3rd Annual Fight Gone Bad Fundraiser

The 3rd Annual FGB fundraiser for prostate cancer will be held on September 27, 2008.  CrossFit NorCal will be a participating CrossFit affiliate and will be fielding an affiliate team.

We are hoping to raise at least $10,000.00 so let’s get our asses in gear and get some pledges!  The CF NorCal member who raises the most money in pledges will get a free month of Group classes! 

Click here to register with Athletes for a cure.  You will also need to register locally at the gym.

We will be playing with this workout in various iterations over the next several weeks in our group classes.  This will help us determine and designate our potential high scoring male and female for the scoring division. Read below for the official rules…
