CF Ethos...
This weekend CF Ethos hosted the Southwest Master's Regional Competition and our Affiliate Team competed among 70+ tri-state affiliates UC Irvine. We are extremely proud of our athletes who represented in amazing fashion! Being around the training sessions, you know the Ethos athletes trained very hard and sacrificed to compete at this high level event. Thank you to everyone who participated in the mutli-WOD training sessions to help prepare the team, and who made it to the event site to cheer live. Last but no least, many thanks to the supporters who watched online and screamed at your screen "GO!" to encorage the Ethos affiliate team from afar! Be sure to check out the archived videos at live.crossfit.com to review all the amazing action from the weekend.
I think the Ethos crew has staked a claim to polka dots and lime...we mean "Ethos" green.

Although I couldn't watch you guys in person...I did from the archived ....and you all looked great!.....check out the Saturday archived time slot of 17:44-18:21....first 11 mins is Crossfit Ethos doing the pull ups! Proud of you guys!
What a great time that was this weekend. For those of you not on Facebook, here is a link to watch Phil, Jon, Erika, and Emily doing the final WOD:
Wow! This weekend was great motivation! The team as a whole did amazing! Great job!
Erica.. I don't know why you were PRETENDING you couldn't do ring dips.. you hammered those out!
6am WOD was rough.. but I survived. 70lb hang clean ( that is my PR so far) and knee push-ups (working on mastering regular without dying)
It always feels good when you finish and everyday is like a new accomplishment of pushing yourself to your limit.
Thank you to all of those who captured the great action at this weekends events!
It was a great weekend! Very motivating to watch everyone come together and compete! Our team represented Ethos well and gave an outstanding effort!
You guys were awesome. It was a great weekend watching you compete! You should be proud of your accomplishment, I know I am! Thanks for a wonderful Mother's Day.
Man, what a weekend. I have so many moments and images burned into my memory...
- Erica pumping out those ring dips and gaining confidence with each rep
- The look on Vanessa's face as she came back from the thrusters asking "Is there any more running?" before banging out the ring dips
- Watching Emily run like a thoroughbred down the back stretch of the track and everyone going, "Oooooo..."
- Watching Brian and Erica open up that monster lead down the back stretch of lap #2
- Black Jon cranking out THAT ONE set of double unders
- That delicious burrito
- How heavy that damn tire was
- Knowing just how close I was to dropping that log
- How in awe I was watching Erica and Emily flip that tire when Black Jon and I were gassed
- How grateful I felt seeing all our supporters and reading all the well wishes online on FB and our blog.
Thanks again, everyone.
