Friday Coffee: 28 Apr 2017

A day of major purchases. I am coming to you live from a footrest, as the chair I used has broken. Chair is perhaps a grandiose term for it. Alas, in the words of Jaeger Kovich: "She gone."

The First Holes

An Open Letter to All Jan-row-ary Participants
Dear Jan-row-ary Participant, Welcome back to CrossFit! It certainly has been a long month of rowing. I'll bet not one of you conceived the idea that rowing 5k, 10k, or even the vaunted half-marathon 20k was within your bailiwick; but alas, you did it! In fact, I recently read the collective distance you rowers journeyed... Continue Reading →
