The Crossfit community is a large, tight knit community, and has the potential to make a difference.
The inequality and injustice suffered by the Black community needs immediate action from people of all backgrounds, and as a community we have the opportunity to make a difference.
In the tradition of Crossfit, we have organized a WOD in memory of George Floyd, and all of the other victims of racism and police brutality.
The WOD is simple, but brutal, and is meant to test your mental and physical perseverance. You'll feel like quitting, but you can't.
Beginning Friday, June 5th, athletes around the world will begin partaking in "Burpees For Justice."
