Just a boy and his dog...

Our ShopGym schnauzer, Harley 

So they say two things in life are guaranteed, taxes and death, and unfortunately CrossFit Niverville has been hit by the latter.

Since day one of ShopGym, our mascot Harley has been by our side more times than not.  From running circles in the old barn with Benji to laying at John's feet post-wod in our new place.  Every box needs a dog and from what I've seen almost every box has one.  Harley was ours.  He was our quiet, sensitive little guy, in many ways reminding me of his owner.

I've seen my dearest friend John aka WodFather go through some serious losses over the last year and a half and it is absolutely heartbreaking to me.  Harley was his boy, his sidekick, his dear friend and we are all so sorry for his loss. Our loss.

So raise a glass to our beloved mascot Harley today.  We know we'll meet up with you on the other side my friend where you will be known as the best damn CrossFit dog that every lived.

Godspeed Harley!
