We received a message from a Stockyard friend, who we will keep anonymous as not to embarrass him should he feel that way, but we needed to take the time to show our appreciation for this persons kinds words. This is what makes it all worth it. Thank YOU. Thank you for teaching us just as much, if not more, about this whole process should always be about. So for anyone out there wondering if you can, YOU CAN! Hard work pays off. Figure out your goals and go get them, as this person did. Everything is hard for a reason. Its hard so that what once seemed hard will seem hard no longer. Thank you for your graciousness and we are privileged to have you at Stockyard. I started CF back in March. I joined with the sole purpose of training for the Tough Mudder, which was supposed to be in July. Obviously that got postponed to this past weekend, but the 11 miles and obstacles were honestly a piece of cake. I walked away from that thinking I could easily run a half marathon, which I would have never said a year or even 6 months ago. Ive lost 35# since March and am in the best shape Ive been in since college. Ive seen my strength increase unbelievably with back squat climbing to 280 from 200 in March; C&J going from 135 to 205; snatch going from 75 to 150. Its crazy! Ive done three mud races this year, finishing them all and all of the obstacles, and looking to do more in the future and maybe even a half marathon. And, what Im most excited about is being able to attempt Grace on Friday for the first time at the prescribed weight. Not sure what my time will be, but I WILL finish it...thanks to all of your investment in me and my goals. So anyways...all that to say that Its been almost 8 months since I started CF and Im hooked. largely because of how awesome you two are, and Im definitely grateful and thankful for all that you two do! Thanks!
