Crossroads Bootcamp opened October of 2009. CrossFit on 18th became an official CrossFit affiliate in January of 2010. I remember back on those days not a single woman could do a pull up and most of those women thought a 95 pound deadlift was a huge weight that would make them “bulk up”. At the same time we didn’t have any men who could do a muscle up or deadlift over 400lbs.
For those of you who remember those days you will totally agree that we have come a long way. Now in February of 2012 we have a gym full of amazing CrossFit athletes that attack every WOD with an intensity seldom seen outside of the Navy Seals.
Because we have come so far as a gym it’s time to step up and put a team together for this years Open CrossFit games. If you aren’t sure what the CrossFit games are you have been living under a rock or are just a casual reader of this blog who hasn’t ever stepped inside of a CrossFit gym. If you are one of those people you can read the official CrossFit games site here. http://games.crossfit.com/
In 2012 CrossFit on 18th is an official hosting site for the Open and CrossFit on 18t has an official team.
Every Saturday starting February 25 for 5 weeks at 10am we will do the Open WOD for the week. Our format will be with a partner where the partner counts reps (and calls no rep as well) for the athlete and certify that persons time and reps. If one can’t make to Saturday WOD there will be opportunities to make up the WOD throughout the week but the results will still need to be certified.
Even if you don’t think that you have a chance of qualifying for the regional (I don’t) I still urge you to enter the competition and enjoy the atmosphere in the gym. We are going to rock this and I know that this year we will send athletes to the regional games in May.
Sign up here NOW. http://games.crossfit.com/
See you in the gym.
