      It's a rare photo from the great oceanliners of the past. This may be a different angle.

      too bad it didn't float.

        Nice. I've seen these pics before, I believe they are from a White Star Line
        brouchure, possibly taken on the Olympic, the sister to the Titanic.

              Same here! I did love it. I'm 37 and my joints can't take jogging/running (left knee, right knee , some days both). I love the variety too. I stuck with it for the whole 90 days (over about 120 days though- had to travel for work etc.) but ended up with some elbow tendinitis from all the pullups. I did a "lite" version of crossfit for several months after that. Had to give it all up for the summer ( I work out in a garage in Florida - no A/C) so I reverted back to weights. As it cools down I'll probably pick up on "crossfit lite" again. I have been doing sprinting recently, which doesn't bother my knee.

                I know what you mean Tim - the first round I got a ganglionic (sp?) cist in my left hand middle finger. Had to have it aspirated which hurt like you wouldn't believe for about a week...then had to wait another 6 weeks or so before being able to even do one pull up. That's mostly the reason for the delay between round 1 and 2.

                Now I've been fighting a cold for about two weeks (man this one won't go away). Going to doc today so hopefully be back at it next Monday...I can't stand looking at my gym, well gyms...LOL, and not doing anything at all! It's killing me...
