Labor Day WOD, Anyone?

Sometimes you see stuff that is just too cool and inspiring to keep to yourself.

I just “overheard” something between my friend Merle Mckenzie and one of his athletes from CrossFit Relentless, Brenda.

Merle posted two pics on Facebook with this message:

“Brenda I love you for what you have done to inspire women and men to change their lives. You are without a doubt 100% CrossFit and there is no finer example of what CrossFit and determination can do for someone.”

Here are the pics:

BRENDA AFTER CrossFit!

The “After” pic above is from this morning – Labor Day 2010. Merle and a bunch of his athletes decided to “work” this morning, so Merle took a bunch of rowers and kettlebells down to the Farmington, CT Reservoir for a little Labor Day WOD. AWESOME STUFF!

Keep doing what you’re doing BOTH OF YOU! You BOTH inspire me and you both ROCK!

It’s an overused word, but that really is awesome!
Congrats on all the hard work, and being able to see the results!

Thanks Adam! I worked out with you at Relentless before! You helped me with my KB swing! Thanks for the recognition! Crossfit and the Paleo diet have worked for me! Life changing to say the least. I started at the end of October and lost all the weight in about 5 months not to mention gaining quite a bit of muscle. Nothing drastic just consistent with my diet and Crossfit 5 days a week. While most people are falling apart as they approach 40, my husband and I are as fit or fitter than we were at 20! You really couldn’t ask for more in a fitness program!
