UPCOMING EVENTS
Hey guys! Here is a little bit about the new Upcoming Events.

WODism for Autism is a come-and-go event next Saturday at CrossFit Alabaster. Get there anytime between 10:00am-2:00pm and they will put you in a heat. There is no registration fee, they just ask that you make a donation of any amount you choose. You can participate in the WOD "Taylor", the Ground-to-Overhead relay, or both! Coach Dawn of CF Alabaster created this event in 2012 in honor of her son Taylor and as a way to bring awareness to Autism. Several Carport athletes went to this last year and had a blast. Coach Cori even brought home a prize!

Memorial Day "Murph"FREE EVENT 8-10am at CARPORT CROSSFIT
"On Monday, May 26, 2014, Carport CrossFit will celebrate Memorial Day and honor our nation's fallen heroes including, in particular, those who have been awarded The Congressional Medal of Honor, by running the Hero WOD known as "The Murph" or "Murphy". The Murph consists of a 1 mile run, 100 pullups, 200 pushups, 300 air squats and another 1 mile run. It is said to have been the favorite workout of U.S.N. Lt. Michael Murphy who, at the age of 29, valiantly and selflessly gave his life for his country and his comrades while engaging enemy combatants in Afghanistan on June 28th, 2005. The pull-ups, pushups, and squats may be partitioned as needed. As Lt. Murphy preferred to do this workout wearing body armor, athletes are encouraged to wear weighted vests as they dare." - Puma
