We’ve got a spankin’ new website, courtesy of our man Nate! (Shown here, as he prepares to Hang Power Clean.)
For those of you who don’t know, Nate handles our web design and does all the behind-the-scenes work on our blog. He’s an absolute sweetheart and recently set a new deadlift PR of 330 lbs. We love you, Nate!
In other news, yesterday held many sweet moments, but two stand out:
1.) Mary’s huge, tired smile in the parking lot after the 5pm class. “I used the big girl bar — and 53lbs! It was really hard.” You go, Mary.
2.) Sue beat me again. Two more pounds on the bar and she still got one more round than me. Her achievements never cease to make me smile. Go, Sue.
Also, we’re headed to CA for the CrossFit Kids Cert, so Melissa and crew have the helm until Thursday. Go hard and go over to the CrossFit Affiliate Blog today and read about what people believe — it’s a great day over there too!
SCHEDULE ALERT: There is no noon or 5pm class today. Next week, there is no noon class on Mon or Wed and no 8:30am on Tuesday. Evening classes and early morning classes are unaffected. Check our Google schedule for more info. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Nate, you’ve outdone yourself! The new site looks so very cool…great work. There’s no one I’d rather have as my 6pm WOD partner than you my friend! You rock.
And as for Mary…you should know that you are a continual source of inspiration. You amaze me. You constantly but quietly push youself through your workouts, day in and day out, while so many other women your age are completely sedentary and already battling a variety of illnesses. I don’t know of any other women who can kick ass in the gym as hard as you do. You never settle and you never “phone it in”. What a great role model for Taylor; what a great role model for us all. You’re kinda my hero…

awesome Nate.

First time caller long time listener. Have to say, love the new site. Yesterday’s work out rocked! At a loss for words today, when I find them I’ll write again. Funny thing, I’m not usually at a loss for words, but today, I can’t really seem to get my thoughts together. I did have another, this I believe thought, and that is: “I believe that when I’m in my Rogue Do-Wins, I’m in a happy place.”

Another cool thing that happened yesterday was this. I, for some reason, wanted to do that workout by myself after the 6:00 class. However, Lis, Sue and Nate stuck around to hang out and cheer me on as I went through the longest 20 minutes of my life. Without you guys yelling “pick up that bar” I would have gotten about 3 less rounds than I did. How many times have you seen something like that at a Globo gym?? CFW kicks ass! And, N8, great site! I love it.

Thanks all. I just finished cleaning up most of the pages up on here, most notably the trainer pages and the our location pages. If you find anything wonky please let me know!
Otherwise, yup, what everyone else said!!! There was no way we were going to leave Kirk to that madness all alone – rumor has it if you do that wod alone you get the space madness and are never quite right in the head again. Heckuva job though, great pace and beauteous form throughout!

Nate-the new site looks great and so do you.
Sue-Thanks for all the kind words and support.I have to admit it did bring a tear to my eye. I would go look in the mirror right now and you will see another amazing woman.You have accomplished so much(weight loss,5k’s,triathlons)and I know with your strength and determination those pull-ups and push ups are not out of your grasp.You’re kinda my hero too.
