“UKactive currently has circa 1900 facilities feeding in weekly data looking at visits and confirmed Covid cases. The latest stats show that from opening up until the 11th October there has been 43.5million visits, over 5 million visits within the week, which gives a cases per 100,000 visits of just 0.98, which is very low risk, especially compared to other sectors.”

Armed with that information, Mark Drakeford and the Welsh Government have made the decision to force us to close a second time this year as Wales enters it’s “fire-break” lockdown.
In an open-ended lockdown, beginning on Friday, CrossFit Cardiff will sadly shut it’s doors until further notice. Drakeford has promised that this will be only until November the 9th. And although I trust him about as far as I could throw him (likely actually to be quite some distance), this is the date that we will plan for.

Therefore, I will be forced to adjust the class timings for Friday afternoon to the below:
12:00 - 13:00
15:30 - 16:30
16:30 - 17:30

Below are the further intended measures in order to attempt to facilitate your membership as much as possible while ensuring that there is still a business for you to return to following #lockdown2.0

  • All reoccurring November memberships payments will be reduced to 50% of their regular price

  • All 10-pack memberships will have expiration dates removed

  • Zoom classes will re-start on Saturday 24th at and continue with the timings below:
    WoD: Weekdays: 07:30 - 08:30, 12:00 - 13:00 and 17:30 - 18:30
    WoD: Saturday: 10:00 - 11:00
    Yoga: 11:30 - 12:30

  • Kettlebells and Dumbbells will be leased to those who want them (at 17:30 on Friday night only)

  • A Halloween themed zoom party piss up on October 31st, event details to follow.

Anyway, back to the week ahead. Please keep an eye out for further details regarding any future horse shit constraints applied to us by a complete and utter muppet…
I personally thought that this post was well written with an extremely low level of sarcasm considering the current situation.
