From Forbes.com: "[Today] is the 40th anniversary of Title IX, the law that made discrimination between men’s and women’s educational programs illegal. Its widest impact has been expanding girls’ and women’s sports in high school and college, creating the impetus for greater professional opportunities for female athletes. These are great achievements and we should celebrate them."

One of our original Compound members, Dave Adams, has his business website up and running, Blueridge Consulting. Many people forget that accuracy is an aspect of fitness. Dave has certainly improved my shooting accuracy, when I first arrived at the Sheriff's Office I was a mediocre shooter at best, so he really knows his stuff. Check out his website if your interesting in improving your shooting or hit Kyle and I up if you want to go do some recreational shooting sometime!

I often get made fun of my hat. My plain black hat. No team logo, no brand design, nothing. I go to a store, find a plain black hat and buy it. The store clerk will ask if I want something on it, a team, my name, or other type of "bedazzling". But I am fine with my plain black hat. I wear Sambas when I play indoor soccer, I wear DC's for most of my workouts, but other than that not much affiliation or adoration to anyone.
I write that only because I wanted to let you know I am not the type of person to push anything on anyone, so its not easy for me to push this. BUT.....to the right, there is a new graphic that states "Reebok CrossFit". Click on it and its a link to the Reebok CrossFit online store. Reebok is doing a good job supporting CrossFit not just at its highest levels, but at the small town affiliate level as well. So we posted a link, if you are inclined to buy something, use our link and The Compound makes 10% on the sale. Not bad for Reebok, CrossFit or The Compound.
