The CrossFit Open Starts this week!

If you can do just a single unassisted pull-up – sign up! Ask any of our members that did it last year about how much fun it was, how much they learned and how much they improved. It’s just $20 per person!
The Open will run from this Thursday, February 27th to Monday, March 31st. It will be 5 WODs throughout the next 5 weeks. A WOD will be announced each Thursday and you’ll have until the following Monday to complete it and post your score.
