CrossFit Nittany

Memorial Day is just around the corner. That means the Memorial Day Murph is too. If you are considering not doing the Murph because it is to difficult, or you are worried about not finishing, we have some great scaling options available for you. This way everyone can sweat their butts off Monday morning.  Along with the original Murph we will have a Half Murph, Partner Murph and a Smurf Murph for the little ones! If you have any questions you can talk to Bryan or Jen.  See you Monday the 27th!

First Friday Game Night is something we do every first Friday of the month. It is a chance to get to know everyone a little better and meet people you might not normally see.  It all starts at 7:30pm here at the gym. You can bring a game to play and a dish to share if you choose. It is BYOB, but please remember to be responsible.  Come hang out and relax…no workout

For our next active recovery we will be playing ultimate Frisbee! We will meet at Circleville Park, Sunday May 19th at 2:30pm, right after open gym. Circleville Park is the same park we played kickball in last year. Click here for directions —–>  Directions
