There will be no strength work today. It is time for our first annual Ugly Christmas Sweater Team Workout!!!
And just in time too! There is an emergency and we can help! So get to the gym as quickly as you can because SANTA needs us!
Santa’s sleigh has broken down and his elves are on strike so CrossFit Carmel has been called on to fill in for the reindeer and elves! Can you help?! I hope you can and if so, here’s how!!!
The elves went on strike before Santa’s sled was loaded so first we need to load 20,000lbs of gifts! (deadlift 95/135 as a team)
Then we need to deliver several bags full of gifts to the children throughout the neighborhoods! ( 2 rounds per helper of 400m run with 1 or 2 medballs in your Santa Bag)
Once you have helped Santa with the loading of his sleigh and the delivery of the gifts you will need to help Santa get back to the North Pole 2000 miles away! (1 mile = 1 meters of rowing)
wod: “Ugly Christmas Sweater Team Workout”
Deadlift 20,000 pounds of weight (combination of 2 athletes)
4 rounds – 400m run with medball in Christmas bag (1 or 2 medballs in a bag and each athlete runs 2 rounds)
Row 2000m as a team (each athlete rows 1000m)











Hmmm. Twelve degrees forecasted for the morning class. I think I’ll try to help Santa in the evening. Good luck morning folks!!!
Thanks for posting early, now I can sleep well. Tim & I will be at the 6:30p. Wish I still had my track spikes to wear, that run is going to be shaky in the snow/ice.
Nice candy cane Jenny
I going to try make it at 6:30 pm also
lol..i sure am sweating a lot for there to be snow coming down!
Wow 2 brave souls at the am class! But where are their sweaters???
No school today!!! Anyone going to afternoon class?

Rick, that is a good idea. I will look at the link and see what interest we have!
Great Ugly Sweater Wod tonight! Rick you were a great teammate!
Thanks Brenda Kudos to you and the Coaches for coming up with this Christmas WOD
Holy crap that was fun! After I thaw out I am sure I will be sore since I am already tired!
I have to say that I would pit any of our CrossFit Carmel Elves against Santa’s gang! I would like to see two of them lift 20,000lbs and THEN run 400m meters with a bag of medballs. Not a chance!!!!!!
