Team SBK at the NY Ragnar Relay!
Want to run from Woodstock to NYC? You don't have to go it alone,
Crossfit South Brooklyn is putting together one or more relay teams
for the New York Ragnar Relay!  Teams of 12 will race 178 miles from
Woodstock to NYC.  Each team member will complete 3 legs over the
course, legs range from 2.7 to 8.3 miles and are of varying
difficulty.  Total distance per runner ranges from 11.6 to 19.7 miles.
 This will be an unforgettable experience!  But there is a lot to talk
about in order to gather our team(s) together.  If you are interested
in attending an informational session to learn more contact
sarah(AT)frenchfrieswithpepper.com with your contact info and days/times
that would be most convenient for you.

In the meantime, visit Ragnarrelay.com to learn more!

Has anyone here ran the Ragnar before? If so post your experience to comments.

Cloyde M shows us that being strong aint easy

"I’ve written before that I think CrossFitting with consis-
tency and intensity both requires and evokes emotional
commitment. For many, it is too challenging and trans-
formative to engage in casually. It makes us vulnerable
and forces us far beyond our zones of comfort. It makes
us reckon with decisions we make about eating and
sleeping. It makes us consider all our excuses for not being
as fit as we’d like. It gets our competitive juices flowing and
encourages us to set higher goals for what our bodies can
do."
excerpt from "Living the CrossFit Life"
