The only way to celebrate an epic era? With an epic party. 🎉

And what a night it was, seeing everyone all fancied up and decked out💃🏻. It was festive, it was celebratory, it was one hell of a time. Thank you to the best community ever for making this night one we’ll never forget. ❤️🖤

We’re kicking off our Thanksgiving Day festivities with a Turkey 🦃 Trot, getting a little sweat and a lot of fun in before the rest of the day’s celebrations.

If you couldn’t join us in person, consider joining the global HWPO community in participating in the HWPO Virtual 5K! 🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏾‍♂️Anyone can participate now through December 1st. Head to the HWPO website to learn more and sign up.

If you’re thinking about starting, just start.

The scariest part of getting started is walking through the doors. Once you take the first step in, we’ll take it from there, providing you with guidance to safely reach your goals over time, support to thrive a little outside of your comfort zone, and a community that simply cannot be beat. 🤝

3 spots left for Kids CrossFit tomorrow, and we can’t think of a better way to start off the weekend. 🥳

Get those little athletes signed in and ready to have some fun!

In recognition of Men’s Mental Health Awareness Day, 802 athletes tackled ‘Seek Help,’ a partner WOD designed by Jason Larocque, a CrossFit Coach at CrossFit Variance Plus in Beverly, MA and Associate Principal at an all-boys middle school.

Larocque’s 18 years of experience working with these middle-schoolers, combined with his own personal experiences, led him to recognize just how difficult it can be for many boys and men to share their struggles. 

“We often don’t allow men to be healthy with their emotions, and be vulnerable, and ask for help,” he said. 

All of this is why Larocque decided to start raising money each November for Movember, the annual event best known as the month men grow out mustaches. It’s a time to raise awareness for mental and physical health challenges that are predominantly specific to men.

“There are a whole host of men walking around each day with little to no help or resources because they just don’t know how to ask for it,” he said.

Our Foundations program underscores our commitment to creating a sense of community from Day 1️⃣, using a small group environment and one-on-one coaching to help each athlete gain familiarity with the movements and methodology of CrossFit.

You’ll start with small group classes, with focused attention and guidance through the essentials of CrossFit, proper techniques, and even mini workouts that will help you gain familiarity with the flow our classes, all while our coaches get to know you and your goals.

Thinking about switching up your health and fitness routine? Consider this your sign to try something new. 💫 Foundations enrollment starts every two weeks. Check our schedule for start dates and reach out with questions.

If you’ve been through Foundations already, we’d love to know: what’s something you wish someone would have told you before you walked through the doors of a CrossFit gym for the first time? 💬

🗣️ Spots are still available for the upcoming L1 Certificate Course, being hosted here at 802 CrossFit the weekend of December 14-15!
