WOD - 12pm "Grace For Tanner"
Registration starts at 11:00am and is by donation. Come help us give some to get some....

10 year old Tanner Lager is suffering from Ewing Sarcoma cancer. His condition is terminal. Tanner is currently being cared for by his 23 year old sister, Savanna. They must travel to St. Louis weekly for experimental treatments that could prolong his life for a few years. Without these treatments, Tanner has only a few short months. Tanner is a fighter and despite his condition, he is upbeat and always has a smile. These experimental treatments and the 3 1/2 hour weekly trips to St. Louis are financially devastating for the young 23 year old and her brother. Their mother is in and out of hospitals, unable to care for Tanner, and the father is not a part of their lives. It is a situation that few of us could fathom. Please join us on Saturday, January 28, as we do the workout titled Grace to benefit Tanner. Athlete registration begins at 11am. Registration fee is by donation only and cash prizes will be awarded to the male and female athletes with the lowest Rx'd Grace time. Grace is 30 clean and jerks for time. Rx'd weight is 135# for men and 95# for women. Weights will be scaled to your ability and for your safety. We want everyone who wants to participate to do so, regardless of strength or athletic ability. So, whether it is a weighted barbell or you just want to learn a little about CrossFit and how to clean and jerk by using a PVC pipe, come and join us. Admittance for viewers is free and all donations welcome. Please come and help us support Tanner Lager! Thank you!
