*************************************************
To all of our athletes competing at the Festivus Event:
Go up there and kick some major ass. Remember this:
"Full Effort is Full Victory"
Take Friday off. No workout. Come in and foam roll or stretch if you like.
Remember to bring your training gear on Saturday; shoes, straps, jump ropes, tape, lax ball, etc.
Remember to be prepared nutritionally; pack a cooler. Protein (whey protein, chicken, hard boiled eggs, egg whites, deli meat), carbs (sweet potato, any root vegetable - I'm a big fan of the root vegetables at Cornucopia, fruit, Lara Bars are ok), finally little bit of fat (this is not the time to devour cans of macs). Coconut water is ok and of course lots of water.
The greatest way you can show your appreciation for our gym and our coaching is to sport your CFSS gear while competing. We are proud of all of you and we hope you are proud to be members of CFSS.

You are all amazing and wish I was there to witness you in action! In the words of the great Herb Brooks ... "Great moments are born from great opportunities. This is your moment.
