The Vagabond Crew at the Turkey Throwdown!
I. The Quick Recap of the Turkey Throwdown:
Hey Vagabonds,
I just want to say thank you for everyone coming out and giving it their all during the competition. This day marked a great beginning by Vagabond CrossFit, as now, are starting to make some moves in actually doing some local competitions in the area. As all who attended, the pressure is lifted off your shoulders, when you are surrounded by your fellow gym mates, and other CrossFitters from different gyms. You get to see the community really at its best, and how everyone is working for eachother. I could not be prouder as owner of Vagabond CrossFit in the effort that everyone put forth during this weekend competition. This should forge a bond between us as as gym, and even make you want to work harder to whatever goals you have in your mind. As a gym we are growing each week, and our community is getting better each day.The great thing about competing is it pushed you to work harder, and also exposes our weaknesses, in which, this will push us to work harder in the gym! Thanks for all your support and keep the Vagabond name growing and beating! We had many pr’s, first time competitors, and some great overall standings.

Hey Guys,
So proud of everyone who competed and cheered on our fellow Vagabonds. It is amazing to see the community that we are creating and feel blessed everyday!

Great day congrats to everyone that took place in the comp and also thank you o the people who came to cheers us on!! Hopefully people got a taste to what a competition feels like and try get hooked!! Remember the open is right around the corner!! On another note felt good witht the workouts that I was able to compete in, had to leave at 12 to make it to work. That last one looked rough!!
I just want to say yesterday was a great time, and I was really feeling the love from my fellow Vagabonds. I think we had a great showing and everyone should be really proud.
I said it on Facebook but I will say it again, Vagabond and our little extended family there is AWESOME! Everyone made a difference for me, the cheering, hugs, side coaching and screaming in my face thanks to everyone who came and stayed it was COLD there and we were HOT! I am proud to be a part of Vagabond ;0)
