The uptake for our inhouse throwdown on 22nd August has been huge (our members are so enthusiastic!) so we weren’t surprised that when Coach Sam secured us some team spots for the Suffolk Games, they filled quick!
That means the weekend after, on 28th August, Colchester Fitness Centre is making the trip to Trinity Park in Ipswich. Last count, we’ve got 15 teams of four; two male, two female.
The teams event will total some 350 competitors from around 20 different CrossFit boxes and gyms from all over East Anglia and beyond. Because it’s such a fun competition, there’s always a supportive, happy crowd to spectate and enjoy the vendors and sponsors. For those newer to CrossFit, it’s a perfect first comp, and a fun way to meet new, like minded people.
Our guys are packing up picnics and drinks, dusting off the gazebos and deck chairs, and getting ready for a fun day of functional fitness. The coaches are getting involved, too, and while this comp is DEFINITELY about having fun and hanging out… our lot do have a bit of a legacy on the Suffolk Games podium.
