Attention all CrossFit on 18th Athletes!

You’ve been working hard for the CrossFit Games Open and we want to acknowledge and celebrate your dedication with a special First Friday Event called the 13.5 Bash coming up on Friday, April 5th!

We’ll run Open Games workout 13.5 that evening instead of our regularly scheduled Thursday. We’ll begin at 4:30 pm with judged heats until 7:30 pm. You’ll also be able to make up the Games WOD later in the weekend at Open Gym.

Even if you’re not currently participating in the Open, you’ll want to check out a games style workout and cheer on your fellow athletes!

CrossFit on 18th member Blake Miller, ( of Thing Big Partners), is helping host the musical side of the event as our DJ for the evening. We’ll provide beer and tequila, but feel free to bring your own beverage and snacks too.

We will need judges for this event- if you are interested, please email me at john@crossroadsbootcamp.com

Thanks and looking forward to seeing you all there!

Over 35 people stepped up to take our last Paleo Challenge, which meant fully embracing the Paleo lifestyle: no grains, dairy, legumes or alcohol for 28 days! That may sound impressive, but not as astonishing as the results our clients achieved during the past 28 days!

It was very hard to pick a winner- in fact it came down to choosing from among the top 10 most impressive results— to award only three. That was hard. Final winners were chosen not only on their final stats, but their before and after pictures. Pictures really tell the story and are incredibly motivating for others who are thinking about making this lifestyle change.

Here is the First Place Winner, Joseph Pierre

Joseph lost a whopping 17 pounds and 13 inches in just 28 Days with our Paleo Challenge! He also won a FREE month at Crossroads, a t-shirt and was our guest of honor at our Celebratory Paleo Dinner at the Culinary Center of Kansas City.

You can do this too! Sign up for the Challenge by reserving your Assessments on January 12th and February 9th. The program is free but the assessments cost $20. It will be the best $20 you ever spend- we guarantee it!
