We started off the 4th with a Hero WOD at CFP! We had a great group that morning, 19 people!! We did the Hero WOD Morrison. Hero WODs are named for fallen soldiers, police, fire & medics. We thought it was a great way to start July 4th!
4th of July is seriously one of my favorite holidays!! It ranks right up there with Christmas & Thanksgiving {& my birthday, which is not in fact a holiday, but I prefer celebrating as if it was!}! About a week out we still didn't have plans & a new box member/friend, Lauren, invited us over to her and her husband's neighborhood pool & house for some holiday fun!
And fun was definitely had by all! I didn't take a lot of pictures, but there was sun {and rain}, food, friends, drinks, laughing, new friends, & lots of fireworks!! I mean LOTS! Lauren's husband Rich is a bit of a firework enthusiast! Let's just say that when there was a buy 1 get 2 firework sale around Memorial Day, Rich stocked up! We had an awesome private show that did not disappoint!!
Just a little CrossFit bonding with Tom & Warren!
We even convinced Lauren's husband Rich to come try CF out :) {Some people are so skeptical ;)} We have a good little community going on at the box! It's really one of the best parts of CrossFit!! I'm loving making new friends & how encouraging and supportive everyone is!
Speaking of the great CrossFit community, last weekend was CrossFit for Hope. Hope is a fundraiser {and a workout - read more here} for St. Jude's Children's Hospital. The Charlotte edition is actually this weekend at CrossFit Steele Creek. Brandon & Warren are in the 12 o'clock heat and we're really excited to be apart of it!
This is sort of the first CF event where we can put a face with the CFP name since we're the newest box in town! We're getting a group together to go cheer Warren & Brandon on, it should be really fun!!
Happy almost Friday friends!!
