Here we go! Today's the day! Every Friday from now until September 25, we will be "Fight Gone Badding". Today is the original, CrossFit original, classic, benchmark workout. The next 5 weeks at CFLA will feature versions submitted by Ross, Chad, Julia, and Tanya plus one from last year that we think is particularly good!

Here's the deal...
1. This event is truly about raising money for:
Livestrong,
Wounded Warrior Project, and the
CrossFit Foundation.

To participate in the fundraiser (and our FINAL EVENT on September 25), please go to http://www.fgb5.org, get registered, and when you do, join the CrossFit LA Team. You must raise a minimum of $150 to participate.

2. We'd love to have over 100 CFLA members participating this year... we'd also love to have your friends or family members who want to fundraise AND try the workout, participate. All they have to do is register as described above, raise $150, and attend a minimum of 2 of our Fight Gone Bad Friday workouts... their first is free, and the second costs our normal $25 drop in fee.

3. Whether you've done the Fight Gone Bad before, or not... this time of the year is REALLY awesome! The workout variations are hard (as you might expect) but really interesting... and will really prepare you for the final event on the 25th. This year, we'll be teaming up with Dogtown CrossFit, CrossFit Hollywood, Paradiso CrossFit, and CrossFit High Voltage for a HUGE finale... will be a fantastic day!

So here's an invitation - join us! Every Friday for the next 6 weeks... believe me, you won't regret it!
