So we are off. Today Laura, Courtney, Rebecca, Aaron, Brett, Ty and myself are all off to represent Reebok CrossFit 306 at the Canadian CrossFIt Regional in Vancouver. The Regionals are the second step after the Open to qualify for the CrossFit Games. As a new gym to have qualified a full team plus an individual is an incredible feat. Considering that 66 000 athletes began the Worldwide Open in February and that only 2000 remain at the regional level, this further brings validity to the quality of our athletes, coaches and our community. The only way that winning teams are built is when they have a great community behind them. I know for a fact that since our inaugural day on Dec 1st we were building something special. As we had add more members to our community on a daily basis we have stuck to our pricinples of community and technical mastery above all else. Thanks everyone for pushing everyday and making 306 my favorite place to spends most of my waking hours.
As our coaches will be gone through the weekend, Ryan and Corey have offered to step in and take over the coaching responsibilities for Thursday and Friday. Ryan and Corey have full time carreers and many other commitments so for them to help us out is greatly appreciated.
If you are interested on following our athletes progress through the weekend you can follow us on Facebook. Stef Hughs, a marketing guru by day, and a CrossFitting Socialite by night has offered to keep the updates frequent for us.
Thanks everyone and we will see you on Monday.
