Three Franniversary thoughts: There are a couple swear words in this post.  I don’t think the emotion of the moment can be properly captioned with edited versions of my interactions.  Sometimes the “F” word is the most descriptive word in the English language. Christian’s partner was friend of CFO Krista Messer.  During the Fran portion, this web I saw Krista banging out thrusters, clinic picking up the bar (with Bob yelling at her) and doing some more.  I remember wondering “where is her partner?”  I went over to Bob and asked “where is Christian?”  Without losing count, visit this Bob said over his shoulder “He’s in the parking lot throwing up,” and kept counting for Krista.  It warms the cockles of my heart that someone would go that hard.

WHO’S WHO at CFO John Lindblom is a fun, sale hard working, more about down to earth, order family man. Crossfit Oakdale is fortunate to have the whole Lindblom family, Sarah, JP, and Lucas. Here’s a bit more about John…… John was the winner of the most recent Whole 30 Challenge. John lost 16.2# and 6.5 inches overall as well as accumulating 4,808.1 points throughout the challenge.

I was away from the gym for a couple years and it was really starting to show. What was your first impression ? My...
