Quote of the Day: “‘Inspire a generation’ is our motto. Not necessarily ‘Create a generation’, which is what they sometimes get up to in the Olympic village.” ~ London Mayor Boris Johnson extols the “energy and enthusiasm” of the Games’ 10,000 athletes, to whom some 150,000 condoms have been distributed.
Props to our latest OnRamp group (Paul, Matt, Christine, Dan, Keith, Pam, Bridget, Rebecca) who “graduated” today with their final class and workout. Introduce yourselves, ask questions, learn the rules, and enjoy the ride. Welcome back to Krista B. who after a summer off as a guide on the white water is back in town and in the gym. Also congrats to her for recently completing her CF Level 1 Certification Seminar. Good to have you back!

Notes:
From now on anyone who lifts the highest on strength day or is the fastest time on the whiteboard for a WOD must celebrate like this German Discus thrower below (you supply your own flag).
The endless discuss celebration (watch): Germany’s Robert Harting was so excited by his win in the men’s discus that tearing his shirt off in front of his cheering section in Olympic Stadium wasn’t quite enough. So he draped himself in the German flag and ran down the track, half-leaping over hurdles to the crowd’s delight.
