Coaches’ Notes:

Coaches Notes:

Not much to report today…except for the fact that you guys kick ass!

It takes discipline, skill, courage and on and on to compete.  But, it takes more of all of those when you are competing outside of your box and when you are separated from certain people on your team due to multiple competition locations.

I am impressed what you guys are doing and am of course, very proud.  And, not just proud of those who placed or did particularly well, but proud of everyone…proud of the team..proud of our passionate coaches.  ‘Chargers never seem to disappoint (that was easier than writing out super and turbo, yet, I’ve written even more just by writing this).

I’ll just quickly give some quick shout outs for those who competed in the 2014 Festivus Games.  But, if I miss you, it’s only because this is off of the top of my head from chatting with the coaches…

Brief Notables in no particular order:

• Everett P- 1st place men’s beginner (he’s shown the drive and desire to make it happen since day 1
• Mark G- 4th place WOD 1
• John Groce-225 Clean pr
• Lefagus W- 200 Clean pr
• Jay A-  1st place in the 1K row
• Allison O- competed in her first competition with an excellent display of heart and solid movement through out all 4 WOD’s.
• Danielle Wimlish- Was rockin’ 185 clean attempts from the power position.  Didn’t get full lock out, but come on…this girl is something else!
• Katie Teevan- Pr’d her 1k row and then did a PERFECT clean at 100lbs.
• Andrew Angelucci-  got a 50lb clean pr!  That’s rediculous!  I think it was 255lbs or 265lbs (Andrew tell us the exact amount on the FB group page)

These are just some of the things that went down.  Things that make me and the coaches equally as proud are people like Bob Clements powering through an AMRAP and then being right there to cheer everyone on and keep them fired up.  This IS a team sport!  

Then we have David G who kills it every time, Rey R. who is nailing the dubs that have been his nemesis until now  and Jen H. (just watched a great vid of her cleaning) who always put it on the line and don’t miss a chance to compete.  I know I am missing some of you, but we’ll do a full write up with more detail.  But, again…gratitude and congrats goes out to not only the coaches, but all of the staff member as well.  

Unfortunately, there is also a bit of sad news I have to share with you today…one of our CrossFit Supercharged OG’s, master motivator, the guy you love to train and train with, Ricardo “Ricky” Ospino, will be moving to New York.   Ricky is a special type of person.  He has goals.  He has a vision and when he makes an action plan, he goes full steam ahead.  While we are excited for him and for his next venture in life (in which we have no doubts he will be successful at), boy is it tough to say good bye to such an awesome teammate.

Ricky, you will always be considered a part of our family and don’t think we don’t expect you to visit often.  You aren’t that far away.  Seriously though, we wish him the best and want to express our gratitude for being the kind of CrossFitter coaches want to coach, the type of CrossFitter that newbies want to emulate and the type of CrossFitter who has the ability to always put a smile on your face.

We will miss you brother!
