Week of 08/22/2022

Happy Sunday, athletes! What an exciting week of training! I was able to see some PR’s on Friday in the heavy Thruster workout, which is always a fun time! Look for some more opportunities to crush goals and test new benchmarks this week!

First things first… be sure to get signed up for CFD’s individual competition, DEVELOP WITHIN! Register before September 7th to get the comp T-shirt!

Comp will take place Saturday, September 24th. Choose to compete Rx, Scaled, or Master’s (40+). Develop Within is a perfect opportunity to get your feet wet if you are interested in doing CrossFit competitions. Not ready or interested in competing? Plan to come out to show your support for your fellow CFD athletes as well as athletes from all over the area.

September will also bring CFD’s in house challenge, The Mile Challenge. Learn more on the CFD athlete’s facebook page!
