Thursday is my last day at CFV and Too Tall has generously volunteered to organize our farewell party which will also be a pre-screening party for our Naked Fran video.
I hope that you can come say goodbye.
7pm Wednesday April 4th at CFV
Too Tall has kindly created this event as a fund raiser but Sunghee and I have received so much from you already that the only gift we ask or hope for is you. There is nothing more valuable that you can share with us!
Whether you can attend or not I am writing this to you:
No, not some other person.
YOU are the person I want to share this with!
But first I must say thank you! Thank you for your love and support. Thank you for helping feed my family. Thank you for helping feed my ambitions, my dreams, my courage and my confidence.
Thank you for teaching me about myself, about life, about CrossFit!
In your own way, you have contributed to my life and your contribution has been as unique and individual as you are. So many people have shared their gift with me but not one has given the exact gift that was yours to share. I am so grateful for you!
You have made the next stage of this adventure, that I call life, possible.
I will miss you.
As of March 31st I will no longer be your coach, but I hope that you will always consider me your friend.
Though our travels may include stretches without internet access, I am only an email away and as your friend I look forward to hearing from you, helping you and yes, maybe even coaching you when you ask for it (or sometimes even when you don’t).
We will keep you updated on our adventures by regularly updating our website www.crossfitempower.com. I hope that you visit. If something we share inspires or interests you please take the time to comment. It means so much to us to hear from you and to know that you are with us in the faraway places we will travel to.
The world is full of wonderful new friends waiting to meet us but we will always miss you and cherish your friendship.
My CrossFit journey hasn’t ended, it is only just beginning.
I hope the same is true for you.
There is nothing more important or more valuable than your health. No amount of money can compensate for the loss of health. Happiness is not sustainable without your health. Your health is the greatest investment you will ever make. You owe yourself and your loved ones the greatest health.
I have never claimed that CrossFit is the only path to health but it is the best one that I know. I have never claimed that CrossFit Vancouver is perfect but it is the best CrossFit facility, the best community and has the best coaches I have known.
If our time together has left you with anything, I hope that it is the committment to be healthy so that you can enjoy life and all its’ pleasures and treasures. I will never stop wanting that for you, however far away I travel.
Please share with me your successes, your triumphs, your challenges.
I hope that I will always be more than just your CrossFit coach!
With all my heart,
Corey
