New Toys @ CFO! Thanks Mom!
We have some new toys at CFO, four shiny new Dynamax Medicine Balls! These are great tools, and since we now have a variety of weights (10,14&20) some of you for whom the 20 lb ball was prohibitive will be able to experiment with them now.
We will have to repeat Fight Gone Bad in the near future as the 14 lb Dynamax is the "ladies" weight for wall ball.
In addition we now have five depth gauges for full squats/ "Nasty Girls".
Feel free to thank my Mom (Dr. Tekla Lewin) in the comments section for gifting these to us.

Looking for a little extra motivation to row this holiday season?
Then look no further - our sixth Annual Online Holiday Challenge will start on Thanksgiving Day (Thursday, November 24) and end at midnight on Christmas Eve (Saturday, December 24).
Take the challenge of your choice: row 100,000 meters or 200,000 meters! Check out details for the 50,000 meter Kids Holiday Challenge below! For those of you who haven't tried it before - don't be intimidated by the thought of rowing 100,000 or 200,000 meters in less than a month. Each year we hear from folks who have never rowed any long distances before and have completed the challenge. Read our section on preparing for the challenge - and then give it a try!
Anyone in?

I think you want the 2006 link, unless time travel is part of the challenge =)

It's too bad the t-shirt is only for 200k and not 100k... I think I would've done the 100k otherwise.
