SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: CROSSFIT O-ZONE IS GOING LIVE!

April 14, 2010

Almost two years ago, at the prompting of my sister, I decided to set up a website that would make CrossFit accessible to anyone who wanted to do it, but who was too overwhelmed by the Main Site to start. Having been in that position myself — limited access to a CrossFit affiliate, deconditioned due to medical conditions, and clueless when it came to exercise — I knew how it felt! I decided to create something that would allow ANYONE to start from home, modifying the WODs and posting the necessary videos so newbies could learn the movements. Every morning (or night) I have followed the Main Site postings, dreaming of the day when I would be able to run my own actual affiliate.

Well, that day has finally come! I have been approved by CrossFit HQ to turn CrossFit O-Zone into a live, physical affiliate! I am in the process of setting up for my first class, which will begin on in a few weeks. Details on that will be coming soon!

I have had the privilege of training, working and coaching at CrossFit 10, here in Georgia, and I want to thank all of the athletes I am leaving behind. I also want to thank all the athletes that come to this site. CFOZ had been a pleasure to run. There aren’t too many comments around here, but the e-mails I have received over the last couple of years have kept me going. Knowing that I have helped even one athlete work up the courage to step into their local affiliate makes my efforts here worth while. Thank you, my fellow CrossFitters!

Over the next few weeks you will start seeing changes to the website as I make the transition. I will continue to post the scaled Main Site WODs for the rest of the month. Of course, the archives for the last two years will remain up as well.

Thank you again.

    Congrats Pili. You deserve the best. Your site really helped me get into Crossfit after “sort of” following it before. My CFT has improved tremendously since I first started many months ago. Thanks again. Good Luck!
