Pullapalooza 2023 | Rain City Fitness | Seattle, WA
Rain City Fitness' Pullapalooza Deadlift Party 2023 was an extraordinary event that aimed to raise funds for two Washington based 2SLGBTQIA+ organizations: UTOPIA and Lambert House. Not only did we, as a community, successfully support these important organizations, but it also provided an incredible opportunity for people of all backgrounds to participate on the platform. The event showcased lifters of different ages, colors, sizes, and identities, creating a truly inclusive and empowering atmosphere. BECAUSE EVERYONE DESERVES A SPOT ON THE PLATFORM. The cheering from the audience was deafening, as lifters attempted to conquer weights as heavy as 700 pounds. The result was astounding, with over $36,000 raised (and counting), which was then evenly split between UTOPIA and Lambert House. The support and energy from the crowd were so overwhelming that, by the end, I found myself voiceless but filled with the satisfaction of contributing to two worthy causes. So why am I talking about this here?…
