Will

We are also very excited the 2018 CrossFit Open kicks off this week.  Regardless of whether or not you are participating, please take a moment to review the notes on adjustments we make to operations during the Open. 

  • Intramural Teams: be sure to sign up for the Open on https://games.crossfit.com/open by Wednesday at 5 PM to be placed on one of our Intramural teams.  Be sure to mark CrossFit Forte as your affiliate.  Captains (Nat, Sisco, Snow, and Lee P.) will be drafting teams Wednesday night and we will share the team lists with everyone Thursday.
  • Tee Order:  If you’d like a Forte Intramural tank or tee, submit your order here by tomorrow, noon February 21st.
  • Olympic Lifting: During the Open (from Feb 22-Mar 22) Thursday 6:30 PM will be Open Gym.  Evan will write a weightlifting workout for those who want to do it at that time.
  • Saturday Classes:  We will have “heats” you can RSVP for on Saturdays starting at 9 AM to complete the Open WOD.  If you are not participating in the Open, you are still more than welcome to come work out!  Heat options will be posted after the WOD announcements Thursday nights.  Friends and family are welcome to come cheer you on.
  • End of Open BBQ: On Saturday, March 24th we will host a BBQ at the gym after the last heats are complete.  We will provide burgers and hotdogs, please bring sides and your drink of choice to help celebrate all our athlete accomplishments.   Friends and family are encouraged to join.

As always, please reach out with any questions or concerns.  We are looking forward to another Open season filled with personal victories, healthy competition, and most importantly, camaraderie!
