WOD - Monday 18th July

Welcome to Games Week.

For those of you that don’t know, this weekend marks the 10th Annual CrossFit Games.  The worldwide search for the Fittest Men, Women and Team which takes place in California.   The 2016 process, started back in February with the Open which many of you suffered in.... I mean participated in.

In order to mark the event, there’s a BBQ and Hot Tub party at my house on Saturday where we will be showing the games into the night, so if you haven’t already I suggest you book your place ASAP.

Before that happens though we have a weeks worth of Programming to get through, and this year like last, we will be programming past CrossFit Games WOD’s in a week long celebration/shitfest. 

As you can imagine, the CrossFit Games WOD’s are hard.  We make no apology for this….. its time to put on your big girl pants and go hard. This will culminate in us doing Murph on Saturday before the party.

But lets not get ahead of ourselves….

Monday is adopt an onramper.  We love these new guys, make them feel at home and reassure them that this is a great week to be alive.
