U.S. Marine Lt. Col. Christopher “Otis” Raible, 40, of North Huntington, Pennsylvania, was killed by insurgents during an attack on Camp Bastion, Afghanistan, on Sept. 14, 2012. Raible joined the Marines in 1995, served in Iraq and Afghanistan, and was the commanding officer of Marine Attack Squadron 211 out of Marine Corps Air Station in Yuma, Arizona.
Raible trained CrossFit with his wife, Donnella, and daughter Catherine. His favorite movements were deadlifts, squats, overhead presses and bench presses.
He is survived by his wife, Donnella; daughters, Catherine and Allison; and son, Brian.

Youth Nationals!!!

Some of you might not know Karli and Brookelyn, but they are two young ladies that both qualified for the Youth Nationals in MI.  Karlie is the daughter of Kris Taylor and Brookelyn started lifting with Holly.  Brookelyn got picked up last summer by Elite Barbell Club in CO and has been working remotely with them out of her own gym.  I thought it was very cool that they both ended up lifting in the same class and same session. 

Both had a great met!!!  We couldn't be more proud of them! 

Karli went 6/6 in her lifts

Brookelyn went 5/6 and 3 Pr's and won her session. 

Karlie got to have her best friend surprise her to watch her.  Brooklyn had a friend with and got to met the One and Only Mattie Rogers!
