Nice.
Which affiliate is closest to Bountiful? Might have to stop by on my summer vacation . . .
TexasPatrick,
Wasatch Crossfit in Kaysville is probably 10 minutes from Bountiful. Check out there site at www.wasatchcrossfit.com and get in touch with Damon. Great people up there at WasatchCF, they'll take care of you.
Thanks Tyson!
If it looks like I can drop by, I'll give Damon a shout.

Hooyah Utah! TP, you're welcome to come on down. We've got some monsters in Utah (Speal) and some new ones coming out of the woodworks. Good luck to our CF Games crew, I can't make it this year but we'll be sending a monster team down in 2009.
Damon,
Will try and do. It'll be nice to get some high altitude training . . . gasp gasp . . .
