! Looking forward to seeing you in class next week.

Alright Ken...watch your head on the Kip!
Gretchen...a day at the Beach?
Greetings (From Riga) and hope you all are doing great. Gretchen and I recently had a chance to do an impromptu beach workout, albeit the sea was nowhere to be found. We stopped at a ship graveyard in the Aral Sea in Kazakhstan - crazy place as the sea has receded 120km from the original shoreline thanks to the Soviets who diverted the Syr Darya river to boost cotton production. Ships can still be found rusting on the floor of the seabed, and I was lucky enough to find a pullup bar (and we had our shirts with us as you'll note!). (Doug, "of course..you guys get 2 rounds off when you come in July for rockin' the Sandbox shirts!")
I was consistently working out until about February, then my travel schedule squashed everything. I don't think I need to substitute the term 'Crossfat' for Crossfit just yet, but much looking forward to whipping myself back into shape.
We continue to follow your updates on the blog.
Best,
Ken
