You're seeing them here first. Our new CrossFit Omaha t-shirts. These ones will be available for sale as well as given to the winners of the Midwest CrossFit Challenge (hopefully they arrive in time). What I am doing now is asking you guys which colors are your favorites, deep red with silver and black, navy blue with mustard and black, grey with silver and black, mustard with silver and black, and/or black with mustard and black. Not pictured is black with silver and black. We are thinking of ordering two colors so in the comments I want you to let me know what are your two favorite ones. Also take this as an official pre-order and if you want one let me know your size. The ladies shirts will be fitted while the guys will be a lightweight shirt that hopefully will be an athletic fit. I have a feeling these will be going fast so get your order in now by placing your size in the comments section. I have yet to find out how much the shirts will cost us but you can be sure that we will keep the price close to our cost as we want to get as many out there as possible. Once this first batch is gone the price will go up. Hope you like them.
Changes to Midwest CrossFit Challenge
Joe, Candice, and I sat down and talked and felt because how much feedback we are getting that the dates for the event are changing. We want to be able to invite people from out of town so we are now going to hold the challenge over 2 days as opposed to 4 days. The new dates are April 5th and April 26th. This will give those that are coming in from out of town the opportunity to participate without having to come into town more than twice. I have updated the event website concerning the appropriate changes. It will also give us an opportunity to make the post bar-b-que's bigger and better as now we only have to worry about two days. We have commitments from Hy-Vee, the Juice Stop, Whole Foods, and McGuire Dental Group for prize donations and/or food donations for this cool event plus we are working on other businesses as well to help out in some way or fashion. I have taken down the link to the flier as I have to make corrections to it but it will be back up sometime tonight. Hopefully this makes it easier on some of you that may be coming from out of town/state or have prior plans before hearing about it. Contact us through email and/or phone if further information is needed.
Fight Gone Bad
There was some sick fitness being developed last night. Both 5:30 and 6:30 groups were rockin and a rollin and I have to commend everyone for their hard work. If you haven't already, post your score to the comments section of last nights WOD post as we will be doing this one again. It may be in two weeks, 2 months, or 5 months but you can be sure you will see it again.
WOD
There will only be one workout, but you as a group get to choose which one it is.
2 rounds for time
800 meter run
3 minutes rest
or
100 Pullups for time
Workout Demo (Greg A.)...[wmv][mov]
Pullups can be done strict, kipping, or jumping (150 reps), while the run must be executed at the highest intensity you can withstand.
Large - 1 count
198-Fight Gone Bad Score
Hate to miss tonight, but I am off for a whole day of NCAA hoops at the Qwest. Have a good one guys.
My favorite color for the shirt is gray, followed by the blue and red in a dead heat in 2nd place.
100 pullups for time looks awesome. unfortunately, i'm taking another rest day as i feel crappy.
Medium
Glad to see we finally made the mainsite.
I vote for the red shirt then grey and then black. And I will take one red and one grey in a medium probably. I would opt for the runs tonight seeing as it would take me around 10 days to get 100 pullups.
Congrats on making tha mainsite!
I think i'll vote for the 800 run today as well. I have to agree w/Angela, it would probably take me 10 days as well, especially after doing Fran the other day!!
See everyone tonight!
I also think the black will be wicked, so put me down for one of those too!!
Nice work.
I will be at the games tonight so no Crossfit tonight!! Have a great time, see ya Friday!
Time: Round 1 3:35
Round 2 3:33
Great job everyone! Hope you all have a Happy Easter!!
Round Two: 4:02
Round two 3:46
I like the blue-red-grey. I will take 2 large in whatever you order.
14:??, I am actually glad I did pullups as we haven't done them much lately, can already feel it.
Round two - 4:49
I managed to keep up with Crystal pretty well on the first round, but the second round killed me.
I got my ass handed to me today by 100 pull ups. I finished in just over 18 minutes. My hands hurt. On a positive note though, I got 10 pullups in a row for the first time today, so I'm still really happy with the workout. I'm dreading tomorrow though because I know I have to do FGB. See you all tomorrow!!
I like the red shirt or the gray...i'm thinking women's L but I'll check to see what the one i have now is
100 pullups for time = 4:53
black with mustard and black for me in a medium
