Friday Night Fights: Battle of the Sexes

Battle-of-the-Sexes

We’re pumped to announce that our next Friday Night Fights event will be…BATTLE OF THE SEXES!

DATE: Friday, February 3rd @ 5:45pm.

EVENT DETAILS: This will be an X vs. Y event pitting the men of the gym against the ladies. So far in the history of Battle of the Sexes the ladies are undefeated! Can the men rally together this time for the upset and claim their first victory? Athletes will participate in teams of two of the same sex. Scores in workouts will benefit the greater team of the men or ladies. RX and Scaled variations of the workouts will be provided.

Albany CrossFit members are free to participate in the event. There is a $20 drop in fee for non-gym members to participate.

This FNF event will also be a fundraiser for the local chapter of BEST BUDDIES INTERNATIONAL.
