Active Rest

Another great opportunity to spend time trying something different.  Get out (no matter how hot it is.) Run the stair at Swallows Cliff, take a run on the lakefront, swim in the lake.  The options are endless, just spend the day away and prepare for a big finish for the week.

News and Notes:

Madathon is still happening July 21.  10:45 heat is closed, but I’m sure 11 has some space.  It’s gonna be a good time out in Valpo.  Come on, what do you have to lose?

Looks like July 28 will be the Alsip pool team WOD.  We have the pool from 10 am till noon.  We can warm up select teams and get started by 10:40.  Leaving the rest of the time to swim and play.  Come out and bring your family, it will be a fun, fun day.

We are in the planing stages of our Paleo challenge.  We will start August 6th with weigh in and a time trial WOD.  This will serve as a supplemental test to see if you have maintained strength or gained strength.  It can also be used as a tie breaker.  We will have a ash prize with a buy in of $10.

We are working with CrossFit E-Town to plan a Crosstown WOD competition.  Not sure the event or the venue, but it’s gonna be great.

Please consider writing a review on yelp for us.  We would love to see and hear your feedback about the box.  If you don’t want to publish on yelp, consider writing on our “testimonial ” page.

We would like to hear your ongoing goals and ambitions with us.  We want to help you achieve greatness weather it be weight loss, weight gain, to prepare for a run, tri, or something you have never done before.  If interested, please email team@crossfitbeverly.com and let us know your goals and we will work with you to achieve them.

If no one heard, Alex proposed to Brittany this weekend, so if/when you see them wish them all the best.  They truly deserve it as they are an amazing couple who inspire me every day. And if you haven’t done so already  please consider a donation to their charity The Special Operations Warrior Foundation.  Click the link on the right side of the page for details.

Thanks everyone.  Keep up the great work.  I am genuinely impressed by every one of you.  Your desire to excel makes me try and be better then yesterday, every day.
