"The Angie"

Fighting Fire with Water (and fitness, of course)
Roger sent me this picture yesterday - he is a rookie firefighter with LA City - and he's obviously earning his keep. Roger trained with us for about 8 months prior to the academy to ensure he was physically ready. As a rookie, his station is keeping him pretty busy, but he's hoping to get back in to train with us again soon.

Roger S - firefighting

Today's Workout
"Double & Half Fight Gone Bad"
Complete Six, 2 minute 30 second rounds with 30 seconds between each round.
During each round, spend 30 seconds at each of 5 stations:
Wall Ball
Sumo Deadlift High Pull
Box Jump
Push Press
Row
Score one point for each rep (calories on the rower). Score is the total number of reps over all six rounds.

Roger's dedication and enthusiasm was always apparent when he was here. He would stay after class and do more, and sometimes that meant another class! So good to see that kind of determination pay off. Thanks for your service to the city, Roger.

Would love to hear updates from Jen and Dan, too.

Roger's so good he makes rainbows. I also think there's something to be said for having "arrived" in life when your name is printed on your bum. wink

My job gets gnarly - but it's never life or death. Kudos to Roger and all the other crossfitters who are out there protecting us from harm!!
