February 2019

Holy cow!!  It’s been ONE WHOLE YEAR of being Washougal River CrossFit!  It’s been an incredible year of learning.  We have greatly appreciated all the support you have given us along the way.  As we always say, the athletes are THE BEST part of our job.  We are excited for the 2nd year and all the plans we have.  Thank you again for being the best part of the best community in Washougal. 

It’s Open season!  The Open WODs will be held each Saturday for 5 weeks beginning February 23rd.  We will begin the 1st heat around 9 am and go until the last person finishes.  Remember, these WODs have scaled options already programmed and can be further scaled or modified to accommodate any/all athletes.  Show up each Saturday for a super-fun event and a great work out.  Please ask our coaches (or athletes who have done The Open before) any questions you have.  If you’re unsure, come watch and cheer on fellow athletes, then decide.  We always have room for a cheering section!  You can choose to sign up online to track and compare with others around the world, but you don’t have to in order to participate with us.  Either way, come get a work out in and have some fun! 

The 9 am Cardio-WOD (or Endurance WOD) has been well-received by these who have tried it.  It’s still CrossFit, just cardio-focused.  Come check it out and then tell everyone how awesome it is!  If you know someone who wants to try it out, they are welcome to sign up for a free class and join us.  This class is for ALL fitness levels and can be modified as needed, just like any other CrossFit work out. 

CONTEST!!  We will be selling Murph shirts this year by pre-order only.  There will be tanks and t’s.  Here is the contest part: the design of these shirts!  If you like creating or just want to give it a try, submit your idea!  You can email your design or drop it off at the box.  You can enter a design for one or both the tank and the t.  The winner(s) will receive a FREE Murph shirt of each style and bragging rights!  All design ideas must be submitted by March 15, 2019 to be eligible for the contest.  Winner will be announced by April 1, when pre-orders will begin.  We can’t wait to see all of your creativity!
