On this last day of 2013, CFSF would like to thank each and every one of our members for all the hard work they have put in and the good times we have all had doing it. Thanks for choosing CFSF.

Look ahead to this time next year, and set a few tangible goals. Then work with unwavering determination to reach them. We can't be bad ass mofos overnight. Moving from puppy toward firebreather takes a long time. Hard work, consistency in training, adequate rest, and recovery are required for mutation to occur.

There are no shortcuts.

Anchors and magnets.
Some of you will remember the anchor and magnet, but for some this is the first time. There are two basic types of people in the world: Anchors, and magnets.

Anchors, sometimes unwittingly, sometimes not, bring others down- sucking the positive energy right out of the room. They are the negative, pessimistic types that doubt everything and everyone.

Magnets, on the other hand, are the kind of people that lift everyone else up, either by their no-quit attitude, or the way they attack the workout of the day so aggressively. All or nothing.

CFSF is losing two very strong magnets. Derrick, and Erin Rice will be leaving within the next few days. Promoted, graduated, gone on to the next duty station. While we are excited for your new start in Kansas, we will be saddened by your absence.

Your enthusiasm, fuel, and friendship will be greatly missed. You are both the personification of the word TEAM... Ready to lead, ready to follow- never quit.

We know you'll make us proud when you get to your next Box. Thank you both for everything you have contributed to CFSF, you will always be welcomed back.

CFSF wishes everyone a very happy and safe New Year filled with PR's that finds us missing the pot holes, and hitting all the green lights of life. Thanks for a great 2013.

We look forward to 2014 with eager apprehension, after all- if your workouts don't scare you a bit you aren't training hard enough.

See you on the 3rd.

CFSF
