Just this last week one of our younger teen members, Jackson Adler got a chance to test himself at the 2016 Cross Country Skiing Junior National Championships. I watch Jackson quite a bit at the gym and I’m always impressed by his work ethic and his attitude. I had Grace write up a little piece on Jackson’s accomplishment so I didn’t screw anything up. Keep on crushing every obstacle in your way Jackson, I as well as the rest of the gym am very proud of you and the fact that we get to watch you grow into a strong and healthy young man. 
“Jackson Adler just returned from competing at the 2016 Cross Country Skiing Junior National Championships, featuring 400 of the nation’s best under age 20 skiers. He qualified and competed as a member of the Midwest U16 Team. Over the course of last week, Jackson had 4 races, ranging
from 1.3k sprints to 7.4 k distance ski, utilizing both he classic and the skate techniques, on a very hilly race course! The week ended with a monster hill climb that tested his strength and fitness. In his first year of high level racing, Jackson consistently performed in the top third of his division at Junior Nationals, including a 21st place finish. He attributes his successful season in part to his CrossFit training. Jackson is also competing in the 14-15 Teen Division in this year’s CF Open”
Congratulations Jackson on your accomplishments, hard work and dedication does pay off.
Today at 9:15am a crew is coming in to film for an upcoming documentary for PBS about Veterans of this country and their transition back in to the civilian world. I encourage all vets and active members of the military to try to get in for the 9:15am class. Our military is very important to us at CFGB and now we get to show the world.
Have a great Tuesday!
