DON'T BE A CHUMP...

THE CROSSFIT GAMES SEASON IS HERE - HOW DO I GET INVOLVED?
The 2013 Reebok CrossFit Games season is a worldwide, three part competition in search of the fittest man and woman on the planet.  The ‘Road to the Games’ is comprised of the CrossFit Open, Regionals, and then finally the world championships, the CrossFit Games.
The season kicks off with the Open, the most inclusive competition in the world. The top 48 athletes and teams in each region from the Open will move onto Regionals. The best athletes and teams at Regionals will compete at the CrossFit Games, the world’s premier test to find the Fittest on Earth.

The Open is a five-week competition that will determine which individual athletes and affiliate teams will continue on to compete at the regional level. Beginning Wednesday, March 6th a workout will be released every Wednesday for each of the five weeks of the Open. A registered participant has until the following Sunday at 8PM (EST) to complete the workout and submit his or her score. An athlete may do the workout as many times as they want to try and get the best score possible. Within CrossFit JAX, an athlete’s score must be validated by a judge (any of your coaches or intern coaches) before it can be submitted online. Each week, the top 3 male and top 3 female scores will comprise a total score for CFJAX. Participants will be able to check out the online leader boards to see where they rank globally, regionally, or even within their own box (be sure to click the link at the end of this post for an awesome "how to" video). 

The Open is a GREAT first exposure to the CrossFit competition scene. Like we said, it is the most INCLUSUVE competition in the world! There are no perquisites to qualify – all you need to do is register at games.crossfit.com, and choose CrossFit JAX as your affiliate.

Every Saturday throughout the Open, a local affiliate will be hosting the workout of that particular week. All competitors, spectators, friends and family are invited to come be a part of this awesome community event! You’ll get the chance to go head to head with some of the best around. Or just come out and watch a kick-ass throwdown!

As your coaches, we could not be more proud and privileged to call you our athletes. Our community is the best around! And whether you have goals to be competitive or not, this is the BEST way to get involved in our community and be a part of something amazing. Find out why CrossFit is so unique and why it is changing the name of fitness world wide.
