“Happy Birthday Ryan”
Partner WOD
Partner A:
6 split jerks, alternating, 185lbs/135lbs
200m run
Partner B: Double unders until Partner A finishes.
When Partner A finishes, switch roles. Repeat this process until each partner has completed 3 rounds.
Score: Total time for both partners to complete 3 rounds, subtracting one second for each double under completed throughout the workout. For example: 10 minutes (600 seconds) – 200 double unders = 400 seconds, or 6:40.
After the 5 PM WOD today we will be grilling some burgers and hanging out to celebrate Coach Ryan’s birthday. Everyone’s welcome to come, we hope to see you there!

Sally posing with her charcoal rendering of our logo on the wall of the new gym.
Hopefully that logo will be painted on soon…but before that, we’ve got a concern to address. Sand City is trying to deny us our use permit.
OH NO!
We’ve done our best to address the city’s concerns (primarily a question of supposed inadequate parking,) however we think having a show of support at our City Council hearing may help.
What can you do?
I’ve already asked around, but here’s the info if I haven’t got to you yet:
1) Send us an e-mail at CrossFitMonterey@gmail.com about how CF Monterey has positively impacted your life and why you think it is important for us to continue to grow.
2) Come show your support! Our City Council hearing is Tuesday evening, November 17th at 7 PM, at Sand City City Hall. The more the merrier! Wear a CrossFit Monterey t-shirt if you’ve got one. Let’s show the city that we’re more than just a gym, we’re a community.
