Ok all my fundraising friends. It’s getting to be that time again. Fight Gone bad 5 is at the end of September and I’m giving you all plenty of time to start your fundraising this year. Go to http://www.fgb5.org and get registered. Choose CrossFit Brand X for your Affiliate. The registration is different this year, but easier.

We will also be hosting Amazing Grace this year, at the end of October. This fundraiser supports Mammograms in Action for the detection and prevention of breast cancer. We have to show our support for the ladies, too! I will have more details around the middle of August for this event, but wanted you all to be aware of this fundraiser so you can ask for donations for this event, FGB or both.

I would like to see a better showing for our team this year, so at least get on there and get registered. 3-2-1, Go!

I’d love to see $5000 for FGB this year. If we have 17 people on the team, each person only needs to raise about $300. We can do this.

We have too many heroes lost and not enough workout days to commemorate them. I think it’s fitting to always think of the men and women in service, whether military or peace officers and public safety, as we do our workouts. A bit of motivation to throw a little of our sweat and maybe a drop of blood on the floor in their honor.

There is no substitute for good coaching.

Well, I was able to do it, and I’m computer illiterate. You are a computer genius. I’m sure you’ll get it to work.  LOL

Ok people. Let’s get this party started. Fight Gone Bad at Brand X on Saturday, September 25th. If you have not already signed up to participate, please go to http://www.fgb5.org and sign up. For those of us who have signed up, let’s get going on our fundraising. These are great causes and community is very important. If you raise $150 you will receive a FGB 5 t-shirt after the event. Let’s go!

Aright people. You’ve procrastinated long enough. There is a Team Captain contest for FGB today and I want to win! Go to http://www.fgb5.org and register right now! The Affiliate Captain with the highest increase in participant registration by 5:00pm today, wins. You don’t have to raise any money today, just register. C’mon folks. 3-2-1. GO!

A big Brand X thank you to all of you who came out on Saturday and did Fight Gone Bad. We raised about $3000 for some great causes and I’m really proud of all of your hard work. Also, thank you to those who just came in to do the WOD and suffer with friends.  grin  Great job everyone! Now, we will begin working on the “Amazing Grace” fundraiser for October. Details to follow.

BTW- the CrossFit community raised 1.5 million dollars with FGB. How cool is that?
