“Happy Birthday Mom!!!”

Let’s Just Pretend You’re Not My Mom…

Just Another RainCross Athlete…

“THE 5AM Athlete…”

The Hard Work You Have Put In Over The Years Is Amazing & Inspiring…

No Matter The Work Out… You’re There…

Yes… There May Be Many MODifications… But Hell… Some Of The MODs I Come Up With Are Harder Than The Actual “Rx’d” Movements!!!

You May Give Me Dirty Looks & Cuss Me Out In Your Head… But You Always Get Job Done!!!

And You’re Always There To Encourage & Push Other Athletes Through The Work Out When They Are Struggling… All The Way To The End…

And Words Can’t Even Express How Much You Have Helped Build RainCross Strength & Conditioning!!!

The Amount Of Time & Effort You Put Into Building CrossFit Riverside… RC CrossFit… & Now RainCross Strength & Conditioning Is Incredible…

THIS MOVE WAS ROUGH!!!

Scratch That… This Move IS Rough!!!

I Never Want To Touch Insulation Again!!!

But No Matter What Work Needed To Be Done… No Matter The Task @ Hand… Whether It Be Performing A Million Burpees… Scraping Off Flooring… Running 400 Meters… Painting Walls… Rowing XX00 Meters… Grabbing The Demo Crew Lunch… Bear Crawls… Baking A Cake… Etc. Etc… All I Have To Do Is Ask… And It’s Done…

As Your Coach… Couldn’t Ask For A Better Athlete To Train…

As Your Son…
