This Friday we will have ONE WORKOUT at 9:00am! There will be a cookout to follow, so if you have a favorite dish or drink - bring it!
We will follow tradition of running a different Hero WOD every 4th as a Partner Workout. This year is Hero WOD “Helton”.

Helton, 24, of Monroe, Ga., assigned to the 6th Security Forces Squadron at Mac Dill Air Force Base in Tampa, Fla., was killed September 8th, 2009, while on a mission near Baghdad, Iraq, when an improvised explosive device detonated near his vehicle. Helton is survived by his mother, Jiffy Helton.

Our next t-shirt design has dropped! On the LRX Violet shirts, “AMAZIAH VS EVERYBODY” on the front and our new lion logo on the back! (Shout out to Dylan at MisFits Tattoo Co for the design!) T-Shirts are pre-order through June 9th and will be $30. Trust me, if you don’t get one of these you will have fomo. I’ll drop the design pics on our socials!
whitehall music festival - JULY 11th + 12th
July 11th and 12th is the White Hall Music Festival. I do not have all of the details on this yet, but I assume the back parking lot will be closed on both days. The plan is to still have regular class times and hangout/open gym after hours on Friday and Saturday, but as soon as I have more information, I will send out an update!

crossfit games - AUG 1st - 3rd
The 2025 CrossFit Games are August 1st through 3rd! I will be volunteering at the Games this year, so I will be out from July 26th - August 4th. The gym will still be open, but with potentially a slightly modified class schedule. As we get closer I will be sure to publish this! I am very excited to network and learn from the top people in CrossFit this week and am excited for all of the valuable information I will be able to bring back to our community!
new coaches - Kait + ABBY + LUKE
Lastly, I would like to officially congratulate all of the new Coaches on our Coaching Staff! I could not be more excited to bring on Kaitlyn, Abby, and Luke to our team.
Kait is a Level 2 CrossFit Coach coming to us with 6 years of experience. She also has her USAW Level 1 Certificate and is a Certified Pregnancy and Postpartum Coach!
Abby is currently an architecture student at FSU and has a long background in playing and coaching soccer. She has been CrossFitting with us for nearly 4 years, originally starting for soccer conditioning! She has been CrossFitting since and she earned her Online Level 1 early June!
Luke is a Paramedic and Fire Fighter for the City of Fairmont. Luke has been working out since high school and found CrossFit in early 2024. He instantly fell in love with it and the methodology. Luke earned his L1 last month and he could not be more excited to share his love of CrossFit and fitness with others!
