Tuesday's WOD & the don't panic button



First, no one panic! I understand there are currently some issues with equipment and quality trainers; it will get resolved! Remember, nothing significant is ever easy; it takes work and there are inevitably missteps. The Centurion CrossFit community is strong and this is merely a hiccup. I will be back next week and will work to get the situation resolved - Foundations will resume and I hope to get CF Kids back in some form as well. There are Level 1 trainers coming back with me to help with classes. I have been training people here in Iraq for the last year and several are ready to get their Level 1 cert under their belt and help at the box.

Great things are on the horizon - Sectionals are coming up and we have people working hard to qualify for individual competition and team competition; we will register to host the events each week and make an event out of it! We have the CrossFit Endurance cert in April, Greg Amundson's Goal Setting Seminar (which is free) and I am talking to Coach Burgener about an Olympic Lifting Cert in early April. Lots of opportunities to grow as athletes and trainers!! Plus, Greg Glassman has expressed and interest in visiting the box this spring! - you won't want to miss an opportunity to meet Coach!

So, everyone just hang in there, have some patience and get ready to do bigger and better things in 2011 than we have ever done!

It was very hard to see the Box empty today...i know it's a hiccup, and i have faith that everything will be taken care of.

I'm very upset about not being able to be around for all the greatness coming up. You've got some great things lined up for some awesome people. I sure hope it all is well received and people really see just how great Centurions are. I'll be keeping up the best I can from downrange!
