Disclaimer: My camera sucks and takes blurry photos. I probably need to reset the DFO chip or something.   Well, I am happy to say that we (CCF peeps) survived yet another day with NO broken bones!  Apparently no one had a bad case of the Mondays yesterday because we had plenty of CrossFitters in to get after Tomi’s Birthday WOD.
