Happy Memorial Day to all, but especially all those US servicemen and women – including past and present CFDCers – who have served or are are currently serving around the world. Although Memorial Day is dedicated to those who have given their lives in defense of all that we hold dear, it’s an apt time to consider those who would gladly lay down their lives as well.

While many CrossFit boxes the world over are paying tribute by cranking through the seminal Heroe WOD “Murph” today, CFDC is sadly without our pull-up bars. Fret not, however, as we have something that should suffice.
