AMRAP 7 Miuntes:

Topher Stephenson! TA-DAH!!! I can sing as well as heal!
Soheil Payvandi, A Hand Surgeon Specialist and Runner Up to sexiest man alive in People Magazine!
Calvin Wang and Patrick Harty, both take medicine and CrossFit very seriously.
We very proud of our members as athletes around here... but it is nice to take the time to recognize some of the amazing accomplishments done outside of CrossFit East Sac as well. I guarantee everyone of these Physicians are excellent at there job. I know this by the effort they put in to there training. Everyone one of them is a technician at training. I think it is safe to say... We all want a Doctor that only knows how to function at 100%. Good Job guys and glad to have you here.
I suppose there is a metaphorical lesson in this post. something to do with taking our medicine. Anyway congrats guys on making a contribution. I think we have some nurses at CFES as well. Congrats to you also.

On a completely unrelated note: Josh Stonier look-alike update.
Check out p7 of todays Sac Bee. Macy's ad. top left. Josh look-alike modeling a sweater! Cool, huh? Well it sort of looks like Josh, only with white hair. Middle aged Josh.
OK, back to work.

What is the purpose of this post? Are we bragging that Dr's WOD here or are we just fluffing their hogans?

Pat's pic looks like a HS grad pic, but I can't tell if Calvin looks older or younger. Definitely dig the buz look better Cal.

Toph looks like the Jesus of doc's, and Soheil looks like he was gonna try and smile but just couldn't quite crack it.

We also have a lot of people who arent doctors but play doctor if given half the chance.
We have a large contingent of well educated and intelligent professionals who realize that 1) a commitment to health/exercise is necessary to maintain your ability to perform in your everyday life and to make sure that your life is long and enjoyable and 2) some of those people have the ability to concentrate and translate that professional expertise into athletic performance, while others simply suffer well.

Justin: fluffing their hogans? What exactly does that mean?
Posted by: Scott | February 07, 2012 at 12:59 PM
Can we please get someone to doctor Chris' writing? (should have posted this anonymously! :))

Lene - every time you use the word 'there' when you mean 'their,' God kills a kitten (a category of which Betsy is included.) Don't be a victim.

If God killed a kitten for each of the grammar sins committed on the blog, there would be no cats.
Team Update for the Open, we have 48 folks signed up (tho that may be off a little, I dont see Travis as an athlete for the Team, so others may be missing too).

I'm pretty sure that Jen R., our resident English teacher, dies a tiny death every morning when she reads the blog.

for the love of god, Lene...
Posted by: Pat H. | February 07, 2012 at 02:28 PM
Jen R is an English teacher? hey that's good know!
Chris: I didn't know Betsy was a kitten. By the way, do you know what "fluffing a hogan" means?

Oh, for those who logged into the blog at about 5 am, this is not what was originally posted. Originally, my second favorite internet video of the year was front and center:

Justin -- how's it looking for # of volunteers for Saturday?
Posted by: J P Carey | February 07, 2012 at 05:07 PM
Olga- that was brilliant. Gotta love a Spies Like Us reference when you can get one.
Posted by: Matt P | February 07, 2012 at 05:34 PM
Actually, grammatical transgressions mean full employment for me. People read blogs and cry out, "The barbarians are at the gates--hire more English teachers!!!"
Posted by: Jennifer R. | February 07, 2012 at 08:59 PM
I imagine she at least cringes a bit when reading my posts...considering she was MY english teacher. Its probably really your fault whenever I make gramatical (hey there's one now) errors, "Ms. Reynaga."
I just realized that I'll often let a noticed error go and reference that I made a mistake...that way I never have to move the position of my hand.
Posted by: Blake | February 07, 2012 at 09:17 PM
Blake, you made a spelling error, not a grammatical one. ;) Thanks for all the help with the squat cleans today..I'll beat that 125# PR next time, though! ;)

Nothing like a little laughter to end the day. Now you know why I like the 9:00am class.
By the way. Lose the new two way window/mirror thingy! It's creepy.

The long run should be few and far between even if you are one of the silly few who still wants to get a PR on your marathon and qualify for Boston again.
