You read that heading and thought, what kind of blog is this??? Well, sometimes we need to show our love and appreciation for those in our lives, especially our CrossFit lives, who do the things that make it possible to have CrossFit in our lives.
At CrossFit Tuscaloosa, that person for me is undoubtedly Carla Skelton. We started CrossFit together at Northridge Fitness back in 2008, and she’s one of the people who has moved from gym to gym with me, before helping open CrossFit Tuscaloosa. She’s been a big sister to me and a fabulous training partner – the kind that cries with you when you contemplate moving to a new city/box, the kind that shares your OCD mentality about having the KBs organized against the wall in order of weight (this makes it easier to find the KB you need for a WOD people! It is not just OCD!), who calls and texts after every WOD you do in a competition because she’s memorized the event schedule so she can ask how you did. Yup, that’s my Carla.
As excited as I am about a new adventure with CrossFit Music City and the fabulous people there, I’ll miss my CFT family, especially my big sister. Love you girl!
Rhett Butler will miss you too.
