In case you haven't heard, we have big news about one of our own. Kate Rawlings qualified to compete in the 2010 CrossFit Games to be held outside Los Angeles, CA this summer. She is one of only 50 women in the world to qualify for this event. A bunch of us traveled to Logan, OH two weekends ago to watch her compete in the CrossFit Central East Regional Qualifier put on by Rogue Fitness. In addition to Staci, Jessie and myself, Kate's parents Bill and Rita, Wayne, Tricia, Ryan, Cassie, Jillian, Kevin and Larry turned out to cheer her on. Many others from the local affiliates Crossfit Legacy, CrossFit CLE and The CrossFit Box rooted her on as well. Kate has been training with us from the very beginning, starting with the free workouts in the Metroparks long before we opened the box. Kate found us early on, as did Troy, Cassi and Scott. That was three years ago this month. You can read more about her journey on her blog, www.katerawlings.com Have a slow afternoon? Here are a bunch of videos to kill some time. I'm caught up posting the results from this week's workouts on the website, you can find them here on our CrossFit Workout of the Day Page. You can find even more NEW pictures loaded on our CrossFit Cleveland Fan Page here. You do not need to log in or have a Facebook account to view this page. |
| Memorial Day Workout - Revised schedule We will be open for one group workout at 9:00am on Memorial Day, Monday May 31st, 2010. For those of you die-hard CrossFitters, Kate Rawlings will be hosting this single WOD with doors opening at 9:00am. Please be there on time or risk a chance at only being able to watch. We will be open normal hours on Saturday May 29th, including the 11:00am Basic Intro Workout. We wish all of you a safe and happy holiday and hope to see you often this summer. |
| Membership Waiting List for 5:00P.M. & later workouts We're growing steadily and have reached capacity during the 5:00pm, 5:30pm, 6:00pm and 6:30pm workouts.

Existing members will be able to attend any workouts they choose as long as their membership remains current. It's important to know that if you take a month or two off, you will be subject to the waiting list upon your return. We do have expansion plans in the works that include additional workout times and more space. Please stay tuned for details. Thanks to everyone for helping us grow this fantastic community. |
CF Cleveland's Organic Produce Co-Op
Staci and Tricia go down to the Cleveland Food Terminal every other week and purchase organic fruits and vegetables by the case. They get a boat load of food for not a whole lot of money, then they split it all up into 6 equal shares. They spend $300 total, making each 'share' cost $50. The minimum buy-in is $25 for 1/2 share of produce. If you are interested, please add your name to the sign-up sheet at the gym or email staci@crossfitcleveland.com. The next trip will be the week of May 24th. Staci will announce the exact day by Monday. You can see a few pictures of the past couple batches of food here on our Organic Food Co-op post on our website. |
Advocare products
Staci and I are starting to get picked on for being 'crack' pushers. The fact is the Advocare products we're carrying really work and people are loving their results. Never before have we considered offering supplements because we never knew which brands worked and which were just scams. Advocare works. Skip Chase of Mount Baker CrossFit, Olympic weightlifting coach Mike Burgener and Jeremy Thiel of CrossFit Central are all very respected members of the CrossFit community. They are all big fans of Advocare products, mainly because they work. When we learned that these three guys were involved, we agreed to take a closer look. We feel it an obligation to bring our members anything that can improve their results. Advocare happens to fit in perfectly. Hardly a sell-out as some label it. Many other top Crossfit gyms endorse and use Advocare products. This stuff really helps, and everything comes with a 100% money-back guarantee. You can even bring back a completely empty container and tell us you didn't like it and you get your money back. That's a pretty impressive guarantee. If you are interested in learning more about their weight loss and performance enhancing products, ask one of us. You can also learn more about their products online at Staci's Advocare website |
