Great session guys. We had a visit from Cole, an affiliate owner from Lincoln, Nebraska in town for some training. He has some great ideas that they have incorporated in their box, and we welcome him to ours. He brings great fuel.

Good jumps Kat! Outstanding ability to remain upright when I could not. My demonstration was definitely NOT the way to jump on the box... Keep up the good work, and keep those ankles/calves comfortable by continued mobility and flexibility training.

Thanks for all the terrific efforts. Thanks for the fun, and the fuel.

If...

If you can keep your head when all about you   
    Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,   
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
    But make allowance for their doubting too;   
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
    Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,
    And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;   
    If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;   
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
    And treat those two impostors just the same;   
If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken
    Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
    And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
    And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
    And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
    To serve your turn long after they are gone,   
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
    Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,   
    Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
    If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
    With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,   
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,   
    And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!

The Aftermath...

The 11th annual CFSF St. Patrick's Day rite of passage, otherwise known as Beer, Burgers, and Burpees, was a total blast. Although nobody got this beast as prescribed, many beers and burgers met their demise nonetheless.

Finish times varied from just under 50 minutes to a whopping 94 minutes total time. Most people were getting 25 Burpees (+/-) in 2:30 minutes, however, allowing plenty of time for full "recovery" between rounds, increased time impressively. The "work" clock was thrown out the window today, landing in the street, it was then run over by a car and destroyed.

Thanks for another great day at CFSF. Thanks for the fuel, and the fun. See you next year, BBB!

On time, on target. NEVER quit.
