Few Notes:
All of us at NorCal CrossFit apologize to our Santa Clara crew for today’s lack of water and bathrooms.
Early this morning I received a call from Cheryl saying that our water was off and the bathrooms weren’t working. My first order of business was to call my landlord, I then immediately called and ordered a few portable restrooms. My landlord had multiple people go to the site, eventually we realized that theft was involved. Last night a group of people stole 180 feet of copper tubing from the gym. The tubing will be repaired by tomorrow afternoon. In the mean time there are two portable restrooms with sinks at the gym. Unfortunately they didn’t arrive until 6pm (I called at 8am and paid for a rush order…I truly apologize).
Please send your get well wishes to your coach Patrick Barber. Today Pat called me and asked to coach the morning classes (in addition to Rusty). He said he had a stomach ache and would come in later. Unfortunately the pain continued and it didn’t seem to be food poisoning. Pat ended up going to the hospital and found out he had appendicitis. He had surgery today and is recovering. Pat will be ready to rock again soon! He is one tough guy!!

I know many of you go to the store and see the words “tea” or “Pomegranate” and automatically think healthy. Unfortunately most of these drinks including flavored waters, teas, and most other drinks have a TON of sugar!!!! Look at the second ingredient listed….hell that’s even before Tea or Pomegranate. Be very careful when purchasing these types of drinks and foods. Sugar consumed in the form of drinks including fruit juices is a very easy way to spike your blood sugar, secreting insulin and storing fat.
Some partner band work at Mountain View tonight
