Happy Anniversary!

Today marks the 2 year anniversary of CrossFit Moncton. On this date in 2008, a group of strangers met at a local school playground, completely unaware of the workout they were about to complete. Oh, how far we've come since then...There are a handful of people that remember what it was like working out at the park. It was rain or shine, hot or cold. And the bugs were hungry.I remember loading up the back of the Element with equipment (sand-filled basketballs, dumbbells, dowels, etc) and my portable whiteboard. We would go through a group warm-up, work on a skill, and then hit up the WOD. There were no bands for pullups (so we jumped). No boxes for box jumps (so we used benches). No bars with weights (so we used sticks). But anyone that was there would agree...it was still hard!If you haven't seen it yet, take a moment to read The Story of CrossFit Moncton.To celebrate the 2 years of CrossFit Moncton, the workout on Saturday, July 10th, will be held at Queen Elizabeth School playground at 10am.
