The Fall season is officially upon us. The weather is cooling down, days are getting shorter, school is back in session and kids’ fall sports are in full swing. A lot has happened in the last month at the Main Line CrossFit Boxes. New gear is still arriving, a new location for CrossFit R5 is coming and new faces are joining our community including the new heir to the Main Line CrossFit brand. That’s right, Dylan Davidson arrived on October 8th and although she doesn’t know it yet she has a lot of fitness to live up to. A BIG thank you to the Main Line CrossFit community for attending the happy hour baby shower to celebrate with us.
As things settle down for the Fall season let us update you on all the awesomness going on at the Boxes; including updates on the Lifestyle Challenge, new winter apparel and events coming your way.
So take a minute and a couple of sips of your pumpkin spiced coffee and skim through the great stuff going on in the next few months at the Main Line CrossFit Boxes.
See you at the Box, Daniel, Merrilee & Dylan!
