Congrats to me!!!


Just found out that I got advanced today to EOD 2 (E 5 non-navy people)! I'm very happy about this, since the exam was very hard, but myself and my 3 boys (1 of them with me here, Danny) that took it with we did well enough to all make E 5! This means more opportunity, and more money, and more discipline. Can't wait to get to Sicily to keep training hard and start work p training for deployment.




As for Crossfit, today was a much needed rest day for me, as the day goes by I get less and less sore, so I will definetly be able to hit it hard tomorrow. I think I might try Brendan G.'s DB squat clean thruster workout for the morning, and not sure for the evening. If I make it to the evening after that workout! lol.
