CrossFit Workout - Friday 11/28/14

Happy Thanksgiving to all.  Don't worry about waking up early tomorrow since we are not open in the early a.m. hours on 11/28.

We will have three workouts on Friday 11/28/14 - 9:00am, 9:30am and 10:00am. All members are welcome.  Please expect large crowds at each of these wods, so if you are fussy about 'your space" you have been warned.

We will be doing the Deck of Cards workout on Friday morning so start your warmup at 9:00,9:30 or 10:00am and be ready for a fresh deck to start at 9:20, 9:50 and 10:20am.  You will not be permitted to join a deck in progress so don't be late.

** This will be one of the most grueling decks ever, so bring your "A" game!

Normal hours will resume Saturday.  If you have out of town guests who would like to try CrossFit, bring them to our 11:00am Basic Intro Workout on Saturday. You can join them, and it's free.

Unfortunately we don't accommodate non-CrossFitters during our member workout times. Just because your cousin Sally is in really good shape, she can't come unless she is an experienced member of a CrossFit gym back home. The Saturday 11:00am Basic Intro Workout is certain to give her a 'whooping'. ;-)
