Morning Chalk Up (@morningchalkup) is a daily newsletter for CrossFitters, founded in 2016 by Justin LoFranco. What started as an emailed aggregate of information has turned into a full sports journalism company that covers athletes, events, sponsors, and the full scope of the CrossFit Games season via articles, interviews, social media content and more. I recently became a writer with Morning Chalk Up, and thought it seemed both timely and fun to sit down with Justin to share the mission and background of the company. 

In this episode: 

• How the inception of Morning Chalk Up was inspired by Justin's political experience in Washington D.C.
• Tips for building a business with the intention of growing, scaling and selling it
• How as a "news" organization, Morning Chalk Up aims to stay unbiased 
• Using principles to guide your decisions (in life and business)
• The importance of establishing personal and professional core values
• and more!
