CrossFit? What's CrossFit?

I thought since we have been asking for family and friend donation's for the CrossFit Charity Event on September 27th we should explain what it is we are doing. If you ever want to get into a 60 minute plus conversation with Chris just ask him about CrossFit. He has been doing the program for over a year now. He thinks, breathes and lives it. He is crabby when he has to miss his Workout of the Day. "Every day downloading my workout is like Christmas" - This is an actual Chris Mack quote. (Opposites apparently attract) The results are obvious by the above picture of him doing a workout. I have needed to get back in shape for awhile and the Charity Event for Prostate Cancer on the 27th was just the kick in the tush I needed (kinda literally since that area physically hurts right now from the above workout) As many of you know, 2 of my Grandparent's died of different forms of Cancer so I take raising money for the disease very seriously. If you would like to cheer us on or be entertained while we workout and you take pictures for posterity please come join us at The Human Race Sports in Orland Park at 9:00AM on Saturday September 27th. Who knows... you may actually want to partake in the workout.



If you are unable to come but would like to support please visit the donation site and support your favorite "Mack"

And for any of you Educational Types here is the actual definition of the workout program. CrossFit: Is the principal strength and conditioning program for many police academies and tactical operations teams, military special operations units, champion martial artists, and hundreds of other elite and professional athletes worldwide. The program delivers a fitness that is, by design, broad, general, and inclusive. The CrossFit specialty is not specializing. Combat, survival, many sports, and life reward this kind of fitness and, on average, punish the specialist.


Wish Me Luck!!
