The Week

Hey Everyone.  Hope you are all taking care of yourselves and your friends!  Loic is going to start doing some coaching for us and will be in on Tuesday and Thursday for WODs at 9:30 and 10:30am.  I will maintain regular posted hours on Wednesday and Friday.

I know you are all working hard with the sandbag effort, but believe it or not, a good CrossFit WOD is a great way to break up the monotony of scoop, fill, tie, load, unload, stack, scoop, fill, tie, load, unload, stack.....

Keep me posted on how you are holding up and if you need help with anything.  The need is overwhelming and lets all just do our best!

Update

Hey Everyone.  What a crazy week!  I hope you are all getting in good "sandbagging for time" WODS!  I'm sure your phones have been buzzing with messages from people that need help, I know mine sure has.  It's almost overwhelming to try to figure out where to go to do the most good.  Keep up the good work, and maybe I'll see you in the sandbag line!  

I'm going to open Saturday morning for two WOD times, 8am and 9am.  Then it's off to scoop more sand. 

On Monday, We'll run WOD times at 7:30, 8:30, 9:30 or 10:30am.  Then I need to scoot to Fargo and fetch my pickup. 

Do not worry about missing a few days of workouts!  Come if you can, but I'd much rather have you all out helping your friends, neighbors and co-workers.

Here's a few pics from the week:

Flooding, Workouts and Other Stuff...

Hey all, Kamie Ensz could use a hand with some sandbagging at her new house.  If you can help out, give her a shout at 701-202-1851 and she can let you know where to go.  If any one else needs a hand, let me know and I'll get the word out. 

And Carol Bjork just called too.  She's helping the Hoeven's out at their new house on Traynor.  Go down Washington to Burleigh, take a right then back up to to 2221 Traynor.   There's a sheriff down there to guide you.  I guess they just closed Riverwwod Drive.  Carol's number is 226-9023.

We'll have a Saturday WOD this weekend.  I'll let you know the times shortly.

Also, since Monday is a holiday, I'd like to wrap up at noon.  So come early if you can.  If any of you can't make it before noon, please let me know and I'll do my best to accomodate you.

And, the mural is nearly done!  Nice work, Paul!  You know they used to arrest punks for spray painting walls....

Mural!

Paul Ide from Fargo (Wild Knights CrossFit) started the mural today!  It's already way cool!  We've done a little shuffling to make room, so things are just a bit out of place.  so you A/R and OCD peeps just chill  :)

Weekend Hours

Saturday: 2pm or 3pm

Sunday: 1pm or 2pm

It's time for lots of you to get started on the rings and the GHD if you haven't already.  For the first part of each hour, we'll get on the rings and start to learn.  Also, quite a few of you are hitting your 3 month anniversary.  This weekend might be a good time to retest your baseline workout.  

Another great week!

Watch the website and your email for weekend hours.  I should have them set soon...here's a few pics from the week.

The Saturday Plan

Sleepy Hollow Run: 7:15am.  Meet in the first parking lot after you turn in the park.  It's supposed to be really really cold so prepare!  We'll run on the paved trail if it's too muddy.

9:15, 10:15am, or 12:30pm WOD at the gym!

Man what a weekend!!

Saturday workouts

Hey Everyone,

Here's the scoop for the weekend...two workout times at the gym.  7:15 or 8:15am.  Then, as an added bonus, a Sleepy Hollow trail run at 9:15.  We'll meet in the parking lot just off Divide and hit the trail.  Its a rather narrow dirt path, challenging and fun to run!  Lots of hills, skunks, pheasants and mountain lions.  You'll need to prepare if you want to give it a try.  Bring old shoes and clothes you're not afraid to get really dirty.  You don't need to run the whole path.  It's cool to walk it.  Just come give it a try.  If' it's too wet, we can run on the asphalt bike/walking path that runs through the park...
