Hi All,

Looks like we have another 3 weeks at least ahead of most of us in lock down – let’s make the best of it!  Below you will find details on this week’s schedule and some other news items.

Sadly, due to COVID-19, the SFN Expo has been cancelled which means no Glasgow Classic this year.  We are gutted but know that this is for the greater good.  As soon as we can bring our community back together we will do something spectacular – we have a 10 year anniversary to be celebrated!

We have entered our second week with the Wodify Rise Challenge and have some strong leaders – let’s continue to upload our scores and keep ourselves accountable!

During the past 2 months, we have also been working hard to continue to improve our virtual services to you and now are delighted to offer Home WOD as an online package to the many people who have no access to their gyms or any community support etc. We continue to run Silver’s classes via Zoom and realise that this is potentially the age bracket that has been hit hardest by COVID due to the length of time they are advised to self isolate. Daily exercise, good nutrition and a community are all great tools to fight off boredom, fatigue, depression and much more for all ages. We all have someone that we do doubt have been pestering to start CrossFit – this is a great time to get started and from the comfort of their own home! If you have that special someone – have them contact CFG email or jump onto our CFG Website if they would like more details.
