Halloween Workout Huge Success!!!!!

The CrossFit Kids Halloween Challenge was a HUGE success! We had 13 kids & teens come out for a pre-Trick-or-Treating workout! They used their nutrition knowledge to sort food pictures into "Protein," "Carb" and "Fat" categories for points, rowed for calories and navigated an obstacle course, and finally raced with pumpkins. More pictures coming soon. Congratulations to Christine and Chase who came in first place and Spencer and Caleb who took second.

Kids Nutrition Seminar and Taste Test

Thanks to everyone who came to our first ever CrossFit Kids Nutrition Meeting and Taste Test.

The results are in from the taste test voting:

Ham beat Turkey
Cashews beat Pecans, and Almonds
Cherub Tomatoes and Cucumbers tied to beat Orange Bell Peppers

Here are your top entries for the CrossFit Kids T-shirt design contest. Remember it is the concept that we are judging not the artwork. The graphic artist at the t-shirt place will clean it all up and make it look very professional. Vote by putting the # of the one you pick in the comments of this blog post.

"Deck of Cards"

CrossFit Kids and Teens WOD "Deck of Cards." Every suit represents an exercise. For example, Hearts are sit ups, Spades are squats, Clubs are mountain climbers, and Diamonds are push ups. Draw a card from the deck, do the corresponding exercise for each card. The 8 of Diamonds means 8 push ups, the Jack of Spades means 10 squats, etc.

T-shirt designs are due by today at 5:30. Be watching this blog for the top designs and to place your vote.

Kids Nutrition Meeting and Taste Test: Monday, October 19th 4:30-5:00 at Central.

Kids Halloween Extreme Challenge: Saturday October 31st, 10-11am at Central.
