Old Friend
April 28, 2010

Our old friend and CF Ethos trainer Eric Olsen dropped us an email over the past week.  For those of you who don't know, Eric Olsen is a Marine and is currently deployed overseas.  He sends his best wishes to the crew and says he cant wait to get back in the gym. We at Ethos thought it might be nice to put together a little care package for him. In his email he mentioned a few things that are impossible to get a hold of over there and also  some comforts of home items. We should shoot to have all items packed and ready to ship by the end of next week, May 7th. 

Items that he mentioned included but should not be limited to:

  • Toothpaste
  • Razors/shavers
  • Almonds/Pistachios
  • Athletic Tape
  • News/Photos from the box

If you are interested in donating any items, bring them by the gym before May 7th. Feel free to bring other items other than those that are listed. Eric is a great trainer and also a great friend so lets show him some support and send a great care package. For any other questions or comments contact Amy Martinez at  amymartinez1@me.com

Destroyed from 3 days in Vegas. These first sessions back are gonna be brutal. And if you ever have a chance to go to the Hard Rock pool on a Sunday for the Rehab party, it's wild. You gotta see it to believe it.

On shift today. Arranging for my meat pick-up. Hope all is well. Luke.

Doland, glad to see you on the blog! We love having our members interact on the site. In regards to the gloves, no. However if you bring in a roll of tape I will show you how to tape your hands to protect them.

I've improved on my rope climbs.  That or my vertical leap has increased.  Probably a little of both.
