Happy Easter!
Happy Easter, CFUM! Scores showed up yesterday at the War Memorial Track & Field to honor CFUM founder Kaye Whitney, demonstrate solidarity within our Neighbor Island CrossFit community and get in a good workout. Frank and I watched with chicken skin the largest gathering to date of local CrossFitters, who showed that we share a bond bound by sweat and the fact that we all are connected through this island. Special thanks to all the affiliate owners: Robert and Kristi of CF Raw Fitness Maui; Danny and Whitney of CF Maui; Anthony and Meghan of CF Lahaina; and Lee and Michelle of CF Maui Extreme, along with special guests and Games athletes Freddy Camacho and Chyna Cho of CrossFit One World; CFUM longtime friend Jor of CF One World; Lance Whitney; and all the local affiliate coaches, members and off-island affiliate members. Local CrossFitters enjoyed hanging out and meeting one another. Owners agreed that more gatherings like this will be planned for the near future. Here’s to an even healthier and stronger Maui!

I wanted to let you know that I will still be hosting the 30 Day Paleo Challenge, beginning on April 1st. I know that Kaye was really excited about the challenge, and I would like to do the challenge in her honor. I will be donating a portion of the proceeds from the Paleo Challenge back to the box, to invest in some new equipment that we can all enjoy. I think it would make Kaye happy to see us all taking the necessary steps together to keep both the box and our bodies sur-thriving. By eating in accordance with how Mother Nature intended, we are able to optimize the way that we look, feel and perform. Let’s all take this journey together to creating radiant health!
