    6am, 12pm, and 5pm classes rocked our first workouts back at the gym in 76 days! Today’s workout, “George Floyd,” involved 612 lunges, so a lot of knees were taken in his memory. #blacklivesmatter #blackouttuesday One of the greatest aspects of CrossFit, and each box that practices it, is community. It’s the foundational element of how we build our gym, and the support bolsters each and every member. As a group that so clearly appreciates the concept, we need to broaden our view of what our community is. It isn’t just the band of people that come into the gym — It is our neighborhood, our city, our country, our world. It is every one of our responsibilities to recognize and rally against injustices that affect others in our various communities. George Floyd was a man whose life was needlessly and cruelly taken from him just days ago. This tragedy was not the first of its kind, nor the hundredth, nor the thousandth. Millions of Black Americans have lost their lives at the hands of a system that was built and maintained to suppress them. Seeing it in high definition may just be opening the eyes of some, but this is not a new problem. CrossFit hero WODs typically are used to memorialize men and women that have fallen in the line of duty. However, in this moment - as true as it has always been - every life is precious. George Floyd’s life was no different, and he deserves to be so honored. On Wednesday, for our first outdoor workout, we will be doing a workout dedicated to George Floyd. Thank you to @thepowerhousemn for creating the workout, and thank you to @danielle_mannchen for bringing it to my attention. 612 - Minneapolis area code 46 - George Floyd’s age 5/25/20 - The day he died #georgefloyd #justiceforgeorgefloyd #justiceforfloyd #blacklivesmatter 🙌🙌🙌 Members only. Check your emails for details. Thank you to all that gave the ultimate sacrifice. Thank you to those that have served, and to those that continue to serve. We normally commemorate this day with “Murph,” but the gym will hold off on that workout until we are able to do it together (in small groups). And, on that day, we will be thankful, once again. 🔥🔥WEEK 1 OF NEW PROGRAMMING CYCLE STARTED TODAY!🔥🔥 Everyone can do these workouts- lots of different equipment and scaling modifications provided. Please post your score to SugarWOD! #workoutathome #homefitness #wemissthegym #stayfit
