Monday, October 7
The soul becomes dyed with the color of its thoughts.
Gym Update:
We had an awesome workday on Saturday and got a lot done. Humbled and grateful to have support from friends at Beer City CrossFit and Underground Fitness. Members from CrossFit Murphy showed up and dropped off a ton of water for us as well. CrossFit has an amazing sense of community that never ceases to impress me. I’m looking forward to when we can return some of this generosity to other gym communities.
All of the rubber flooring was rolled up and removed.
The concrete floor was squeegied (sp?) and shoveled. Waiting on water for pressure washing.
Rig was unbolted and moved to allow for floors to be pulled.
Cut trees and brush moved to road
Grass cut and weed eating
leaves and front parking lot blown off
What’s left to do?
Haven’t started on bathrooms.
Equipment has to be cleaned
Concrete floor pressure-washed
Replace rubber flooring or clean dirty floors and reset.
Re-bolt rigs to floor
As of yesterday, we still didn’t have power at Pisgah. We all know water will be many weeks away.
Restart?
Ok, looking ahead, it will help me to get a temperature check on where you are as members in wanting to get something going at the gym, or not. I’ve set up a very short Google Form to collect your opinion. Can you knock this out ASAP?
We will be closed to on-site training until I can analyze the responses from the survey (probably at least Monday and Tuesday). If folks are itching to come back, we’ll make a plan. If not, we’ll push another week or two and go from there.
Your Accounts
I’ve yet to go through and freeze memberships for the time the gym is, and has been, closed. I am going to do that, it’s just lengthy as I have to do each member’s account individually.
Some of you have asked to continue to be billed as normal. This is incredibly generous and helpful. Thank you!
Others, I’ll place a hold on ASAP and will lift the hold when we’re back to normal.
If you’ve been billed in the last couple weeks, I can keep that payment as a credit for when we’re back open or I can refund you. I’ll reach out and see what your preference is.
Monday “No Equipment” WOD
Each for time:
Run: 6x 400 m (or cover as much distance as you can in 2:00)
Rest as needed between efforts.
