CFCV pulls for a good cause

The event, organized by Logan City Police, Cache County Sheriff’s Office and the Utah Highway Patrol, welcomed anyone who wants to test their strength to join a team and take turns pulling a 40,000 pound truck over 20 feet for the fastest time.  Crossfit Cache Valley was one of the sponsors and fielded 3 teams.  We were proud to support and help raise funds for Special Olympics Utah.

May 8th 5K and 10K Run

What an amazing community we have at CrossFit.  I thank each and every one of you for your commitment and being a part of something different.  One of the elements that makes CrossFit so effective is that the group brings the energy level through both competition and support to a level that you can’t achieve any other way.  You guys are what it’s all about!  (For those who are interested, the race results are posted here.)
