This past Sunday a few members of CrossFit Fenway took part in the Hoppin’ Mad Mud Run. Christina Nikitopoulos and Stephanie Schneider both expressed some apprehension about the event, but both did great, and had a great time. Jim Cushing and Ed Fish also took part. Whether it’s a trail run, a road race, or a trek through mud and military obstacles, events like these are fun, challenging ways to test your fitness.
Sarah Whiting is heading to the Pineland Farms Trail Running Festival and is offering rides, if anyone else would like to give it a try. Anyone who wants to should be able to find a race, as there are several of varying distances.

WOD- 5:24 Rx
I went in thinking it might be one of the hardest things I’ve done… and came out (of the mud) thinking it was one of the most fun! I’m definitely looking forward to more events like this. Thanks Stacey and Eric for all the support, training and encouragement!
6:30 Rx!!
Justin, I think it’s time for you to come to a 6:30 class.. I miss suffering through WODs with you early in the morning haha
great time and Rx’d to boot! trust me id love to be there at 6:30 if my work schedule would allow
Haley and Justin are my idols! I was so gassed after 2 rounds, I could barely do the push press, let alone the 40 laterals! My cardio is garbage!
