The 2020 CrossFit Open (20.3 Update!)

This Open we’re changing things up. Instead of having the CGO Event every Saturday morning we’re moving to Friday evenings.

(Throwback to 18point4)

Introducing FCF FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS (FNL):

  • EVERY FCF MEMBER IS WELCOME TO THE EVENT!
  • On Fridays all classes will run CGO workouts. This week is 20.2 (see below)
  • The Throwdown Event begins with a team huddle at 5:30pm (and again at 6:30pm) to cover the preparation and any specific technique standards and judging particulars.
  • It’s still Champagne Friday so bring something to share and celebrate with for post-workout!
  • Each week we’ll celebrate after everyone completes the workout.
    • 20.1 on 10/11 will be a BBQ at the gym
    • 20.2 on 10/18 will be at Optimism Brewing beginning at 8pm
    • 20.3 on 10/27 will be a BBQ at the gym. Bring something to share! We’ll have the grill on.
    • 20.4 on 11/2, and 20.5 on 11/9 TBD.
  • CGO make-ups or redo’s will happen on Sunday as long as you provide your own judge.
  • Otherwise keep your eyes on the blog for workout descriptions and updates!
