Dan's Tour



He did it! The first tour has been completed. Nice work Dan.

Proper rest and proper nutrition between workouts.

6am, 9am, 7pm

Will He Do It?

We've had those rare individuals who have made it to 5 workouts in a row. We've also had those rare individuals who have come to a morning workout and then again to an evening one.

We have yet to have someone even dare to take the CrossFit Philly Tour. It's been talked about, it's been blogged about it, but we've yet to see it actually happen. Watch out because it might just happen today.

Dan M aka OC showed up for the regular 6am Old City workout this morning, busting on Sam, I might add for not being there. Then just as we're about ready to start the 9am Mt Airy workout in walks OC, grinning because he might pull out the tour today, and evereyone knows it.

Will he do it? Stay tuned...
