Updates Galore!

Just a quick post to update folks on happenings, events, and goings-on. Fine, I admit it, I just really like the term "goings-on." Anyways, here's where things stand as of right now...


Capital City Open

John Filippini from South Baltimore CrossFit and I have been coordinating on setting up a USA Weightlifting meet inside the beltway. We decided to call it the "Capital City Open." John submitted the meet sanction form to USAW officials and we've discussed a few logistics thus far. As said before, it will be held at Balance Gym Kalorama on April 9th, 2011. We haven't nailed a time down just yet, but we plan to cap the event at 60 competitors, so be sure to get your application in early once we make it available.


The Gunfight: Honor Every Second

After some fine-tuning and help from my brother, the donation site for the Amanda Miller fundraiser is live. Donate here!

Please be sure to spread this link around to your friends, family, and co-workers. All proceeds go to the Melanoma Research Foundation. Eventually, I'll have more details on participation registration, scaling the workout, and so on. In the meantime, check out the awesome event announcement my brother put together:


We plan to have posters made to hang in the gym and advertise the event. All are encouraged to attend and participate, but doing the workout is totally optional. Regardless, any and all donations will be accepted. Watch the video below to see footage of Amanda from the 2009 CrossFit Games:
