Northwest Harvest Was A Success



On November 26th, 2009 StoneWay CrossFit had their 1st Northwest Harvest fundraiser at The Fitness Lab at 9am.

The whole event was a success!  We had 16 participants join us on this cloudy/rainy Thanksgiving morning.  We had members and non-members of StoneWay CrossFit join us from all over Seattle.  The WOD (Workout of the Day) for today was a team WOD which included: 100m Farmer Walks, Deadlifts, Sprints, and Pull-ups.  The duration of each exercise was determined on the team member doing the 100m Farmers Walk.  One he/she returned each member of the group would rotate to the next exercise.  The duration of the entire WOD was 20 minutes.  There was not a set amout of repetitions for each exercise, however each team kept a running tally on their Deadlift station.  At the end of the 20 minutes the team with the most Deadlift was the winner of today's WOD.  The winning team (Team 2) had a total of 477 Deadlifts!

The event was so much fun but was especially rewarding knowing that we were putting hot plates on families tables in the Seattle area that are not as fortunate as we are because of everyone's donation.  We want to thank everyone of you from the bottom of our hearts for helping make this possible.  The total money raised from our 9am class $300!

Great Job Team!!!
