WoD - Friday 15th February, 2019

I hope you are all waking up to some serious Valentines Day hang overs…making it all better by heading straight to your local supermarket and stocking up with a bunch of Easter Eggs which, have no chance of lasting until Easter!

So it appears that my post yesterday had an effect, annoying the hell out of you women enough to make you sign up to the open. This makes me happy for two reasons:

1. You actually read the blog!!

2. You bit so hard that we are going to soon need a bigger boat, due to team Reebok CrossFit Cardiff being filled with bad assed bitaches!!

The last piece in the puzzle is upon us, Friday. Go nuts and get after this WoD but remember, the week is not over. Head to the box on mass this Saturday, to support one of your own…Hamish in his quest for 5000 burpees…

WoD - Wednesday 23rd January, 2019

Team one of our own needs our help. Hamish is set to take on a significant challenge in order to raise funds and awareness for a charity dear to his heart. 

The inspiration for the event was to attempt a feat that would thoroughly test mental and physical resolve and, to raise money for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust. There are around 10,000 people in the UK living with CF and the Trust provides funding for research into new life changing treatments and clinical care, as well as supporting families and individuals with the condition. Hamish said “I’ve witnessed the important work that they do and their impact cannot be overstated.”

The challenge - 5000 Burpees. To be completed with a 15 hour time limit. 

The Plan - on Saturday February 16th, at 05:00, Hamish will begin his attempt. Pacing himself to complete 333 burpees per hour, will the goal to finish the last burpee by 20:00.
During that time, he is going to need some help. Any of you who are willing to jump on in and perform a burpee of 100 please, pipe up, you will be more than welcome!

Hamish has currently raised over £1,000 and is pushing towards an even bigger number. Each extra £1 raised will go a long way to motivating me through the day, Please help where you can.
There will be a collection box on the day or if you prefer, simply click here.

Get behind him and lets raise some serious cash for an awesome cause!

Good luck Hamish!
