I can’t even put into words what it felt like this morning at the gym…magical maybe
As Steve said the energy levels were maxed out especially the last minute of every heat….and for Johanna and Dan to show up and cheer US on man I’m blessed to be a part of this community.

Not to sound like a complete nerd, but I wanted to say how awesome the open was and thank everyone. I’ve only been coming to the box for about two months and I’m so glad I started. Everyone has made me feel really welcome and like I’ve been working out here for years. I wasn’t even going to do the open cause I didn’t think I was “ready”. Thank you Scott for convincing me to join the WOD Squad and being a great Captain. Thanks Erin for letting me know what a great place Salus is. Thank you to everyone who cheered me on and pushed me when I didn’t think I could do another rep. And thank you Gino and Angela for having such a great place to come work out at with such great people. Everyone did so awesome these past 5 weeks. I enjoyed cheering for all of you as much as I enjoyed pushing myself in the workouts. Alright, sorry for being so sappy, I’m done now.
