Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but have never been able to reach. Check your road and the nature of your battle. The world you desired can be won. It exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours. -Ayn Rand

Witnessing Awesomeness!!
So last night, (January 10, 2011), in front of his parents and many members (which was awesome to see the crossfit community come support), Coach Jesse, of Westlake CrossFit, completed 500 burpees in 50:32. WHOA!! Taking on such a task was crazy but awesome to watch. To show that kind of commitment and selflessness was humbling yet inspiring!! So I just wanted to give him a shout out! Now Jesse wasn't just doing this for fun.... He had a purpose, to raise $500 for his trip to India to spend time with orphaned children who enjoy CrossFit and will be gone for 10 days teaching these kids the CrossFit Method. AWESOME!!.. So good luck Jesse. I know you will represent Westlake and CrossFit as its supposed to be portrayed!!
