JZuck said...

Congrats Mike! She looks adorable! Just remember, Crossfit KOP is a certified Crossfit Kids Affiliate. Do you think it is tooo early for her to start Aimee?

Jason Lyons said...

congrats mike!


everyone needs to remember that crossfit is constantly varied and we need to continually focus on expanding our confort zone. at times that may mean running in the cold, the rain, the snow. just because it may rain, we cannot think we won't do something.

Congratulations Mike and Gina!

Aimee Lyons said...

Jon- Never too early right? Well...maybe we will let Mary Kate get acclimated to the world for 3 years before we start her in the CrossFit Kids preschool class.

Jen S.- See you tonight, rain or shine!

Nicole- Seriously :-)

as many of you have found out. the message i left before was not intended to be mean in any way. it was intended to show you that you never really know what you are going to get when you show up.

peace and love jen s. lol.

Thanks everyone for the well wishes. My wife was touched by the response from the Crossfit KOP gang. I told her, "This is not some average gym were everyone is just an anonymous member. This is really a family." I am already working out Mary Kate's arms and legs getting her ready for when she can do Crossfit Kids WODs. I will be back to the box tomorrow. Thanks again, you are the best.
Mike, Gina and Mary Kate

Laura Pappas said...

Congrats Mike, Gina, and Welcome Mary Kate. I love the picture and that she's representing crossfit kop already!
Great work on FRAN today guys, I did a warm up and the 13,12,11...1 Burpee/Push Up away WOD with a sad time of 12:11, and it was painful the whole way. I can't imagine what thrusters would have felt like tonight!

Ray said...

Aw man, I missed Fran again! However, my body is saying, "Thank God you simple ass."

Maybe next time Fran.

Aimee Lyons said...

A couple of things...Paul if you ever don't eat again I'm gonna..._______!

Joe and Sam- If you can get that kip down you will both be unstoppable!

Doug- Way to rock that butterfly...no stopping next time on the Thrusters! I know your love affair with thrusters though!

Nikki- Way to kip girl!

Nicole- Get rid of that dental floss next WOD!

Chris-way to work through to the end!

Curin and Jen B.-Glad you got meet one of our leading ladies!

Randi- Welcome to our family, it's a little colder up north than in FLA...but you will adjust! It's always warm after about a minute into a WOD!

To everyone else who missed FRAN do to their dislike of running...hummmm!! Maybe next time you will come, rain or shine/met-con or strength? And remember Open gym this Thursday from 5:00 to 6:30.

You're welcome Paul! I'm glad I could help!
