12/16/16: Magda WOD Tomorrow

Reminder – Saturday’s workout are in support of our good friend Magda.  Please read below.

One of our members, Magda Sliwowski, was diagnosed this summer with Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (ARVC).  This genetic heart disease forms scar tissue on the heart muscle causing abnormal irregular heart rhythms.

Before Thanksgiving, Magda experienced complications during a routine procedure — causing her to have emergency open heart surgery.  She has spent the past few weeks recovering in the hospital – and is determined to celebrate the holidays at home.

We all know Magda has the innate mental and physical strength to fully recover.  As her 908 family, we want to show her our love and support as she embarks on this journey ahead.  Therefore, we will be dedicating Saturday’s WOD in her honor.

Since she will likely still be in the hospital, we would love to film the classes and record words of encouragement to share with her.  Would anyone at the gym be willing to donate their time/services to making that happen?

Thank you in advance!
