Some gems from last year’s Open
Let’s get after it this year 😎🤙

Today ended up meaning a lot more to me than I was expecting. In order for today to come together, it took:
- a trio of friends who wanted to organize and program a 3-WOD partner comp on their own time
- 18 athletes who thought it sounded fun to get together with their gym family for an entire Saturday afternoon to participate in said competition
- a group of friends, family and fellow athletes who thought it sounded fun to come out on a Saturday afternoon and watch their friends throw down, or volunteer to judge
- a couple of thoughtful participants who provided an entire snack bar for the whole crowd without being asked to do so

What did all of this mean to ME? I saw an incredible community of people doing what they love with the people they love. Encouraging the teams next to them. Helping each other set up and break down workout stations. People encouraging and pushing each other and finding out what they’re capable of. As a gym owner, it was also a great reminder that not everything has to be a “formal” event. This came together in 2 weeks. I let go of the reins, became a participant instead of a coach, and had an absolute blast. I hadn’t competed in a very long time and had no plans to. But I saw a bunch of my members (some quite new), facing their fears and choosing to make this their first comp, and that inspired me. So when I was asked if I wanted to partner up, I couldn’t say no. I’m really glad I didn’t. To everyone who helped plan and execute, and to everyone who showed up to compete or cheer, thank you.

I’m really grateful that I didn’t let my tendency to control everything stop me from letting this become a thing. Now I have to imagine that this will become a tradition. All we need now is a name for the comp. Any ideas? 🙂
