Hey Dave,

   

I've been meaning to send you this message for a little while but, I've been a bit busy lately. I just wanted to thank you for driving out to my kettlebell competition a few weekends ago. I'd never competed in a kettlebell competition before and I was EXTREMELY nervous. Having you there helped me to relax. The extra support and coaching really gave me the confidence I needed to accomplish my goals that day. The one thing I love most about CrossFit (aside from kettlebells!) is the sense of community and the many good friendships I have formed with my trainers and fellow CrossFitters. I don't know anyone else that can say their trainer cared enough about them to drive 5 hours out to New Jersey to give them extra support. You were in no way obligated to do so but, you did anyway and that meant so much to me. Never in a million years would I have guessed that I'd be competing in a weight lifting competition or even coming home with a gold medal. It's because of you and everyone else at CrossFit that I am able to accomplish these things. I really appreciate everything that you, Brenty and all of the crossfit community have done for me.

   

thank you so much!
