The gym will be closed on Thursday and Friday for the Thanksgiving holiday. If you want to sneak in on Friday sometime, let me know. Some of my family might want to join you. There won’t be a scheduled WOD for that day, but you can come in and play with something. Anyone who signed…

The Open is completely in the books now. Wherever your standing is now, is it. For those of you that have done the Open before, see if you improved from last year. For those that participated for the first time, you will be able to see how many thousand places you move up in the…

We have one more day of the Open for 2020. I am so glad to be finished! I really do look forward to the Open every year. The competition and camaraderie and mutual suffering is always a bonding experience. But I always look forward to it being over almost as much. For those of you…

I figured out what I want for my birthday wod. Just remember, you can and should scale the movements that are bad for your health! I like these, but I might be alone in my enjoyment. When it’s your birthday, choose what you like. That’s what makes birthday wods so much fun, they are all…

This is birthday season. Kathy had a birthday that we missed. Her suggestion was to eat as many cupcakes (with buttercream frosting) as possible. When she comes in with cupcakes we can be all over that one! Dixie has a birthday this week and mine is next week. Ours will be fun, but without cupcakes.…

The Open for 2020 has begun. You have Monday to do it, or do it again if you’re crazy enough. Either way, be sure to submit your score before 7 pm on Monday. There are no exceptions for late entries. Don’t wait until the last minute and hope that the CrossFit site won’t go down…

I am only programming for 4 days this week because on Friday we will be doing the Open WOD 20.1 which will be announced on Thursday at 7 pm. Are you signed up? There is still time to do that. Go to https://games.crossfit.com and sign up. Then you can see how well you are doing…

Next week on Thursday the first Open WOD will be announced. We will do each of these wods on Friday and you will have the opportunity to repeat that wod on Saturday and/or Monday. Since we will be doing these anyway, you might as well sign up for the Open and see how much you…

The WODs are already on the boards at the gym. Let’s see if I can make the website WODs match the ones I have put up already. Sometimes I think you don’t really look at the website. Then so many of you tell me that what’s written on the white board is not what I…
