Haven't blogged in a while - I think I've stayed in my rut since Zooma, looking for something to ignite me. I went to the Games last weekend - and this was the push I needed (in addition to the shoves I'm getting from BMJ to get back to running so we can do the San Antonio half this fall.)
Two of many cool pics I took at the Games, where 8 of my CFC family competed. Lance was in the first heat - and first to the finish line, of course. Jeremy's turn --what I love most about his picture is his brother, Zachary, cheering (or yelling?) him to the finish line. If you have not experienced Zachary yelling at you - well, you should. I too, almost have my voice back after yelling, cheering.... what a weekend!
Crystal, our 8th fittest woman in the world... was incredible to watch at the games. She fought for ever lift, every muscle up - every movement. Pics shows her determination and her style. 
One of the more memorable points in the Games was a work out that required rowing, then driving a metal stake into the ground, and back to rowing. It was a cool sight after all were done to look down the area where the stakes were all driven into the ground... wondered if another work out would require them to rip them all up. Carey had a great techniques of small "tinks" until the stake was well enough down to allow large blows. Crystal had no problems - finishng sinking the stake in great time. Jeremy was "tinking" along - until a few stronger blows tilted the stake and his destiny to drive this stake sideways began. This little incident took JT down the list - but gave us all a bit to razz him about which is of course great fun. Back to the farm to build some fences Jeremy.
