I came to CrossFit 2311 because I just wanted to feel better and lose a little weight. After I finished retired from the Navy all I did was walk, and roam around the rec center avoiding most of what looked like hard work!

My first impression of CrossFit 2311 was that it was very intimidating, but it really isn’t. Biggest accomplishment is progressing in Toes-to-Bar. I saw people doing this 3 months ago and thought, that’ll never happen. Now I get one or two every round. Second is that I have overcome any reluctance and look forward to each session and am not happy when I can’t make it.

I’m still working to bring my overall strength up after too many years on the couch and working on my flexibility and mobility after hand, wrist and elbow surgeries.

My favorite memory of CrossFit 2311 is completing each of several named/hero workouts and the 2017 open. I did all of the workouts scaled (which still isn’t easy by the way. I’m looking to the day I get the first RX work out completed.
