Registration is 10$ USD. Also, we’ll have a sign up sheet this week at Pyro for heat times and judges. There is no charge for doing this at Pyro, only your registration through the CrossFit Games to be on the leaderboard. If for any reasons you would like to participate but do not wish to be on the leaderboard, you can still come to do the lifts, the workout or both. Remember, this is a competition against yourself, set a goal and destroy it. We’re 5 weeks away, this is a good time to work on technique, build strength and get better. There is age divisions and weight classes, here’s the breakdown:
