CrossFit Knoxville is proud to be hosting our 6th Annual CF Squared event to raise money and awareness for the East TN Chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
A note from Johnny Davis:
My 4-month-old sister, Jennifer, died of Cystic Fibrosis when I was 4 years old. I saw what it did to my parents and how it devastated them and would like to help others avoid that if possible.
Cystic Fibrosis is one of the rare diseases that a cure might actually be in sight and your donations and efforts can legitimately make a difference. Come join us for some friendly competition to raise awareness and fundraising dollars to help those living with Cystic Fibrosis in Tennessee. One hundred percent of proceeds will be donated to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation!

As with the symptoms and demands of the disease, this competition will include one lung-demanding workout designed to challenge athletes’ airways and ability to breathe.

3 Rounds:
500m Simultaneous Row
21 Alternating Thrusters, EACH
Q: What if I don't do CrossFit?
A: No worries! We have a beginner friendly version for everyone.
Q: Can I bring my kids?
A: Kids can definitely participate but they'll probably need to be 10 and above or really tall. The rower is very challenging for smaller kids.
Q: What size shirt should I order, how are they cut?
A: We are using a unisex Bella + Canvas Tri-blend shirt. Check out this sizing chart.
Q: How will the heats work?
A: We will be able to run 8-10 teams at a time. We will not send out a heat schedule prior to the event, rather we'll determine heats on the day of. Please plan to stay the whole time and cheer teams on as they work!
