We hope this message finds everyone having an awesome weekend. After a few weeks of tearing things down, re-arranging, and re-building we are pretty much ready to go.  We still have a couple of things to clean-up and organize, but the gym is largely setup how it will remain going forward. Thank you all for your patience during this time. So, with that, we will be opening back-up to full normalcy as of tomorrow, Monday, June 7th. What this means, tried to keep it simple, check the bullet points below. Gym Hours (Monday – Thursday) 5:30 AM – 1:30 PM & 3:45 PM – 7:45 PM (Friday) 5:30 AM – 1:30 PM & 3:15 PM – 7:15 PM (Saturday) 7:45 AM – 11:45 AM (Sunday) Closed (we will look at bringing Sunday’s back in the near future if there is demand for it)…

We’re Free!!! Happy Sunday everyone. With the very quick and recent changes on top of some other notes we’ve been needing to get out, we wanted to get some info out to you regarding some upcoming items at the gym along with the obvious changes we’re now allowed to enact as of Friday. Re-Opening As I assume most, if not all of you know already, on Friday, the Governor announced that the state of VT would be immediately falling in-line with the new CDC Federal Guidelines. This is something that we certainly weren’t expecting quite so soon so it is leaving us scrambling just a little bit but we are trying to make quick changes so that we can capitalize on the opportunity of getting as much as possible back to normal at the gym. Unfortunately this isn’t just a flip of the…

I hope you are all having a fabulous weekend and got the opportunity to get outside and enjoy some of that beautiful sunshine yesterday. It’s hard to believe that we’ve already surpassed a year on our initial shut-down and quarantine, and we’re already coming up on a year of when we were officially allowed to re-open CVCF. To say it’s been a tiring and anxiety ridden time for us is a bit of an understatement, but we’ve thankfully been able to push through, learn, compromise, help and receive help however we can to get through what has certainly been the most difficult time in many of our lives. With more and more people in our state getting vaccinated every day, and from what I can tell from our community, we seem to have a pretty high vaccination rate, which combined with the high…

In the last year we’ve seen some drastic, and what we feel are great changes to the CrossFit atmosphere, many of them specific to the competition season. The last 12 months have been a mess for everyone, training has been off for some, while others have had more time than ever to train. Programming has been a little all over the place because of so much unknown, certain equipment not being able to be regularly used, etc. After over 10 years running a CrossFit gym and helping numerous athletes succeed in the Sport of CrossFit it’s given us a lot to think about how, what, why we program. One of the things that has made CrossFit so interesting on the competitive side is the enormous amount of different ways to train.  There is no one right way, but their are definitely wrong ways….

We hope everyone is having a fabulous morning to round out the weekend. Hard to believe we’re already through the entire month of January and a week into February. Before we know it the doors will be open and sun will be shining into the gym. We first wanted to start off by just saying thank you. We’re not sure any of us believed we’d be in such a position right now a year ago, you can certainly count on life to keep us on our toes. Thank you for continuing to support CVCF, for following our guidelines which has allowed us to stay open, and for being kind and respectful of one another which in such a time is so incredibly important. As we continue to march through the winter we appreciate your continued support and cooperation in helping us keep the…

CVCF Community! We are excited to announce that we are preparing for the 2021 CrossFit Open and that we are planning to run our 2nd Annual CVCF Intramural Open with YOU!  We will run the Open workouts on Saturday mornings and we want to get as many CVCF members involved as possible!  Our focus is to safely have FUN working out together, push ourselves a little outside of our comfort zones, while sharing a weekly workout with the global CrossFit community! Here are the logistical details… The initial three CrossFit Open competition dates at CVCF will be March 13th, March 20th and March 27th, 2021.

The Open workouts will be run Saturday morning, we will be adjusting our class schedule accordingly based on how many athletes…

We hope everyone is having a fabulous day and enjoying that beautiful sunshine despite the chilly weather. We wanted to get a few notes, updates, etc. out to everyone with the Holiday’s fast approaching and a New Year coming to us. So here we go… Covid & the Holidays Unfortunately we have to put this at the top of the list. With the Holiday’s coming we want to just send a friendly reminder about the Covid guidelines/protocols we’ve asked people to follow to help ensure us the best possibility of staying open. It seems our state as a whole did a great job over Thanksgiving, as I believe at this point in time, no large outbreaks have been traced back to large Thanksgiving gatherings, and as a State we haven’t seen a large increase in cases the last 7 days. We would greatly…

Happy Monday!   We hope that everyone is doing their best to enjoy the weather outside and focus on what we can control.  Over the past few days we’ve had multiple members ask us what our plan is going forward with Covid or shutting down. As of now, our plan is continue to be here for all of you the best we can. We’re continuing to follow the guidelines provided to us by the state and we also hope that you all are being honest with your part as well. If we are mandated to close we are discussing options, from renting equipment back out and going to Zoom classes, to possibly not closing at all (since we’ve re-opened we’ve had 16,274 check-ins to the gym without a single person testing positive for Covid that we know of, and without a single member…

Happy Monday everyone. We hope you all had an amazing weekend and got to enjoy some of that beautiful weather on Friday. As the temps drop, weather worsens, and we all work through this continued “new normal” we felt it appropriate and time to send out a few quick updates. First and foremost we want to say thank you for all of the support and working with all of us through this pandemic. It’s shocking to think it’s already been over 7 months since we were forced to close our doors, and 4 months since CVCF was able to open back-up. It has certainly been a period of time that we will always remember, and at the same time, we are still unsure of what the the future holds for us. With that said, we are hopeful we will be able to continue…

It’s 4:30 AM, alarm clock blaring, no sign of light as the days have gotten shorter. I get up, get dressed, and go make 4 slices of bacon and 4 eggs before heading off to my first real day as an adult and business owner. August 25th, 2010, getting ready to open in what would seem like a closet today. Wow how time flies. While some things haven’t changed, many have. As those who have been a part of the CVCF community for some time all know, I tend to write some long winded e-mails, blog posts, whatever you might want to call them, so I’ll do my best to keep this one short. For me the scariest thing in life is how quickly time can pass, and at moments I don’t even know how 10 years went by so quickly. At the…
