Over the mountain.

by carney on August 29, 2010

Michael, James, Nichole, Daniel, Michelle, and Mark (Casey and Chris not in photo) represent CrossFit Missoula at the Pengelly Double Dip.

The Pengelly Double Dip took place June 12. CrossFit Missoula had eight members participate in the race.

The race is 13 miles long with over 5,000 feet of elevation gain. It’s a beautiful and challenging course.

The course crosses over itself three times, so you get to cheer on the fastest runners and show support to the slower ones, making for a great community building event.

CrossFit Missoula has been a sponsor for both 2009 and 2010 events, and will be there again in 2011.

You can find the 2010 results here.

Next year’s race is set for June 11. Hope to see you there!

Heart to the end.

CrossFit Missoula represents at 2010 Bridger CrossFit Showdown

Jen, Michael, Daniel, Carly, Janelle, Nyss, Vivian, and Kaelan road trip to participate in the Bridger CrossFit Showdown.

Congratulations to Michael and Janelle for stellar performances at the Bridger CrossFit Showdown! Michael placed 3rd of 12, while Janelle took 6th of 13.

Though only a few get the opportunity to stand on the podium, everyone has the chance to show heart.

CrossFit WOD’s are tough enough. Double them up, throw in a bunch of screaming fans, add on the pressure to represent your box, and you’re guaranteed to come out hamburger.

Michael and Janelle did not let us down! They gave it their all, and showed heart to the end!

Trevor Win’E Memorial Day Challenge

by carney on May 9, 2010

Join us, Monday, May 31, at 0930 for the fourth annual Trevor Win’E Memorial Challenge.

The Trevor Win’E Memorial Challenge is a CrossFit style event to raise money for cooling vests to be worn by service men and women in Iraq & Afghanistan.

We will do a team workout named “Trevor” on behalf of US Army SPC Trevor Win’E (killed in action near Mosul, Iraq in 2004).

The workout is for time: 300 pull ups, 400 push ups, 500 sit ups, 600 squats. The team must accumulate this many total reps, and only two team members can be working at a time.

Each team will donate $200 ($50 per team member) to the Trevor Win’E Memorial Fund to purchase one cooling vest to be worn by military personnel in Iraq or Afghanistan.

Those unable to participate, but who would like to contribute, can make a donation to the Trevor Win’E Memorial Fund.
