FGB / BBQ pics

Last Friday we had our annual FGB / End of Summer BBQ and it gets better every year! Thanks to everyone who came out to work and eat!

Thank you Sean for running 6 of the 8 classes that day -- things went really smoothly! And thanks Wen for wearing your HOT shorts!

As promised Dave BBQ'ing in his lederhosen!

Jim! A huge thank you for all the meat and bringing out your grill!

You guys bring the best food! Thanks for the spread!

The Bike Squat and the Cascades

Annually a group of friends bike over the North Cascades highway. This year they decided to stop and overhead squat their bikes for some added variety. Tracy would like you to note that it's not trivial 'squatting in bike shoes! Not to mention after riding up that damn pass in the HEAT, after a night of beer hydration (of course, i could have abstained, but what fun would that be?)'

Wonderwoman Shawna! And the New Edie!

Shawna and David just had their first child and daughter, Edie Harper Kitzman on August 1st. Congratulations and welcome Edie!

Shawna worked out at Level 4 during her entire pregnancy. She was 2 weeks overdue and still doing CrossFit to try to induce labor! She said it didn't work but she thinks she might have made Andy and Scott a little anxious. Andy asked her "Please do not go into labor during my class." She obliged.

Shawna 8 months pregnant

STP and slick jerseys!

Jason and Shannon got together with friends last month and rode STP (Seattle to Portland). They covered 130 miles the first day to Vader and cruised 70 the second day into Portland. Shannon had some 'totally fresh' jersey's done up for the team -- notice the logo on their sleeves!

Welcome to the World Violet!

Congratulations to Ross and Val McKillop on the birth of their first child and daughter, Violet Elizabeth McKillop! Violet and Val are doing great and Ross has been able to make it into the gym once since Violet's birth 2 weeks ago - impressive!! We can't wait to meet Violet!

Purtty PlyoBoxes!

Dave with alot of help from Sean and some very appreciated work from Shane and Tom made up these incredibly spiffy plyoboxes for the gym. Come jump with us!

Sean and Dave putting in the time.

Try not to sacrifice your shins when jumping like Jason here. On the otherhand, CrossFit war wounds are good conversation pieces!
