Rest Day & CrossFit for Hope!

Thanks for another great week at ICA!! As you relax and enjoy the good weather this weekend, take a few minutes to sign up for this year’s CrossFit for Hope fundraiser. This year the entire CrossFit community is joining together to raise money for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. The goal is to raise $1.7 million – one day’s operating cost for St. Jude – to combat childhood cancer and other deadly diseases.

“Hope”

Three rounds of:

  • Burpees
  • 75/55 pound Power snatch
  • Box jump, 24/20″ box
  • 75/55 pound Thruster
  • Chest to bar Pull-ups

“Hope” has the same format as Fight Gone Bad. In this workout you move from each of five stations after a minute. This is a five-minute round from which a one-minute break is allowed before repeating. The clock does not reset or stop between exercises. On call of “rotate,” the athlete/s must move to next station immediately for good score. One point is given for each rep.

To register, visit hope.crossfit.com. Register under CrossFit Phoenixville. We will be doing the workout at a facility in Manayunk along with other local affiliates – thanks to the hard work of CrossFit 215 for organizing the event! Our goal is to make it the largest CFH event on the east coast! CF 215 set up a Facebook page HERE to track who will be attending – if you have a Facebook account please visit and click “going”.

We set an affiliate goal of $1000. If we get 20 people to each raise $50, we’ll meet our goal!
