@Gainsdalf the Whey, @ixaera, @Tanktimus the Encourager, @wovercast, @Sam Ashen, @Flex Luthor, Staci - I can’t even put into words how elated I was meeting each of you in person for the first time after talking for months/years online. (Or in the case of Flex and Ken meeting you again for more than just a few hours) Each of you exceeded my expectations of awesomeness and I feel that even though we had just met IRL, that you are already some of my best friends. An extra special shoutout to Chad for the last leg of the ride to camp and teaching me a new song and helping me solve my first Rubiks Cube!!!

Loading plates with you at the PL comp will be one of my favorite memories from camp: making jokes and doing bad math.

 

I remember blanking a few times because when something intense happens, like grabbing a bar on bench press, I have to reload the plate math program.  I'm glad I'm not the only person having lots of fun with it!

This.  Pretty much summarizes my experience from the first time at Camp!  Well said!

KD22 roomies - You fucking guys. Can I say best cabin ever???? Fuck it, I’m saying it. Best. Cabin. Ever. I’m voting next year to just drag our mattresses out to the porch and slumber party from day 1. Because that was the best. You Tennessee Honey drinking sons-of-bitches.

...

Particularly Raxie and Rurik, you guys have now become some of my favorite people ever and I’m truly honored to call you my friends.

...

I’m so glad I have found my tribe, somewhere we can all be together with no judgement, no bullshit, and just be ourselves and have an amazing time. I screamed, cheered and sang so fucking hard that I gave myself laryngitis. You guys, I made myself physically sick because I was so fucking excited for each and every one of your PRs, 20 seconds of courage and general badassery. Just let that sink it.

 

That slumber party might single-handedly be the best idea I've ever had, bar none.  That cabin was so welcoming right from day one... it was an honor be adopted as the rogue Canadian and crash in the porch each and every night.

 

It was absolute delight to bash out that WOD with you, Jon, Peter, and the whole crew on Wednesday night.  When you said you were down if I was, I might have found CrossFit Nirvana.  Those deadlifts were a handy warmup for the powerlifting meet to follow in 24 hours, but man, those step-ups though!

 

I'll keep this short and sweet by saying, #CampVibes365.  You already know everything else I would say.  Hope you get feeling better soon!

Trent and @Amdhiel - I love that we were able to share a car for 30+ hours together and came out of it not wanting to strangle each other. In fact, I would do that shit again. In a heartbeat. You guys are amazing, thanks for making the trip awesome and the car ride interesting.

 

Madison nerds: @maigrey, @Haikoo, Amdhiel, etc - It was awesome watching each of you break out of your shell and really be in your own element. I could see how much all of you grew over this weekend and I am so hype to keep this train rolling. #accountabilibuddies

 

@Raxie, @Rurik Harrgath, @darkfoxx, @RisenPhoenix, @Big_Show, @StarGazer - I have only interacted with most of you briefly, if at all, prior to camp but you all, along with those above made camp the amazing experience that it was. Particularly Raxie and Rurik, you guys have now become some of my favorite people ever and I’m truly honored to call you my friends.

 

You don't know how glad I am that we were able to car pool to camp together this year and it was amazing that the three of us did the trip with out incident (and I let you drive my car !?! LOL). All the CNF feels to you and KD 22 peeps including that darn adopted Canadian @Rurik Harrgath.

I wish we had gotten a chance to hang out more! Watching your lifts (and @Rurik Harrgath's!) were freaking inspiring and made me want to get my ass back in gear so much more on the powerlifting side of my training!

 

Next year I hope to be a fraction as epic as you were at the PL meet!

<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 Ughhhhhh.  My feels had just started to settle too.  And now my allergies are all acting up again... what is with this week? That fall pollen is serious.

 

It was so amazing and wonderful to meet you!!!! You are definitely one of my favourite humans ever too now - you are just the freakin' best. I'm so glad you're one of the people I met who is on the forums so it's easier to stay in touch.  I also didn't want to get all weird at camp about this because I have trouble saying feels in person but now that it's the internet again all bets are off.  You are not only a wonderful person but you are also such an inspiration! Seriously, you're a lifting bad ass.  You did so awesome in the PL Comp and I am so pumped to not be injured next year (GOD DAMN IT PL GODS DON'T LET ME BE INJURED NEXT YEAR) and compete with you :D 

 

Also, you should know Mr. Raxie is not too pleased with me because I've made him listen to Purple Lamborghini twice since being home. >.<

You are too sweet!!! :D Hopefully next year you can be just as awesome right alongside me.

Mr Raxie should be lucky he is getting off easy only having to listen to it twice!!!!! ;)

 

For anyone not familiar, this was basically the theme song for the dance parties. The DJ was SUPER confused as to why a bunch of us nerds kept requesting a song this "hood" until he watched the video. #undercovernerd #calculatorwatch

Just replace "might actually be" with "am" and we're all good here. Before I even knew your name, I was literally like "who is that pink-belted badass?" in my head.
