Guys this Sunday Kelly goes to Augusta Ironman to race in the name of a great charity. She said it best in her email to us and we support her!! So make a small sacrifice this week for the cause in her name. We are all proud of her! So go out and win the race Kelly! OK just finish!!
Hey guys...I just wanted to let you know something that I was doing... This Ironman 70.3 Augusta thing I am doing is in conjunction with a fundraiser for the Not For Sale Campaign. NFS is an organization that fights human trafficking. The program I am raising money for is to help get some of these rescued kids rehabilitation that incorporate physical activity in their programs. CrossFit people more than anyone understand how physical activity can improve health - both physical and mental and build confidence. Many of these kids were used as child soldiers, laborers, and sex slaves. Not For Sale is a fairly new organization with little bureaucracy - if at all - So every cent of the money raised actually goes to the intended goal of rehabilitating these kids.
Freedom is kind of a big deal... so is physical and mental health.... So I figured this would be the perfect organization for me to be a part of and to raise money for. Maybe someday when I can actually use my degree I can be more hands on with this stuff, right now all I can do is raise money. I have put together a blog where I am writing a little bit about my training (mainly for accountability) ...I have written a lot about CrossFit inception.
