Andy MacIntyre, long time member of CFG, will soon be undertaking his first ultra-marathon for a good cause.  Please show your support and sponsor him, a form can be found on the office counter "On the 3rd of August 2013 along with 2 others I will be taking part in my first ultra marathon, The Devil O' The Highlands, which is 43 miles following the second half of the West Highland Way from Tyndrum to Fort William.   We hope to raise some money for a local charity that has special meaning to one of my fellow runners.  Any donation no matter how small is greatly appreciated. Below is the link to the Just giving page and there is also a sponsor sheet at the reception in the gym.   I thank you for your support. The Zak Scott Braveheart Foundation was set up in memory of our very own ‘braveheart’, our son, grandson, brother, nephew and friend, Zak, in September 2011. The Foundation aims to provide help and grant small wishes of children and young people with a heart disorder who are on the cardiac surgical waiting list at Yorkhill Sick Children’s Hospital. With your help they and their families can experience the joy and excitement of having a small wish granted to give strength and hope for a speedy recovery. We also aim to provide a journal for each child/young person receiving treatment from the cardiac team with the hope to give some comfort through documenting their own personal journey. [...]

Next Monday we will be running a fundraising WOD to help one of Scotland’s rising stars of Olympic lifting compete in Austria. Colette Will is currently the British senior and junior champion, Scottish Open and Western Districts champion and placed 2nd at the International Womens Grand Prix. Colette has helped many of you to develop your own skills by assisting Ray on the Tuesday night OL sessions and we would love to get as many of you involved as possible. Olympic lifting is gaining popularity in Scotland with around a 10% increase in participation year on year. CrossFit Glasgow has been instrumental in developing the sport by hosting the Scottish Open competition for the past two years and by getting literally hundreds of athletes cleaning, jerking and snatching as part of their day to day training. However, weightlifting remains a sport with relatively little investment at a grassroots level and the cost to individual athletes to compete in domestic and international competition can be prohibitively expensive. Please help to push Scottish sport to a position of international excellence by taking part. The WOD will be “Grace” (30x Ground to overhead for time 42.5kg/62.5kg) and if you wish to compete against one of the most promising young talents in the UK please donate £5 in the box on the day. There is no obligation to sponsor and the WODs will run as normal but we would be very grateful if you could help fly the flag for a great friend to [...]

Due to rising popularity there has been some minor changes made to the Fundamentals.  Basics class continues to run all day on Wednesdays however that is the only class that will operate that day.  We have moved 2 hours of Fundamentals to Friday in order to provide a better service to you. The updated schedule is now available on the Fundamentals page
