Workout of the Day

Bree, Blake and Ryan showed up for a early Sat WOD. Since none of them were there for Friday’s WOD, I told them the Wod I was going to post would have more Burpees than yesterdays which was still listed on the board, and gave them a choice. Naturally Blake opted for yesterdays WOD so the 3 of them did great on a tough workout this morning.

 

Great effort all!

Thanksgiving week schedule

admin
The schedule for this coming week will be unchanged Mon-Wed.

We will be closed on Thanksgiving Day.

If this really disappoints you do 100 Burpees for time in your living room for the WOD.

We will hold one workout on Fri, we’re thinking maybe at noon, but we’re open for suggestions of all who might be interested in a workout on that day.

Saturday will also be noon but we need to know if everyone would like to move this back to an AM workout since the ski season will be underway and you may want to be out skiing and riding.

Please post thoughts to comments here or let us know at the gym.

Yesterday’s Workout was a Hoot! Uff da! It was nearly two hours long, but fun was had by all. Thanks to all of those who came out!

The team WOD completed by two teams of five members.
