Wednesday December 11, 6:30PM: Weightlifting Meet Prep

We'll be breaking out the kilo plates and "judges" for meet prep on 12/11 at 6:30pm.

We currently have 3 athletes participating in the Westerly Barbell Open on Sunday 12/22 and Wednesday 12/11 Olympic Weightlifting class will function as a meet prep night/dress rehearsal.

If you've ever been interested in a weightlifting meet and want to learn a bit more about what goes into it, this is a great opportunity to check it out. You can come & be the audience or if you want to work in on some lifts that's great too!

Saturday December 14, 10:00AM: Niantic Jingle Bell 5K @ McCooks Park

Class will only be offered at 8:00AM on 12/14 to allow time for our coaches & athletes to participate in this event. Schedule is updated in PushPress to reflect this.

Put on your best holiday running clothes and join our team "CrossFit Good Fortune" for this annual event to help make a difference and raise funds for the Brian Dagle Foundation and Brian's Healing Hearts Center for Hope and Healing. You can run, walk or just donate to this event.
