Cool!

So CF Kids will be at the Arnold again next year. Excellent!
Hard to see how you can top last year, but I know with the CF Kids HQ team on the job, you’ll find a way.

Hi Craig - thanks so much for posting this.

Yes I would love a little help from the local Crossfit community!

My name is Chris Coxon, from Crossfit Christchurch in New Zealand -  http://www.crossfitchristchurch.com

My decision to attend the CFKids Cert this weekend was very last minute, and with some difficult times at home during the last couple of weeks I’m a little humbled to admit that my trip organisation hasn’t worked out as planned so far.

The Ramona Village Inn is booked out, and other accommodation options seem difficult without transport. My efforts to try and find other Cert attendees to share transport / accommodation with have so far been in vain.
Worse case I will hire a rental car - I’m hesitant to do so, knowing how tired I will be after flying from the other side of the world…. then driving on the opposite side of the road!

It would be fantastic to share transport and accommodation from San Diego with other Cert Attendees. Or perhaps a couch / floor with a local /Brand X member?

I promise I’m friendly, tidy and have some interesting stories to share about 7.1 magnitude earthquakes in the South Pacific, and my journey into Crossfit… (Biochemistry, to professional circus performing….  to Crossfit)

I’ll be arriving in San Diego around 3pm on the 2nd of December…  best way to contact me is via email:
.(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).

I’m leaving Sydney shortly and will check emails again once I arrive in the US.

Any help from the Crossfit Community would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

This is a really late follow up to say ‘yes’ I did make it!
The certification, the BrandX family, the other attendies, the entire experience was amazing.
I highly recommend the CrossfitKids Certification grin

God Bless,
