We did it again! The annual Big Climb for Leukemia up the 1,311 steps of the Columbia Tower was yesterday, and we had a team of 24 Eastside CrossFitters participating. And, this year, we had another 25 of our friends from Rainier CrossFit, Mt. Baker CrossFit, and CrossFit Westside joining in the fun. Forty-nine CrossFitters are hard to miss, even in a big crowd!

Heaton set a goal to pull 400 pounds before he turned 50. He got it done three weeks before his birthday. Strong work, Heat. First, a reminder that the new evening class schedule starts Tues 3/13. That’s TONIGHT. Perfect timing, what with another hour of daylight in the evening and all.
Tuesdays & Thursdays:
5:30 Elements
6:30 Firebreathers class
MWF stays the same: 6pm class.
Second, the Big Climb is coming up this Sunday, 3/18. You can still join the team, right up until the day of the event, if you’re just that noncommittal. All the info you need–and more–is at http://www.crossfiteastside.com/bigclimb.
