When dreams become reality

Having just completed nine weeks of intense firefighter training, Jennifer Simperman graduated from the Washington State Fire Training Academy this weekend. She's been working hard at CrossFit Eastside and on her own to prepare for the academy and for the work of a firefighter. We have been honored to be part of helping Jennifer follow her dreams.

Jen is following in the footsteps of fellow CFES athlete and firefighter Jenny Oltmann, a longtime veteran of Eastside Fire & Rescue.

It's like a fight gone bad

Twenty-four Seattle-area CrossFitters gathered to throw down at CrossFit Eastside for the Wounded Warrior Project and Athletes for a Cure annual fundraiser, FGB III.

Big thanks to all who participated, donated, spectated, supported, and hung out for some post-exertion feasting and relaxing.
