LOOK AT THIS AWESOMENESS!!

Hey guys- I just got an email about the Trevor Win'E Memorial Challenge. It sounds amazing, Crossfit Orange County in San Clemente is hosting it locally. Here is the website: http://crossfitorangecounty.typepad.com/trevor_wine_memorial_2009/
It's a CrossFit Team WOD designed to support our active duty military personnel who are currently deployed in the middle east. Each participating team donates one cooling vest to deployed service person in Iraq or Afghanistan. Your team can donate your vest to any deployed service man or woman! (I'm thinking Jimmy, for sure!)

The WOD: Teams of four complete the following:
300 Pull ups
400 Push ups
500 Sit ups
600 Squats
Execution: This is a team effort so it is accumulative reps. Only two teams members can exercise at a time, and all reps must be completed before moving on to the next movement (i.e. finish all pull ups before moving on to the push ups). FORM COUNTS!! All counters must insure that repititions be performed perfectly.

Registration is $200 per team, and it is on Memorial Day. There will be Fire Dept. teams, USMC teams, and affiliate teams. Crossfit OC will supply food and water. Sorry, no brew at this gathering due to it being Orange County Fire Headquarters. It will begin at 0900 with opening ceremonies, then we will kick off the team workouts at 0930. It will be going until noon.

What do you say guys?-- Are there 4 people who want to do it?- Think of Jimmy! I will donate half the money for the team registration. If you're interested, post to comments. Tustin, that means you too!!!!!!

Count me in. If there's room on the team I'd love to do it. If not, Crossfit cheerleader works too!

Ditto (except for the cheerleader thing - not so good with the leg warmers).

I'm out of town that weekend but would like to donate the other half of the registration fee.

I'd be willing. If we get more than one team, my brother is heading out of country in about a month. So does the entrance fee cover the cost of the vest or is that on top of the vest? It looks like the vest is about $213 according to the website.

The entrance fee covers the cost of the vest. That is very generous of you, Andy. Looks like we have a team of 3 so far... let's see... :)

Alright- so we've got our team of 4- Deeanna, Moose, Jay and Julie!! I just emailed Jimmy to get his address, and I'm going to have a Crossfit360 patch made for the vest. They put a Pukie patch on there too LOL.
If there are more interested people, please keep posting. We can send as many teams as we want to.

I'm donating money to the vest/registration fee too. Don't be shy y'all: make another team and/or throw some bucks into the kitty. Let's get Jeff (Jay's brother) a vest too!
