I knew that photo was coming but i'm still unamused about it.
At least no one can argue I wasn't giving it 110%

About tonight's meeting: I sent an email to CoachP AT crossfitnyc DOT com, and got the automatic "thank you for your interest" reply. Don't know if that means he'll get it or not. Should I resend it to another address?

Ewen, sorry about that. You can most definitely email Mike at:
mike AT crossfitnyc DOT com
You won't have any trouble with that address because I use it to email him all the time.
I'll fix the references to that on the blog as well, thank you.

Think we could get these guys to design our new space? "CrossFit: Reversible Destiny" has a nice ring to it.
