Though I missed “Clovis” today due to Mommy duties (cub scout field trip), erectile I was thrilled to see so many people take part in what seemed like a very intimidating WOD. As we pulled into the parking lot to drop off a bike, information pills I was in awe of the amount of cars in the parking lot and people running, abortion biking, jumping around. The energy was high and smiles were everywhere. Our parking lot was as full as a shopping mall parking lot on Black Friday. Oh wait. It IS Black Friday. So on a day where most people decide to get up and troll the stores over 30 people decided to run 10 miles and do 150 burpee pullups. Amazing!  We are so proud of the growing, supportive community of CrossFit Oakdale. I wanted to share the pictures that were shared with me. If anyone else...Read more

I lived in Phoenix, website AZ as an elementary school kid.  We were very active in sports, site but I wouldn’t say we led an “active” or fitness lifestyle.  In 3rd or 4th grade, pills my best friend was a really fast kid, and his parents were “reformed” hippies.  Our families became close, and they started a sort of family tradition.  They would do a hike in the Phoenix area the day after Thanksgiving, to work off all the food.  I’m pretty sure we hiked Shadow Mountain one year and Camelback the next.  Generally these hikes took 2-4 hours.  I distinctly remember bitching at my parents for taking us on these hikes, but looking back, I don’t think they were too thrilled either.  They did it because they knew it was good for the kids, and it was good for them.   Quick story:  At the base of one of...Read more
