MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND ANNOUNCEMENT:
With this weekend being a time to reflect back and honor those who gave their lives for our country, we couldn’t think of any better way to do this than by kicking off our Memorial Day Weekend Hero WOD Marathon. Over Friday, Saturday, and Monday (give you a nice rest day Sunday) we will run three different Hero WODs to honor those fallen warriors. Today, we start with “Air Force”. Not your traditional Hero WOD, but seeing as how we are on an Air Force base, this WOD is dedicated to not only all Air Force brothers and sisters who gave the ultimate sacrafice, but to all service members both past and present.
Also, due to Holiday hours, we will only run one class each day.
Fri – 0900
Sat – 0900
Mon – 1000
