The Filthy Fifty

Celebrate with me my friends.
For the first time in my crossfit experience, I’ve set a gym record. It was on Sunday and the workout is known as “The Filthy Fifty.” It was grueling, but great. Gym records go up on the white board in the gym where everyone can see your name and try [...]

The Eagles Concert
