It is with a heavy heart that I share the news that one of our beloved members has passed away.

Holly Murchie had been a member of Kaiju for over a decade. Holly was a staple at our 7am class for as long as I can remember. It’s a running joke that she never signed up for class because when she started she didn’t have a phone with internet, so she never knew how.

For the past 12 years I’ve been signing her into every class. I even signed her in this past Monday. After tough workouts, she’d always say, “Who the heck came up with this one?!” looking directly at me with a devilish little grin.

Holly, I always made fun of you because you used to wear those gloves with the fingers cut off. And this year you finally bought yourself a pair of grips to use. You could never remember to bring them in from your car on the days you needed them, so you eventually just started leaving them in a cubby. Well, those grips will now stay attached to my bag for the rest of my life. No one will ever use them again, they are yours, and they’ll have a permanent spot on me forever.

Hug someone close to you today. Life is too short. There’s a chance you don’t get to hug them tomorrow.

I will miss you every day, Holly.

As Quarterfinals come to a close, we want to tip our cap to all the athletes who gave it their all this past weekend. All of our athletes endured 4 workouts over the weekend, some even repeating workouts to improve their scores. It was something special to see!

A special congratulations to TWO of our athletes for advancing to the next round: (unofficially)

Lori Doolittle (65–69) and Scott DeBurgomaster (45–49)!

Both finished inside their respective cut lines for the next stage. Lori finishing 35th in the WORLD 🌎

We’re proud of you both and can’t wait to see what’s next.

📸:

Thank YOU to all the coaches and members that gave everything they had the past three Fridays.

Thank YOU to all the members who picked up a clipboard and judged. Even if it was just a single workout. We couldn’t do it without you.

Thank YOU to all the members who worked out earlier in the day and returned to cheer on their peers.

We couldn’t have done the Open without you.

Now on to Quarterfinals!

📸:

Six months from now you’ll have six months of excuses or six months of progress……

You choose.

Start today. Even the small steps count.
