16.5 Is Upon Us

Open workout 16.5 is officially upon us... and oh boy, what a (repeat) treat!  This workout was also known as "14.5" and those of you who did the Open in 2014 remember it well I'm sure.  You're about to get an opportunity to see exactly how much better you've become over those two years (well, at least for this very specific test of fitness), so giddy up!  We're looking forward to another awesome "Open Saturday" at Arena Ready to close out the 2016 Open.

If you're planning on completing the workout during Saturday classes please make sure to read the workout info here and watch the standards video below so that you're familiar with the details of the WOD.  Thanks folks!
