A few notes to start the week:
- Rebekka completed her CrossFit Level 1 Certification this past weekend at CrossFit Fort Meade—congratulations!
- If you have yet to read yesterday’s post, get there soon.
- We painstakingly whittled the t-shirt tag list down to five (from 160+), and a poll is now posted in the right sidebar. Thank you again to all who participated. Please vote for your favorite only once between now and 9p this Wednesday, November 18. We will announce the winner in Thursday’s post.

Yay Bay-Kay – Congratulations!
Congrats Rebekka!! You deserve the recognition for what a great coach you are and how far you have come since MPH opened. I look forward to continuing to learn from you.
Sid
Yea – congrats Rebekka!
Bay-Kay…you are on the way. Level one is just the start. I am so proud of you, and very proud to call you one of my coaches.
Awesome Rebekka. I was wondering how you did. I feel like I have come a long way, in making friends, since I first moved here in the summer of 2007. Their has been many times where the only thing getting me through these gut-punching wods has been you all (my fellow athletes) cheering me on. Although, I am still realizing my true potential. I feel sorry for people who go to regular gyms. JW
Yay BK. I had no doubts. Congrats to you and you def did your MPH community and coaches proud.
Congrats!
Cool, Rebekka! Nice work.
Congratulations Rebekka!
Congratulations Rebekka — that is awesome!
Rebecca, Well done!!! I knew you would do it. You are an incredible athlete and I am proud to call you coach. Congratulations!! Next up…level 2.

thanks MPH for kicking my ass on my birthday. I left simultaneously feeling 15 and 95 years old–love it! Also, I am having a birthday party Saturday night. If interested, please email me at lainger16@yahoo.com and I can send you the evite.
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday, Christine!
Had we known it was your birthday ahead of time, well—we would have at least made the warm-up more interesting.
John
Christine Happy Birthday!!
I also wanted to let you all know that I have discovered Joe-I’m-just-a-row-machine-P’s secret identity. He is a chef at the Westend Bistro and he reached celebrity status with his appearance on the Today Show on 11/16. How cool is that?!

Very cool Joe.
Paleo Chefs Tasing Menu? I would be down.
Sean
Congratulations Joe, that’s amazing. So when can I get a reservation?
BTW – link to Joe’s restaurant:

Nice job Joe – you did well.
John
Joe,
That is just too cool!! Not only incredible on the rower but incredible in the kitchen…well done. Or rather, nicely done.

Nice JOE!!! Paleo French Toast might get you a free burpee pass 🙂 just a thought!
Joe- Nice job…you are one poised dude on camera while making root vegetables.
Hana and I have been there many times. The food is wonderful – we often eat at the bar as it is in essence a fairly casual place (which is why we like it) and I must admit that the Non-Paleo Burger is perhaps the best in the city. The menu is very approachable: classics that are very well-prepared with multiple subtle twists.
Who would have thought that CrossFit MPH would also offer restaurant reviews? Exciting!
I have a feeling that I am going to be yelled at now. 🙂
Joe- your segment rocked!
Thank you everyone for your support!
I agree Neil, Paleo french toast sounds awesome!
Joe! you stud!
roasted beets – my favorite food evar!
props man!
Tod
Joe cool vid! sorry that broad kept interrupting you and then you had a cougar invasion at the end. wtf? i will mos def come to your joint one of these days!
keep squattin’!
