Memorial Day Reflection
We remember and thank those who have served and continue to serve this great nation of ours. CFG has many service men and women who work out at our gym. Be sure to thank them with a firm handshake. Sometimes we need to take a good hard look at where our country is because of those who have sacrificed and continue to sacrifice themselves for it. As divided as this nation is currently, we are all here, doing the best we can. So no matter what side of the fence you are on, be respectful, kind, and compassionate towards one another. Because you have no idea what others are going through and the sacrifices they themselves make every day in their lives. Let’s utilize CFG as the common ground instead of the battle ground. Allow CFG to unite us through the power of fitness because it always has and always will.
Memorial Day weekend is the kick-off to Summer for us all, but really, it is not about that. While most of you are performing “Murph” at CFG or wherever, push through the WOD and remember why you are doing it.
God bless the USA!
