Mather Mud Run

2008-09-30T14:07:00.000-07:00

Although we couldn't repeat as team champions because of injuries, Dene and I went and represented CrossFit Napa. We had a great time and ran a fun race while enjoying a great mud run put on by my friend DI Carson from Basic Training www.dropandgiveme20.com Hopefully, next year we can put our team back together and give the new team champions a run for their money. Dion

CrossFit Napa hill running ladies

2008-07-21T06:24:00.000-07:00

Hill running is not for the faint of heart! You ladies attacked these hills with energy and enthusiasm and that's what hardcore training is all about! Keep up this great attitude and all of your fitness goals will be achieved.

More pics from the picnic

2008-06-09T09:12:00.000-07:00

Warm weather and great conversation. What more can you ask for?

Thanks everyone for all the wonderful healthy food and warm friendships.

I am so glad to hear that most of you were pretty sore after playing Hooverball. Having fun and getting a great workout is what we are all about here at CrossFit Napa.

Annual CrossFit Napa Picnic

2008-06-02T08:19:00.000-07:00

Hey Marty! Thanks for representing CrossFit Napa at the 10k race and still make it up for the picnic!

Everyone having a great time playing Hoover Ball.

I couldn't keep our mascot from having a good time too! He loved the kyack ride and really enjoyed watching everyone eat and be merry.
Thank you everyone for coming out and making this a very wonderful and enjoyable picnic. I really enjoyed watching everyone interact and engage each other in warm and friendly conversation. That makes me very happy because that was my main objective for putting this all together. I want us to be more than just a workout group! So thank you again everyone for being such a great group of hardworking and friendly people. Dion

Building friendships

2008-05-21T09:53:00.000-07:00

One of the things that I loved most about CrossFit when I first did my first WOD at CrossFit San Diego, were the frienships and great bonding amongst the participants. This sat well with me and encouraged me to continue this friendly trend. Last year when I took a trip to Quantico Virginia, I had the wonderful opportunity to have met a marine captain who engaged me in conversation about CrossFit. He too enjoyed Crossfit workouts and was in the process of getting certified. We stayed in contact through out this past year and just recently exchanged t-shirts. Thanks Jose for the shirt and I will continue to wear CrossFit Quantico colors with great pride. Dion

I am back!

2008-05-06T16:20:00.000-07:00

I am back from my Seal Adventure in Virginia Beach and I would like to say that was the toughest 24 hour workout I have ever experienced. I only completed 1/5 of what the Seals go through in Hell Week and that was very difficult. I have so much respect for everyone who has endured Navy Seal Hell Week and I my hat is off to anyone who has earned the right to wear the Trident!

Another fun day

2008-05-01T12:25:00.000-07:00

Thanks everyone for all your energy and hardwork. You all are a great group!

Staying busy

2008-04-21T09:26:00.000-07:00

Thanks everyone for coming out and working out. I see some good things happening so let's keep up the intensity and working out hard.

Hill sprints are great for building strong and powerful legs. Great job folks!

CrossFit Playing with Push-ups

2008-04-18T09:32:00.001-07:00

I love pushups! I love them because you can do them just about anywhere and with little to no equipment at all. They also build good muscular endurance and core strength (something you don't get on the Bench Press). Watch as Anne and some others from CrossFit Santa Cruz demonstrate some nice pushup variations. Try some and had some to your program and reap the benefits of a great exercise.

CrossFitters do it anywhere

2008-04-03T13:17:00.000-07:00

Here is a prime example of the versatility of CrossFit. All you need is a beautiful beach, blue sky and a surf board. This is the kind of CrossFitting that I would love to do!

"Necessity is the mother of invention"

2008-03-25T09:22:00.000-07:00

Here is a prime example of that old cliche. This is CrossFit Baghdad-International Airport and they are showing that a little imagination and fortitude can go a long way in the fitness world. Keep up the great work and you all make me proud to be part of CrossFit. Dion

Just hanging out

2008-03-24T07:27:00.000-07:00

Thanks again everyone for your wonderful support!

Congrats CrossFit Quantico

2008-03-17T13:11:00.000-07:00

This is Jose V. from CrossFit Quantico and I am happy to say congratulations you guys on getting affiliated. I had the wonderful opportunity to have met Jose while I was visiting Quantico last year and he is one hell of a guy. I wish you all great success and I can't wait to visit you guys this year for a difficult and wild workout. Hey Jose don't forget to let me know when the CrossFit Quantico t-shirts are ready because I would love to have one. Dion

I am back!

2008-03-03T11:39:00.000-08:00

Columbus gets pretty cold this time of year!

Here I am hanging out with Wolf from the New American Gladiators.

I am back from the Arnold Classic and ready to resume business as usual. I love going on the road and demonstrating and talking fitness but the road is tough on the body. Eating out all the time and my workouts being inconsistant makes me feel ran down. I am so ready to work out again on my regular schedule and getting everyone training hard again. Dion

Congratulations Valarie

2008-02-23T18:26:00.001-08:00

Congratulations Valarie or should I call you Ms. Siren? I had the wonderful pleasure of meeting Valarie last year at the Arnold Classic as she came by our booth for a workout. She impressed me with her obvious beauty but she impressed me more with her core and muscle strength. I just wished she stayed longer so we could have done a "Barbara" together. Anyway, congrats Ms. Siren for blessing us with your beauty and strength on the New American Gladiators.

Eva T.

2008-02-19T09:26:00.000-08:00

This is Eva T. and she is just as strong as she looks! I worked out with her at CrossFit San Diego and CrossFit Santa Cruz and she is amazing. Eva is a true testiment of the wonderful results of the CrossFit methods of fitness.

Still going strong!

2008-02-11T11:23:00.000-08:00

Thank you all for your dedication to a program that is still going strong.

Congratulations twins!

2008-02-04T11:36:00.000-08:00

Congrats Amira and Yasmin! You two have been attending class on a consistant basis and have impressed me with your 100% efforts. You two also have invited many friends and have represented our group very well. Wear your shirts with pride because you have worked hard and earned the right to wear the Purple Shirt.

Boot Camp Trains Recruits In Fitness

2008-02-01T18:06:00.001-08:00

Congrats my brother! This is D.I. Rodney Carson and he is my brother in fitness. He and I went through our CrossFit Cert together (San Diego December 2006) and have been bro's ever since. Besides both of us being dedicated to fitness, Sarg (that's what I call him) and I share something else in common. He and I have relatives from the Philippine Islands. You may also recognize him from the Mather Mud Run. Sarg is the man behind that fun but muddy run and is always looking for more people to get involved in running this race. Congratulations again bro for getting some tv time and I wish you much more success in the future with your boot camp and mud run. Dion

Yet another accomplishment for Dene!

2008-01-22T09:04:00.000-08:00

Pictured is Dene and friend atop the very scenic Angel Island after their 10k fun run.

Congratulations Dene on competing and completing yet another fine fitness accomplishment! You look great after finishing your run and I know you enjoyed yourself while taking in some great views. The only thing that would have made this a perfect day was if you were wearing your purple CrossFit Napa t-shirt :)
