Charity Race for the Brian Higgins Foundation
The race is on September 16th and the walk starts at 10am, with the run following at 10:30 outside of “The Pub” in Ball Square. It’s $20 to register, and the money goes to the Brian Higgins Foundation, which helps special needs children and their families, other charities like Make a Wish, the Special Olympics, as well as various groups within the Somerville community. The Higgins family was born and raised in Somerville and are very active in the community.

Wounded Warrior Project
On September 22, 2012, the Boston Soldier Ride will take place to help benefit the Wounded Warrior Project. Soldier Ride is a unique four-day cycling opportunity for Wounded Warriors to use cycling and the bonds of service to overcome physical, mental, or emotional wounds. The rides are exhilarating and a great way to help warriors gain confidence and realize you can do this!
Volunteers are needed, and our own Jaime Bailey as well as Alicia Dunn, are participating at a few of the water stops along the course.
To learn more about Soldier Ride, you can visit:http://www.soldierride.org
If you want to volunteer, you’ll need to sign up with the Boston Warrior outpost here:https://mycarecrew.lotsahelpinghands.com/c/658503/login/?logout&language=en
If you have any questions feel free to ask!

“Can you see my thong?”
Meanwhile at Crossfit Somerville, Nick and Brian are getting ready for a quiet evening at the beach…
” THAT’S where you hid my Indigo Girls CDs?”
“Crossfitters LOVE tramp stamps!”
1. “Nick and Brian: Always getting proper depth”
2. Not a caption…just hoping Nick’s not planning on doing anything with that PVC
3. A new vocab word for you guys to throw around the gym: “Bro-bility”
I’m out.
“You got a tattoo!”
“What does my tattoo say?”
“Sweet!”
“What about mine?”
“Duuude!”

They sure put the “Press Here” button in a weird spot on the new Tickle-Me-Brian doll.
haaaaaaaa
Oh man. This is my favorite thing.
Really liked today.
95# on the splits… definitely the most I’ve ever gotten over my head.
WOD: 3 + 20 singles… 1 pd, 24″ box jumps (whoops), singles. I wish there had been 1 more minute in the AMRAP because I really wanted a clean 4 (first and last time I’ll ever say that).
And just like that, Brian was iced.
nick: “just bend over dude, it’s fine, no one is watching”
brian: “ugh, c’mon, not now!”
split: 105#. meh. i’m going backwards in my overhead ability.
wod: i tested out one of the wods from the garage games at new england next weekend. 25 back squats at 115# and 25 HSPU to 2 ab mats: 4:06ish.
Cal you are a beast.
Come on guys!! There are some good captions here, but you all can do much better.
I think it’s only fair that Nick and I get to decide who captures our Bro-mance the best with their caption. Winner to be announced tomorrow!!
Hey, I just met you,
And this is crazy,
But I have chalk on my backside,
So wipe me maybe.
“Brian you are going to feel two sensations – the first is going to tickle, the second, not so much”
Hahahaahah!
Brian enjoys his pre-PVC coconut oil lube massage
This isn’t getting old…

September Goal – Get 100# over my head
WOD – 2+70, 10 singles short of 3 full rounds
Ehh – was not feeling the box jumps or the jump rope tonight
Good goal! Me too!
SJ: 155#, I clearly needed more rest after Tuesday
WOD: 3+20 Rx, 30″ box, box jumps ended up being much harder than I anticipated
“What happens in the box…”
“…only gets weirder outside the box.”
