Community

We are a group of like minded folks spending a bit of time together several days a week.  If you look around, we are all looking for something similar but all slightly different.  Some of us are seeking a limit of performance each day that surpasses the previous day.  Some are looking for a method of improving their performance at a specific sport be it running, climbing, skiing, or hiking.  Some of us are just looking for a community of like minded people to be with for a few hours a week.  Whatever the reasons, we can find them during our time together.

We celebrate victories often as evidenced this past month by the many personal records and new achievements so many of our members achieved.  And how did we go about it?  Hard work, encouragement from those watching and cheering, and a drive and determination to accomplish a goal.  Our own version of community support.

CrossFit is a worldwide network of Affiliated gyms full of like minded people who get together for the same reasons we do. Around the world, Olympic athletes and beginners are in the same places doing workouts to the best of their abilities in order to achieve their goals.  During the past year we have shared events and playtime with other CrossFitters from Durango, Telluride, Montrose, and Grand Junction.  We have even traded coaching days with CrossFit Telluride for a change of pace, a change of coaching styles, and a glimpse of a different coaching skill set.

In fact, on March 12 between 12 and 3,  we have the opportunity to go to CrossFit Telluride and have a gymnastic playday.  Did you know they have high rings, a spring floor, a vault, uneven bars, and a TumblTrak?  Want to play and feel like a kid again?  Want to learn some new skills?  If you are a big strong guy, want to be told by a 96 pound girl to suck it up and quit being a sissy and go for it? The opportunity awaits and it is up to you to seize it.

We are so happy to have each of you share a few hours a week with us and help improve our lives.  You all know that the workout is important but so are those around us.  We are having Bring a Friend days on March 6 and 7.  If you know someone who wants to give it a shot or you just wish they could see what you get to do a few hours a week, bring them with you and let them have a glimpse of who we are and what we do.
