A fond farewell to Jimbo Garofalo. He has been re-stationed and leaves us for now. We wish him the best of luck and hope that he comes back often. He has made great strides with CrossFit and has developed into a monster. His numbers on strength days are sick and have improved ten fold from when he first started with us. Keep up the great work and post comments often as you will never fully part from this community. Good Luck my friend.

10. Hope you enjoy DC, and find a great new CrossFit gym. It won't be the same without you pushing me to go just a little harder.

26. tabata deadlifts (155#): I did 8 every round, but i think i went over 20 seconds on a couple, so i'm calling my score 7.
