Re: Gillian Mounsey Article
As a risk manager, are you ever asked to give estimates without hard data? Non-sarcastic question.

Re: Gillian Mounsey Article
That's interesting. That doesn't mean it was from rhabdo or adrenal fatigue though. I've urinated brown and bright red myself after running a few times. When your bladder is totally empty and you're...

Ok, I can agree with that.
I still do Crossfit, but I've stopped doing thrusters, sumo deadlift high pulls, box jumps, push presses, double-unders, virtual shoveling, dumbbell cleans, kipping...
