The modern world has a bad habit of drowning out the knowledge of history. Silent and wise relics give way to loud enthusiasm.
We do that. CrossFitters I mean. Young bloods can’t get enough, and rightfully so, we have all been that excited rookie. But don’t forget the old hats like Patrick in the video above. The quite ones that get better well below the radar.

Patrick didn’t fly under my radar though… Great guy, awesome story! Nice job editing the video!
Really cool video, Patrick. I loved hearing how a five year veteran is still so devoted to achieving higher goals.

You’re another one of the “quiet fighters”, Patrick. It’s a joy to watch you wko with your son, and a blessing to have your medical insight as part of PCF’s community. And on the surprise occasion that you’re really live, I appreciate your sense of humor. The in-law holiday “blessing” was priceless.
Took Miko’s 9am…Nice job, and fast class.
