Warrior Dad Saturday

June 20th, 2010, by

Saturday was an all-around awesome day. We started our morning at the Fort by taking a group picture of our Dads squatting their kids. The picture turned out GREAT! Happy Father's Day!

After the picture, we had a super fun Team Saturday event. You kids got to run, box jump, kettle bell swing, push-up and goblet squat until our champions were crowned! The weather was perfect, so I hope you all enjoyed your extra tanning.

As a special surprise, Trish stopped by with the new babies, so we all got to smooch a baby before the workout. Don't babies make everything better? :-)

Zachamole and Chris T smile pretty for the camera!

Next up on the agenda was the Warrior Dash. As a "note to self" we will definitely be arriving a little earlier next year, as it took about 45 minutes from the time you got into the parking lot to get checked in for the race. Either way, it was an absolute blast. We saw some CrossFit friends from Milwaukee, as well as Bloomington Normal - it's always nice to run into CrossFitters! I always know which ones are CrossFitters....because they're the ones doing handstands in the mud. :-)

    Warrior Dash was a blast. Crossfitters are an awesome bunch. I wore my "I Am Crossfit" t-shirt and was pleasantly greeted by other crossfitters around the country.. I was even cheered through the mud pit under the barbed wire... it was nice to hear people yelling. "go crossfit!:"

  • Robert, if you are up this way for any excuse, let me know, we'd love to have you hit the Fort with us.

  • Again, good to see you and meet your wife. Rob did the Canada trip with us last year and he and I took an unexpected swim in the middle of the lake with all our gear and canoe.
