Recently, CrossFit has received a great deal of mass media attention. Whether its been coverage from ESPN, CNN, or from the Reebok/CrossFit commercials aired during last night’s NFC divisional playoff game, it’s all a very positive thing to see the continued growth of CrossFit as a training concept and as a competitive sport. For those who have been engaged in the CrossFit community for some time now, it’s also somewhat bittersweet to see the once underground movement of CrossFit transition into the mainstream. It’s like- to some extent- we’ve lost that “Cosa Nostra” vibe we all once shared.

But here’s the rub: Regardless of how big any organization gets and regardless of the amount of marketing it receives, it will have longevity only if it has substance. For us at CrossFit Springfield this means being authentic about our desire to see EVERYONE who steps foot onto our training floor succeed in both fitness AND life. This has and always will be our purpose and our greatest mission. Million dollar ads, flashy brand-name apparel, and dime-a-dozen affiliates trying to cash in on a fitness trend won’t change the fact that CrossFit, at it’s core, has always simply been about an infinitely and universally scalable fitness program. Stories like that of Maddy Thomas in the video above help to remind us that it’s not about our ability or lack thereof; it’s about our effort.

“We’re focused on what we can do not what we can’t.” ~ Major Andrew Thompson USMC

WELL, CrossFit Springfield, Here’s something WE CAN DO…

“Grace For Tanner”

Meet Tanner. 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 our fellow West Plains affiliate, CrossFit SoMo (the event will be held in West Plains at CF SOMO), 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!
