Champions


"In the end, we're all just trying to improve our bodies and our minds. We want to be an example to others, pass on our knowledge and experiences. Every true CrossFitter is the same. We are all striving to improve our physical self so our mental and spiritual self can thrive. Life is worth living fully and abundantly.

We were put here to be beacons of life, not to waddle around the mall with two ice cream cones in our hands, sucking in air-conditioned air while the breeze blows wonderfully through the trees just beyond the walls. This is why I CrossFit! To get out and get fit. To go to the Games, smell the dust, feel the pain, and live the victory.

….CrossFit is really, really FUN. I don't mean roller-coaster fun, or family-day-at-the-movies fun. It's the kind of fun you have in competitive sports. The thrill of victory. It's fun knowing you gave it your all, even if your all wasn't a mind-blowing Fran time."

Bob Guere, CrossFit California City

A big Boo Yah to our two teams who competed this weekend. They both exemplify what it means to be CrossFitters as so aptly put in the quote above.
