Hi All,



A few things on the go this week.  First of all: outstanding effort in meeting up with one another in various parks around the city!  The news we’ve been waiting for all week has finally been announced; we can now work with unlimited groups of 4 people per day.  We are in the process of working out the details of when and where, stay tuned for details to come early this week. 

However, there is some sad news for us all: Khi Leonard, who has been a big part of CrossFit Glasgow for many years, leaves us this September to start an exciting new chapter of his life in New Zealand.  He joined our team starting with Mobility classes, over 5 years ago and then moved into Arch 1 as a trainer 3 years ago.  He has been a tremendous asset to our community and always brought such great energy, enthusiasm, sarcasm, laughter and often tears to his classes.  Over the years working at CFG, he has developed as a trainer by taking on the CrossFit L2, Gymnastics course and recently has passed his CrossFit L3, held by only 1% of all CrossFit Trainers worldwide.  Outstanding effort Khi!  He is hoping to continue his CrossFit journey in New Zealand, we wish him the absolute best and also his wife Raz as she settles into her new Physio job . You will be missed by all.  

Unfortunately, due to COVID, our hands are tied at the moment for planning a big leaving party.  Instead, Khi will be doing a ‘Park Tour’, which he already started last week.  Please look out for posts on Facebook Members page for these days as this is a great chance to see his pretty face before he leaves!

ACCOUNTABILTY CHALLENGE

With just over a month before we can open our doors, let’s start really thinking about nutrition, sleep and daily activity.  Attached is our accountability sheet.  Look out for details on our FB Members page for a WhatsApp link to join the group.  Together we can all give each other that accountability we so desperately need!
