The paint is ugly, the floor is stained, the carpet needs to be taken out and burned and there is a wall where the pull-up bar needs to go. But it’s all ours.

Yes it’s true. CrossFit Redmond signed a lease for 2,160 square feet of space this morning. The goal is to be open for classes fulltime the week of October 4th. A lot needs to happen between now and then but that’s half the fun. Right? We have ninety 4×6 stall mats (each weighing 90 pounds) being delivered the 1st of October, a fabricator advising on pull-up bar designs, a huge Costco list of supplies, ideas for furniture, changing “rooms”, signs, storage and we have 54 shiny new plates and more barbells coming to join the party.

This is a monumental day for CrossFit Redmond and it frankly would never have happened without your commitment to developing uncommon fitness. I think I just called you all weird. Well you are, who do you know who can do the stuff you do (in your warm ups even) without CrossFit? Anyways. It’s ugly, it will be pretty(er) and it will always be ours.

Now do the workout!

I can’t even see the rope anymore.” Move your wrists really fast and your arms as little as possible. They really aren’t hard to do, just watch Cara, you’ll be amazed.
