Hey there everyone, April is upon us (sort of took me by surprise with this whole sickness thing). Here is what you need to know: This Friday, April 10th the 5:30 class will be a “Member’s Choice” pick your own CrossFit Benchmark workout, either a “Hero” or a “Girl” and attack it. We can help you choose one, if this whole thing is still a little mysterious to you. We’d love a post to the comment section if you think you’ll be there, so we can be prepared for you all….
Saturday, April 18 our gym will be CLOSED. We know, we are sad too, but it is the REGIONAL QUALIFYING CROSSFIT GAMES, up in Flagstaff, AZ. This is where men and women from AZ, NV, UT and NM must compete in 3 workouts in order to qualify for the CrossFit Games in CA this summer. You may not participate in the summer Games unless you win a spot at the Regional Qualifiers. As far as I know, yours truly here, is supposed to be a judge up in Flag.
Saturday April 25 we will host our own CrossFit Game at 2:00. The workout will not be announced until 2:00pm. We want it to be a giant, raging, wild, shirt-tearing, tear-inducing, champagne-popping event. Really we want you all to get a taste of competing CrossFit style. We all do it a little bit every day in the workouts, but you are all so nice and polite and civilized. Let’s get a little fight on. Let’s WIN WIN WIN. Be the fastest, the strongest. We will set you up in heats so that you are truly competing against your peers. Even if you finished your fundamentals the day before, you will be ready. We might throw out some prizes if we are seriously impressed. Post here to the comments if you want to take up the challenge. Mostly it will be tons of fun and spectators/cheerleaders are most welcome. Just know that you might have to face Janice in the photo above. Sweet dreams.
I’ll be part of the April 25th fun. It is the week before I am getting hitched so I will be especially rowdy.
Congratulations Erik!!! I know two other people getting married on April 18th. It is spring time and the love in the air.
I will be there at the Friday “attack the girl” workout. I am looking forward to it. I will have to do some research as to which girl I would like to attack.
See you there…
congrats erik!! with your rowdiness and hopefully a big turnout the april 25th workout is going to be awesome!!!
Ron and I will be there for the games! Also if anyone needs a workout on Saturday we got a garden plot at the Benedictine Monastary community garden and we will be digging a two foot by ten foot hole starting at 8am. Since crossfitters are supposed to be able to shovel the most gravel of anyone here is your chance to give it a try! Call me if you want directions 326-8717
I forgot to add if you help I will give you part of the bounty from the garden!
I’ll be there on the 25th! Sounds like fun!!
Really, really, and I mean really hoping to be well enough to participate. Will be a judge if I have to be

Jen,
If your April isn’t already busy enough, we’d love to host your presentation on nutrition at the Seven Cups tea house one evening. Couple of our friends have recently used the tea house as a forum for lectures on health and fitness and I thought your expertise would be a great addition to the discussion. A mighty fine chance to local business to cross-promote and support each other, too! If you are interested, drop an email to Andrea, our scheduling guru. Her email is andrea@sevencups.com
Best regards,
Andrew
