CFC 1st Girls Night a HUGE Hit!!

Thursday, August 19th was our First Ladies Only Workout. Jennie and I have been talking about doing a girl's night for awhile....and it was worth the wait. I have seen pics from other CF Girl's Nights and was expecting somewhere between 10-15 girls to come out for the first one....While the RSVP's kept pouring in I was gettting more and more excited, so we planned a TEAM based WOD. At our final number we had 45 girls come run through the WOD with us....HOLY SMOKES!!!! I really can't explain the feeling I felt looking out and seeing all these women, our amazing clients and their friends coming to try CrossFit for the first time. Also to top it off we had Katie C. celebrating her birthday night with us.....now that's a true crossfitter!!
We had broken up in to Teams of 5 and total of 9 Teams! We kicked it off with 200M Indian Carry/run (which I loved because they had to work together right from the start, it broke the ice instantly). Then they can in and did 300 Squats, 200 Sit-ups, 100 Burpees, then finsihed with another 200m Indian Carry/run. They could break up the work anyway they wanted, so they could help out the newbies! But only person could work at a time, and they had to finish all reps of the first movement before moving on.
It was a pleasure watching and coaching these women through the WOD, but it was even more awesome to see their teammates cheering eachother on. Every single women had a smile on there face the whole night...THAT IS WHAT CROSSFIT IS ALL ABOUT!!!....PRICELESS!!!!


We wrapped up the night with some great wine and snacks which included some of Kaysie's kickass Paleo Bars!!! Best Bars on the planet, bar none...(lol)!!! Can't wait for her to market those suckers!
I was on cloud 9 for the whole night, slept maybe 2 hours! Thank you all for making the CFC 1st Girls Night so amazing! Can't wait for the next one!!!!


Here are some of my favorite pics of the night.
