How will we capture scores?
You will enter the points you’ve collected each day into a Google Sheet Tracker* which will pull your overall score into a leader board. You are responsible for doing this - we won’t chase you.
But we will be hosting talks and workshops on nutrition, mobility, programming & recovery to support you in succeeding and keep you on track, plus arm you with the knowledge and tools to make long term, positive and sustainable changes to your nutrition and lifestyle.
*There is an element of trust here, that no one will sabotage each other’s scores. 
Will there be prizes?
Maybe!
But the real reward will be the positive effects on your health, recovery, body, and mind, not to mention it will help prepare you and focus you for the upcoming CrossFit Open!
