2/24-3/1: It's Open Time!
It’s that time of year again and our Fog City Open kicks off THIS WEEK! If you haven’t already, don’t forget to sign up here!
What is it?
The Open is a yearly event where we all get to test our fitness. Each week, there is a workout that everyone completes. We’ll have a Fog City leaderboard and scores can be compared to the CrossFit Open leaderboard worldwide. There are divisions for Rx, Scaled, Foundations, Masters, and more, so there's a place for everyone! For more information about our decision to host our own Fog City Open, please see our recent blog post.
Why should you sign up?
When we choose to enter a competition, we see amazing things happen – people trying their hardest, striving towards a goal, supporting each other, and accomplishing feats they’ve never done before. So we hope you’ll join us in taking that step of putting yourself out there, giving your best, and being proud of your accomplishments!
Logistics
Our Saturday classes will look a little different: we’ll be running heats of the open workout instead of our usual partner WODs on 3/1, 3/8, & 3/15. But as usual, sign up in MindBody for 8:00, 9:15 or 10:30AM each week. When you get to class, we’ll go over the workout, provide scaling options, get you warmed up and then we’ll start the official heats!! We’ll have judges to count your reps and sign off on your participation. Expect to do the workout during one heat and judge/count for a fellow classmate during another heat.
Participate & celebrate
If you haven’t participated in the Open before, it is A LOT OF FUN and ALL LEVELS are WELCOME! The energy in the gym is amazing, athletes often get their “first” of different movements, and of course there’s cheering and encouragement from the whole community! If you just want to come and help out by counting and cheering, please stop on by. And new for this year: we will create teams based on your usual class time and we’ll crown the fittest class time!
We’ll be celebrating the end of the Open with a party with prizes for performance and fun! It’s open to everyone, even if you don’t participate in the Open. (Details to come.)
SEE YOU ON SATURDAY! (PS: Don’t forget to sign up.)
