was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.”

At CrossFit Palo Alto in California, the Legends class welcomes athletes 60+ and adapts CrossFit to prioritize what matters most with age: longevity, mobility, strength, and independence.
Coach Kristen Dymmel has watched these athletes make meaningful changes — not just in the gym, but in everyday life. More energy. Greater capability. More confidence in what their bodies can do. Because the goal isn’t simply to live longer. It’s to stay strong enough to fully live while you’re here.
We’ve had The Legends Class for eight years and the members are thriving! Not a season goes by without a story from this class about a trip that involved a lot of physical demands that were met without fail. Recovering from joint replacements and other surgeries. Getting in and out of canoes/kayaks. Lifitng luggage. Walking for MILES! (kilometers) The Legends keep on keeping on at a level much higher than many of their peers.
Thank you to CrossFit for highlighting this class, the capability of everyone and the value we all bring to the world.
See you in class.

Overheard in Class:
“Even if it’s light you can still do it right.”
I dropped in to CrossFit Gahanna in Columbus on Saturday.

Lonnie Hawkins, (Will Ferrell) 2004’s number one golfer, struggles on the back nine of his career to recapture his magic. His body says retire, but his heart says he’s not done yet. His ex-wife and his son Lance, golf’s new golden boy, know he’s through. But with one more major to win to complete golf’s Grand Slam, Lonnie refuses to believe he’s anything other than one stroke away from the greatest comeback in golf history.
Tim’s Takeaway: I watched the whole season on one flight to Columbus. Pro Tip: 1.25 speed. You won’t even notice it, but it goes faster.
Ridiculous. Hilarious. Not too stupid. Not too preachy. Just a fun story with some twists and turns. I highly recommend it. For me it was a good continuation from Stick on Apple TV.
Thank you for your support.
I look forward to what we will do together.
