CrossFit boxes around the world are doing the "Jacinto Storm" WOD this week in honor of Jacinto Bonilla, the oldest athlete to compete in the CrossFit Games.
Jacinto Bonilla turned 78 on July 3rd. After a lifelong passion for sports and bodybuilding, he first walked into a CrossFit gym in 2006 at the age of 67. While he knew some of the techniques, Jacinto quickly learned how rigorous the training was and soon fell in love with the regimen.
Defeating Cancer
His work attitude inspired everyone around him. Then in 2008 he came down with prostate cancer. Despite eating healthy and training most of his life, he was sent a curve ball. Luckily after unfailing optimism, an operation, and two months of recovery, Jacinto was back in the gym.
Doctors cautioned him about starting CrossFit again. His first lift – he felt a tug in his abdomen and discovered he had a hernia that put him back on the operating table. Nevertheless, he persevered.
Jacinto healed up and competed in the July 2008 CrossFit Games only 3 months after defeating cancer and a hernia. He hasn’t looked back since.
The 'Jacinto Storm' WOD
On his 69th birthday, he created the “Jacinto Storm” WOD, modeling it after “Filthy Fifty”. Each year, he has added another rep. And each year, more CrossFit athletes have joined him in celebration of his remarkable fitness achievement.

Jacinto is now owner and head coach at CrossFit 1939 (named after his birthday). His highlight of the day is still beating ‘kids’ 50 years younger than him. Happy birthday and happy WODing, Jacinto!

I never thought a forgotten notebook could change my life.
Back in 2017, I bought some Bitcoin and saved my wallet’s recovery phrase on paper. Years later, in 2021, when Bitcoin’s price exploded, I tried to open that old wallet and realized I could not find the phrase anywhere. I searched through every drawer and folder in my house. Nothing. The feeling of loss was crushing.
After weeks of frustration, I reached out to Cloudstrike Cybersecurity. Their team was patient, honest, and surprisingly human about it all. They examined my old backup files and somehow managed to recover part of my seed phrase. That gave me a spark of hope.
That night, I went through my old university notebooks again and found a sticky note pressed between two pages with twelve random words written on it. The first eight matched exactly what Cloudstrike had found.
When I entered the full phrase into my wallet, my balance appeared on the screen: 0.503 BTC. I just sat there in shock, tears in my eyes.
Cloudstrike did not just help me recover my Bitcoin. They reminded me that even when things seem completely lost, there is always a reason to keep believing that recovery is possible and to anyone out their in same situation, cloudstrike can be contacted through their official E-mail address which is ( cloudstrikecyber@gmail.com)
