CrossFit Eastside level-1 certification Bottom-to-bottom Tabata squats
It was an amazing weekend. Northwest-area firefighters collected at CrossFit Eastside to attend a level-1 CrossFit certification seminar. Over two days, the staff of trainers from around the country taught 39 people the fundamentals of CrossFit and had them looking great by the end of the weekend. Happy to have you all in the house!

CrossFit strongman bus pull
Why pull a bus? One, because it’s fun to try. Two, because it tests you. Three, because it’s for a great cause, done with a strong community.

The great local CrossFit community gathered for Rainier CrossFit’s third annual “Rainier’s Strongest Man and Woman” event. They walked heavily weighted yokes down a course, deadlifted a giant log, pulled the big red double-decker bus, pressed a variety of heavy things overhead, and, Atlas-like, hoisted weighty stones up onto platforms. CFES had just one entrant this year (strong work, Jeralee!), but we were out in force as spectators and supporters, as always.

Two of our Seattle-area CrossFitters, Jeralee Anderson and Justin Clark, are on their way to this weekend’s 2008 CrossFit Games in Aromas, California.

J & J,

You both have worked hard become stronger, fitter, and more capable than when you started your journey to the Games. Approach your events this weekend like all your training sessions up to this point: embrace the unknown and the difficult and trust yourself. Dream big, learn as much as you can, and, above all, enjoy the experience.

We have had the pleasure of coaching your growth over the last weeks and months. Thank you for letting us all be part of chasing your goals and ambitions.

Sincerely,
Your CFES fan club
