ReplyDeleteShane you are an amazing athlete & friend. I have known you now for 4 years with Fitness Firs. Do you remember when we did our very first Crossfit workout at the gym..lol it was brutal. You have come such a long way since then & i love watching you during a WOD at any games because you don't give a 100% you give 110% & you make me want to become better at Crossfit. Love & Chi Richards :D
ReplyDeleteHey Shane - only just realised I hadn't posted a comment here!
ReplyDeleteI really love and admire how committed you are to your principles for creating an awesome life for yourself, and that you so willingly share that with everyone else. Your attitude really is infectious. Although I'm certainly old enough to be your MOTHER (OMG!) I feel like you have a far more mature and sensible approach than me to things that really matter! Please keep your cheeky sense of humour and never grow up!
Plus, you're not a bad athlete either.... hehe!

Was going through & cant believ i have not posted. I was away when this was put up & meant to post when i got back,, my bad!
ReplyDeleteIv known Shane for about 18yrs & have had a close friendship with him for about the last 5-6 years. He has been representing CFP in many games & open days since day one. He is always happy to share advice/tips on anything from training, health, actually he will gladly give his 2 cents worth on just about anything lol.. He is a great guy to have around and is always lending a hand to others. We have many debates on stuff ranging from training, nutrition, animal cruelty right through to who the coolest superhero is.
Your more than just a friend mate (whatever that word is).... This is starting to sound like a eulogy, so ill finish up by saying congrats on your Number, I know you wear it proud.
