This is an awesome opportunity to gather our community and push each other to our limits- for some of us, we may find what those limits actually are, and for others, you may surpass all expectations and surprise yourself every week. It is an opportunity to see how far you have come in a year and to see what you may need to work on in the coming year. We will be running these workouts every Friday Night from 6:30PM-9PM aka FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS. After 5 weeks of representing your gym, region, age group, etc., only the top 20 male/female athletes from each region will advance to the Regional events.
