Congratulations Justin & Joanne!
Congrats Justin and Joanne!
Also, Donnna and I wanted to say thanks for the shout out yesterday on the blog and for people’s kind words about our engagement! If it wasn’t for Crossfit, we most likely wouldn’t have met, so we definitely appreciate it all!! Thanks again!!
Congrats, indeed, my friend. I don’t think I could have matched you guys any better myself… Speaking of which, I would just like to point out that were it not for my incessant nagging (I think I tried to get her to come to at least 6 Beginner classes before she finally accepted the invite…) Donna would not be a member of the CF community. I also gave you the highest recommendation possible when Donna asked me for some feedback on ‘JR’. (Which was tough for me to do, given that you went to Notre Dame, so you must be the real deal)!
I’m not saying I need to sit at the head table at the wedding, but you know, I think a table with a good view (and some hot single chicks?!?!) is definitely in order for your man. Congrats, brother.
That’s great, bro. Congrats again…
Good debate question. What recent (within the last 10 years) sports moments would/should belong in this video? Things like Blake Griffin’s dunks, or the Celtics were great plays, but iconic moments/people? Not really. Messi, Bolt, and Phelps definitely belong in this video. Donovan’s game winning goal in the last World Cup? Tyree’s catch in the Super Bowl against the Pats? The removal of the Joe Pa statue? Red Sox winning a World Series?

Thanks, Bennett! just hope i passed the test
. must say, the class made me realize just how good the coaching/ guidance [on basically EVERY movement] is at CFH…awesome staff. thanks to all.
Sometimes I get withdrawal symptoms from going too long without holding a barbell in my hands.
Congrats to you both on your accomplishment…
