Hey guys! Gym’s gonna be closed closed on Wednesday. We’ll do our tribute workout on Thursday (369th Hellfighters WOD) and then celebrate the beginning of summer on Friday with the SWOLESTICE!! HAhahah 🙂 For those that don’t know, “SWOLE” is past tense for swollen, which morphs this simple descriptor into an infinitive adjective, rather than transitive. “The state of being swollen” if you will, which is nearly as much a mindset as a physical reality.
I hope everyone had a great Father’s Day (at least minorly comparable to Mother’s Day) and that if your Dad is gone now you don’t miss him too badly.
Heads up about the 4th of July: We’re gonna do a WOD + BBQ like we did for Murph, and the close the rest of the week like we do for Thanksgiving. I hope you can get out with your families and go somewhere fun, take a long weekend and enjoy it. School’s out, you’ve got the PTO, so dust off that bike, or paddle board, or pop-up camper and hit the nature! If that’s not your style, go book a room at Tulalip and smash the slot machines until the cows come home.
Lastly! I forget to bring this up all the time: if you want to pay for CrossFit with your HSA/FSA account instead of your income that’s already been taxed, only to pay more sales tax, so that I can pay B&O tax on your now thrice taxed dollar, check out TrueMed. I’ve got flyers on the front desk at Lynnwood, and I can send you the link in a minute. The gym doesn’t get a kick back or anything, it’s just a way to save you guys some money, stick it to the man, and make becoming and being fit a little bit easier.
