Chip and Leslie ran the National Marathon this past weekend; I've yet to get the post game report from Chip but did hear from Leslie;"3:44:11! Faster than my training pace and only running once a week!
Now THAT is a testament to CrossFit!
My last 5 miles were less than 8:00 minute/mile and my last mile was around 7:20 pace!
Jon kept saying, “This is where crossfit is paying off for you, your body is able to get rid of the lactic acid before it builds up.”
I only had sore knees from the pounding, no significant muscle soreness to speak of…..I did a recovery ride yesterday that probably really helped….but I’ll be in tomorrow!
I have a half ironman in 16 days…….YIKES!"
Leslie is a Testament to what having the drive, determination, and commitment to take your fitness to a whole new level will get you!
We can provide the environment but it's you who takes the action!
From all of us at CrossFit Old Town; Congrat's Leslie!

AWESOME JOB LESLIE...
Stellar performance! I can't imagine running sub-8's for 5 miles let alone the last 5 of 26.2!!! Incredible.
Excellent job Leslie! I'm so proud of you. You're a ROCKSTAR SISTER!
Awesome job Leslie! Did she also mention that her time qualifies her for the Boston Marathon!!!
