I had my wallet stolen out of my bag, which was on the stairs at the back of the studio at 5pm. Within an hour, the person charged thousands of dollars at CVS, Safeway, and a hardware store on 5th street. I have always felt safe and comfortable at Balance CrossFit, so I'm surprised and sobered. Please be careful with your stuff. If the fraud investigation lands a name, I will be sure to post it everywhere.

Wow, Kira. That is terrible, and it definitely makes me think twice (again) about leaving my stuff in the back of the gym.

Thanks for posting.

Funny quote from class:

To Rob: "You have such skinny legs. They are nice legs. You should shave your legs and wear a skirt."

Moral of the story- don't drink wine before coming to cross fit :)
