Saying Goodbye


Jenna Buckle | 05/27/2020 | 5

Well, friends — it’s my last WOD post before I’m headed to back to Los Angeles, California after an incredible decade in Somerville.

I want to take a moment to share how grateful I am for the CFSV community. I remember when I walked into this garage for the first time in late 2014. I was nervous, unsure, and definitely scared to try CrossFit.

What I didn’t know is that this place would change my life. From being a loyal 6:30am-er, to becoming a coach in 2019, CFSV has filled my soul and shaped me into who I am today. Thanks to CFSV, I am stronger, more confident, and prepared to take on anything that life throws my way.

I hope that, as a coach, I’ve been able to give back to you even a sliver of what this community gave to me. I know that when our doors re-open, CFSV will continue to be the safe, supportive, and inclusive space that we all know and love.

Thank you to our kick-ass members for inspiring me every day. Thank you to JT for believing in me, helping me grow as a coach and athlete, and showing me what it means to be a leader. Thank you to Nick, Kirstie, and Mel (the original coaching crew when I joined) for welcoming me to CFSV with open arms and nurturing my love of CrossFit. Thank you to Nelly, Mike, and Karina for being a dream team with endless creativity and passion for our gym.

It’s been an honor to serve as your coach. If I can be helpful to you in any way, please don’t hesitate to find me on Facebook or Instagram and reach out! I would love to stay connected.

With that, here’s your workout for today:

EMOM 9
A) 40 flutter kicks
B) 20 Russian twists (w/ or w/o weight)
C) 0:30 plank hold

For Time:
10-15-20-25-30
Goblet squats (w/ weighted object)
Box step-ups (holding object in any way)
