Brown Bag Notes
Amazing humans of CrossFit 310,
This is a quick letter to you all. It’s a note I’d like to deliver with the affection of a mom scribbling something personal on the brown bag that holds each of her kid’s lunches (Who remembers brown bag lunches?).
I’d like this note to encourage you, maybe make you smile, and also give you a small spoonful of Mom wisdom–you know, the kind that gives you confidence at just the right time.
You came to workout at 310 for a personal and specific reason–and we absolutely love that. Our aim is to honor your personal goals and to be part of your journey. But, I have found, over the course of the 13 years we’ve been open, that people don’t usually stay with us for years because of “Goals”. People stay because they feel something in our culture that resonates deeply with them AND the way we present fitness matches where their goals are pointed.
Today, I wanted to send you a description of the three chords that bind together everything we do at CrossFit 310. They will give you insight into the things we value. They will help you put words to some of the things you may have felt, but couldn’t describe. And, they could help you participate with us in a more profound way…more on that last sentence to come.
The Three Chords:
We take movement seriously, but we never take ourselves too seriously.
Profound and exceptional physical fitness is easier to get than people think.
Our culture is about bringing up the next generation alongside us.
That’s it. That’s how we have tied everything up into the ball of our culture at CrossFit 310. I know, short note. But that’s the point. Just a little note on your lunch bag that we will continue to unpack over the days we have together in the home…or the gym.
The next Brown Bag Note will dive into and unpack the first chord.
And just in case nothing brought a smile to your face yet, maybe this Dad joke, that I might write on a brown bag lunch, will do it:
“Apple pie in Jamaica $2.55
Cherry pie in Antigua $4.57
Key Lime Pie in Dominican Republic $3.87
Those are the pie rates of the Caribbean.”
Love you guys,
Koach
