“Abbate"...

I realized about five reps into the first round of clean and jerks that 155lbs was a huge mistake. Went way too heavy but decided to tough it out.

Thought about giving up. Wanted to give up. Didn’t give up - because of Sergeant Abbate. 


U.S. Marine Corps Sergeant Matthew T. Abbate, 26, of Honolulu, Hawaii, assigned to the 3rd Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division, I Marine Expeditionary Force, based out of Camp Pendleton, California, was killed on December 2, 2010, while conducting combat operations in Helmand province, Afghanistan. He is survived by his wife Stacie Rigall, son Carson, mother Karen Binion, father Salvatore Abbate, and siblings Dominica Abbate, Elliot Abbate, Valerie Binion, and Kelly Binion.
