As we wrap up 2024, let’s reflect on an amazing year packed with accomplishments, milestones, and unforgettable memories at CrossFit Showdown.
In this blog post, we’ll take a month-by-month journey through the highlights that made 2024 an amazing year at CrossFit Showdown.
January: Bring-a-Friend Week
We started the year by encouraging our members to bring their friends and family to try any class at CrossFit Showdown. We believe in the positive impact our group and 1-on-1 personal training can have on their health and fitness, which is why we always invite our members to share the experience with their loved ones. Mark your calendars—our next Bring-a-Friend Week is scheduled for January 20-25, 2025!
February: Intramural Open Registration
February was filled with excitement as we kicked off registration for the Intramural Open. Teams were drafted, the energy in the gym was electric, and we set the stage for an epic three weeks of competition. The intramural open is one of our favorite yearly events. It is a 3-week competition that coincides with the CrossFit Open.
March: Intramural Open Competition
The Intramural Open exceeded expectations as members showcased incredible grit and determination in every workout. The competition was tight at the start, but the green team’s unwavering consistency over the three weeks secured their victory. The 2024 Intramural Open truly celebrated everything that makes CrossFit special—community, effort, and resilience. Congratulations to our winners, proudly crowned as the 2024 CrossFit Showdown Intramural Champions!
April: 1,000 Class Milestone
April marked a major achievement for Casey Joyner, as she reached her 1,000th class at CrossFit Showdown. We celebrated this impressive milestone with well-deserved recognition and a special 1,000-class t-shirt!
May: Memorial Day Murph
On Memorial Day, we honored the legacy of Lieutenant Michael Murphy with the annual Murph workout. This workout was a powerful way to reflect on his sacrifice and the sacrifices of all fallen heroes.
June: CPR Class
In June, we set aside barbells and burpees to focus on lifesaving skills during a CPR class. Our coaches and members gained valuable training, making our community safer and better prepared for emergencies.
July: Bingo Challenge
July’s Bingo Challenge brought fun and motivation to our summer training. Members embraced creative challenges like hitting PRs, attending extra classes, and even participating in goofy, community-building activities. We will definitely be doing another Bingo challenge in 2025. Our members loved this!
August: USAF Special Warfare Workout
In August, we partnered with the U.S. Air Force Special Warfare Recruiting Office. This event not only tested our physical strength but also paid tribute to the courage and resilience of service members.
September: Paddleboarding Trip
We stepped out of the gym and onto the water in September for a paddleboarding trip that perfectly combined fitness and fun. This event was all about taking our fitness outside of the gym!
October: Pumpkin Carving
In October, we invited our members to showcase their pumpkin carving and painting skills!
We also tie-dyed a special edition Halloween themed t-shirt.
November: Panthers Game
In November, our community came together in a big way to see the Florida Panthers play the Philadelphia Flyers. We sold over 50 tickets to this event and even got to go on the ice!
December: In-House Competition
We ended the year on a high note with our much-anticipated in-house competition, “Fittest at Showdown.” Members competed across cardio, weightlifting, and gymnastics-based workouts, putting a year of hard work to the test.
Looking Ahead to 2025
As we celebrate the accomplishments of 2024, we are already looking forward to an even bigger year ahead. Thank you for making this year unforgettable—here’s to crushing our goals in 2025!
