WOD As many of you know I had a pretty significant injury last week while swinging around on a high bar. I managed to tear my right latissimus off the humerus. Its a very uncommon injury and it is one that is not commonly surgically treated, even though it would never heal on its own. I am ...

Hi Everyone-
Ditto to Dave and Justin's comment yesterday. (Sorry, this is going to be long...so get comfortable.)
I miss the ranch days too. So many people this weekend loved our HIPFIT Prebok shirt- "Prebok" on the front and "Aromas" on the back. The people that "got it" were so much fun to talk to- we reminisced about "the good 'ol days." I remember competing in the 2009 Regionals and 2009 Games at the ranch- and what great memories we all have. CFES showed up with a ton of athletes for the regionals, and we had only been open for about 6 months. We all wore our CFES shirts and everyone noticed us and we all did really well. I can remember running up the dirt hill to be met by 22 OHS at the top of the hill. The judges up there were saying, "another East Sac athlete! Go East Sac!"
Then the 2009 Games were awesome- going into the last event in the top 10. Crazy. Finishing in 9th place after having been open for only about 9 months was badass!
We hung out in the dirt- everyone under our tents. People from all over the world- walking around talking to one another. It was more than just the competition, it was about the community coming together- all in this tiny town of Aromas, CA. It was very grassroots and organic.
The feeling of the 2010 Games at the HDC was different- a lot different and a lot less dirty. There was no charm- no history. Our team, however, was awesome- Justin, Travis, Pat, Loren, Brooke, and me- we are like family- so competing with all of them is like fighting for your family against everyone else. Someone asked me what the "secret to being on the team is" and after seriously thinking about it, I have come to the conclusion that the secret for me was- since my teammates are like my siblings (except for the my teammate/husband!), I was willing to fight for them- to come in and grind it out with them every week, in our home, CFES- a place where everyone knew each other and everyone rooted for one another. A place where the top athletes and the newbies worked side-by-side, cheering one another on and were all held to the same standards. That made me want to fight for East Sac too- I knew everyone; had suffered with everyone and they were rooting for me; we were representing our home and everyone in it when we wore our East Sac shirts on Game Day. It wasn't about the event- it was about the whole community at home rooting for us. It was about fighting for my teammates, b/c I knew how hard they were working and I didn't want to let them down. It wasn't about sponsors or money. It wasn't about labels, freebies, or special treatment.
I had so much fun meeting people this weekend that were excited to talk about the Ranch and the origins of CF. Tommy Marquez from CrossFit Ranch was one of those people. He talked about how they may do an event at the Ranch b/c so many people miss it.
Then there were a few people that had to ask, "Can you explain Prebok to me?" That made me a little sad inside.

A HUGE THANK YOU to Justin, Travis, and Chris for letting us set up yesterday and supporting out new company!!! We are super excited! And a BIGGER thank you to everyone that bought stuff yesterday! We're glad you love it as much as we do. And remember- 1/2 of the designs were still at the printer- so you'll have lots more to choose from at the Sac Town Throdown. Can we dub it '12 STTD? Ha! That sounds like something I don't want to catch.
What is HIPFIT?
Rest Day I feel that I owe the gym an apology for Saturday morning. No, it's not for yelling at someone, throwing weights at someone, screaming profanities or being wasted, it's for confusing them. I promise, the last thing I wanted was for our members to think that they drove to Denio's or ...
AWESOME morning, Chris and Ari! That was such a great way to start the day! It was perfect. Thank you for all that you both did to make is so much fun! Happy Thanksgiving!
