Inspiration...tee shirts are in and my eyes are on the finish line!

Sometimes you feel a lull in your training...an empty feeling of "why am I doing this?" passes through your mind. If you can get past this, trust in yourself and keep going, I gaurantee something will pop up and put the wind back in your sails. This post is about inspiration. Messages like this inspire me...now I have more to be hopeful for...our tee shirts are in! You can now get involved in this fundraiser to honor Amanda and join the fight against cancer. 100% of the proceeds are going to skin cancer research in her name. The link is on the left.

"Hey Dave,

I just wanted to drop a line. I found your blog and saw it was dedicated to Amanda Miller and I continued to read. I became friends with Amanda shortly after she came to Crossfit Ventura and she was a great person and a good friend. I just wanted to say that as a friend of Amanda, I think that your blog truly inspirational. Thank you for raising awareness and keeping the memory of Amanda alive."

Preparing for Tahoe


On October 18th 2010 an epic battle will take place in Lake Tahoe, Ca. Team Again Faster will be going head to head with team Rogue in a clash of the titans. This is gonna be like the Auotobots vs. the Decepticons and I, Optimus Prime, will be battling against Megatron, Rob Orlando. Heather Bergeron, Star-Dust, will take on Kristin Clever, Iron-hide. James Hobart does not have a name yet but I am leaning towards Bumble Bee.
