CrossFit D-Day

Another season done and dusted. The 2026 season was the best yet, we are already looking forward to the 2027 season - no doubt even bigger and better for the 10th Anniversary 🎉

Great success all around from our crew - super proud coach and athletes! We're also thankful for all the support, near and far, over the weekend - and through every step of the season as well 💚

(Just a quick post tonight, but definitely more content to come of all the action!)

✨ Roster 2026 ✨

Tomorrow is what all the training has been for - the Masters HQ Final!

We're here. We're checked in. We're fed. (And very ready for bed.)

Let's go 💪

Quit the waiting.

Waiting for Monday.
Waiting for a less busy time of life.
Waiting to be fitter.

Become willing to start even if it's not perfect.

Willing to start on a random Wednesday. (Whatever tomorrow is!)
Willing to 'only' come once or twice a week. (It's still better than zero!)
Willing to feel 'unfit'. (You become fit by doing this!)

And the biggest one:
Willing to fail.

No, you won't be perfect straight away.
Yes, some movements you will need to learn.
But being willing to try, and being willing to fail, is how we learn.

Come see for yourself that we aren't perfect, we're just willing!

Happy Anniversary to our awesome D-Day members Hazel Sligting, Olivia the Osteopath and Coach Glenn Milz for the month of August.

We love and appreciate you! 😍

A yearly MastersHQ tradition fostered by Grunta & Pip from CrossFit D-Day - at the finals each year someone is chosen who has shown mana throughout the competition, on and off the floor.

The toki is a taonga, a treasure, holding spiritual and cultural mana. Representing strength, resilience, leadership, courage. All things needed to excel in training, competition and life.

The toki starts it's journey from Te Tai o Poutini, the West Coast of the South Island of Aotearoa, where it then arrives in Ōtautahi, Christchurch, to be carved and wait for it's kiatiaki, guardian, until it is gifted to it's chosen recipient at the finals in Melbourne, Australia.

While the toki awaits the final leg of it's journey it hangs front and centre in the walls of CrossFit D-Day, being imbued with all the positive energy, strength, resilience and spiritual blessings from the coaches and community.
