I thought the WOD would be swimming for time.

Sam, don't forget to let us know about the looting situation in philly and whether you will need to be rescued from your roof : )

Crap I really wanted to go to Yoga but I don't think me and the Mrs. will make it out with the hurricane... we'll make another decision tomorrow though. Stay dry and safe everyone!

Jason said...

We are currently TBD on classes for tomorrow. Please check the blog before coming to class. Yoga is also TBD. Stay safe and I will update tomorrow.

Chris that # is ridiculous!

No looting or raft rescues required in Philly so far! Hope everybody stays safe.

Looks like a little drizzle. Everything will run as scheduled.

Howard said...

Congrats Chris! That's some serious weight.

Is there any room left on the bar for you to go up or will you need to have some KOP X-Fit kids hang from the bar during the lift to increase the weight?

For anyone planning 12 pm yoga, the bridge was blocked off this morning at Lafayette on the Norristown side and at 23 in Bridgeport. Plan accordingly!

Nice job Chris!

Paging, Jay E., paging Jay E....please report to the box, STAT!

Jason Lyons said...

Both bridges are now closed so there is no way to get to the gym. As a result, we will be canceling the 2:30PM kids class. We are sorry for the inconvenience but sometimes mother nature wins.

I live a block and a half from the box. I walked over to the bridges about 30mins ago. There is flooding at Frosty Falls and the Home Decor place across the street and in some houses along the back of Front St. The river is supposed to peak at 2pm so I don't think it will get worse. Just thought I'd share...
