Back again for 2025, we proudly present to you, the Great Attendance Challenge of 2025. It’s simple. We challenge you to attend 225 group classes at CrossFit Roots in 2025.  Why? Because consistency matters. A simple daily effort with solid overall effort will make one of the largest lasting impacts on your long-term fitness and health. So here’s how it works. Go to class. Sign-up in Zen Planner. Check in when you arrive at the shop. We’ll tally your progress throughout the year and let you know if you’re on track in the monthly newsletter.  All group classes and personal training sessions count toward your total. Open Shop, workouts done at home, a hike – they don’t count. Don’t even ask. Sorry, not sorry.  What happens if you do hit that 225 mark? We’re glad you asked. For all of you who earn that magical number of 225 – we’ll enter...Read more
