Details on the Event This Saturday

CrossFit Roots will host the last workout of the CrossFit Open Series, workout 11.6, this Saturday from 9-12.  Please sign-up on MBO to reserve a spot in a heat!

We could get all sad and depressed that this six week series is coming to a close, but we’d rather go out with a BANG!  So come on up to Roots for some pull-ups, thrusters, rotisserie chicken, and party afterward.

Just like last time we’ll have BooBars, Silk Pure Almond Milk, and coffee from The Cup in addition to Nick n’ Willy’s rotisserie chicken!

How much does it cost? No charge.  Donations appreciated.

How do I sign-up? You will sign-up for a specific hour on MBO. Once you arrive at Roots you’ll list yourself in one of four heats that will go in that hour.  This way, athletes can choose to compete with a friend etc.  The time table for each hour will look like so:
:00 – :20, open warm-up
:20-:30, :30-40, :40-:50, :50-:00, 10 minute heats

What all is going on? CrossFit Open Workout 11.6 AND a chicken pot luck lunch.

What is the chicken pot luck lunch? We’ll provide delicious rotisserie chicken from the one and only Nick n’ Willy’s. Please bring a salad to share if you would like to eat something in addition to chicken!  Paleo salads much appreciated by all of the current Paleo Challenge participants;)

Do you need any help? We are in need of judges and volunteers to bring salads to share.  Please email us if you would like to judge or bring a salad.  And thanks!

Roots Crew – who’s planning on coming?  Who’s excited for chicken?  Who thinks they can get the most Roots athletes to compete who didn’t participate last time?  Post to comments.

And don’t forget!  5/3/1 Cycle 2 starts tomorrow!!  MAKE SURE to sign-up on MBO for tomorrow’s class to reserve a spot for the next five weeks.  Details here.
