21 Athlete Inducted
Thank you to everyone who attended out Annual Christmas Party on Friday night. We hope everyone had a lovely time. Huge thanks to Side Launch for hosting us again, to Season and her incredible team at Culinary Designs for the incredible food, as well as to Emma for capturing the night again for us.
We’ll have more on that this week, but today we wanted to Congratulate the 21 athletes we inducted into the CrossFit Indestri 1000 WOD Squad.
On Friday night we decided to do something a little different. Awards became a fun tradition at our Christmas parties over the years, but the truth is, they’ve always been stressful for us. As much as we love recognizing people, choosing awards based on our opinions meant we risk someone feeling left out, and that never sat well with us. Even when we tried highlighting longevity, our ZenPlanner system didn't give accurate numbers, because it only tracks an original start date, not breaks or returns.
If you been with us since the old gym some of you might remember our old Muscle Up Club board. When someone earned their first ring muscle up, their name went up on it. It was earned through hard work, and was something many started to strive for.
This year, and in the years to come, we wanted to bring that feeling back.
To celebrate something earned. Something clear, and something that reflects your commitment day after day, year after year.
So on Friday night we introduced a new CrossFit Indestri Club.
We’ve been working with Dan on a design, (thank you Dan), and this week those of you inducted on Friday night will receive an email from us asking for your shirt size, as we’ll be gifting each of you a shirt to honour your achievement.
This new club has 21 athletes being inducted. These athletes have hit an incredible milestone. We officially introduce and welcome the first members of the 1000 WOD Squad, earned by completing one thousand plus workouts at CrossFit Indestri.
One thousand workouts.
One thousand times choosing hard work, choosing effort, and choosing this community.
It is absolutely incredible, and it deserves to be honoured.

Ashley Hall - 1110
Brittany Freund - 1208
Chris Long - 1132

There are a number of you based on your attendance that will also join the 1000 WOD Squad next year as well, based on your attendance in 2026.
As you can see have 2 athletes close to a 2000 WOD Squad, so depending on their attendance in 2026, we could be inducting the first couple athletes to another new club at next years Christmas party as well.
It is our hope to one day give every single one of you one of these shirts, and that you strive to join the 1000 WOD Squad as well.
Your trust in us means more than you we can tell you. And the commitment you show to your health and fitness is something we’re proud to walk alongside you for.
Please join us in congratulating all the athletes above.
