Hey Folks!

The first week of the open is IN the books!  You guys are amazing!  There were Clean PRs, Jerk PRs, awesomeness PRs and everyone left with a smile (and maybe some torn calluses – ouch!)

4 more weeks to go!  Hopefully the rest of it is JUST as fun and we continue to crush extreme!

Reminder – Kristins Performance Enhancement isn’t tomorrow night, it’s wednesday night! :)
