CrossFit Open starts tomorrow!
The first workout will be unveiled at 8pm tomorrow night. We’ll be doing the WODs as a TEAM, Saturdays at 12noon. But in the event you’re out of town or can’t make it one Saturday, you have a few options:
1) Email Lis to schedule a make-up time (options are Thurs night at 8p, Fri morning at 7a, or Sunday during Open Gym, 12-2).
2) Visit another box to do the Open WOD. Most other CrossFit gyms will also be hosting the Open WODs and can validate your score.
So what are you waiting for? If you have questions, post them in the comments. You have until Sunday to join the competition and complete the first workout. Join the fun!
We’re also making a team shirt (see below), so let us know in the comments if you want one. We’ll place the order Wednesday. They’re $25 or $20 for Open competitors.
CROSSFIT OPEN ATHLETE COUNT: 28!
NO OPEN GYM THIS SUNDAY
Due to the Olympic Lifting Seminar at the gym Sunday 3/10, there will be no Open Gym. If you still want to break a sweat on Sunday, join us for a Park WOD at 12noon. Meet at the gazebo/benches in the middle of Piedmont Park’s Active Oval for some fun!

Does this mean the Pterodactyl is our mascot?
:). Yes. For next year's shirt, I envision a pterodactyl flying through the Atlanta high rises, dropping med ball bombs on lame condo pool parties.
CFM now has 30 athletes registered for the Open. SO EXCITING!
I'll take one…..L.
The crowd wants Golf Shorts to get off her ass and sign up for the open.
Golf Shorts… hmm… could he mean… Lynn? The paparazzi will be so disappointed if she decides not to participate. I can't wait to see her walk the red carpet (and by that I mean black rubber floor) each week in her latest CrossFit fashion!
John Dyer Lis Saunders…whoa? I never expected all this when I upgraded to the CFM membership! 1) I AM signing up. 2) My golf and gym attire exude panache. 3) I was going to think about going crazy and getting the new cfm gear in a tank…talk about giving the crowd what they want! I'm sure you will see a strong upward spike in class reservations after I released this nugget on the site. Get your popcorn!
