We would like to thank each and every one of you for contributing to our community at Foundation CrossFit. You guys have taken us from a 300SF garage in Lake City to a 3000SF box in Capitol Hill.

GTR!

We've gone through another successful year of training with very awesome people. I hope that 2013 brings even more success to each of you, and to the community as a whole.

Our staff has a bunch of plans for the upcoming year, starting off with another Strength Program on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 9am-10:30am, in conjunction with the evening program (Wednesdays/Fridays at 7:30pm-9pm + Sunday at 11am).  Click here for more info.

Other things to look forward to:

• More skill intensive classes
• Olympic Lifting Program
• Endurance/POSE Method Running Program
• Our annual Holiday Party on January 12th at FCF (mark your calendars)
• FCF Media takeover: movement library, cooking show, more features with CFHQ
• AB on a more consistant schedule
• and plenty more!

We've achieved so much this year. I'd love to hear you guys sound off in the comments with one or two things you're most proud of accomplishing through CrossFit.
