CHANGES TO FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS FOR 16.1

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS (this does not affect any of the 6:00am, 8:30am, and noon classes): 
With the announcement of 16.1, we have to make a few changes logistically so we can accommodate the 90+ athletes registered for the Open this year. Since the workout requires 25 feet of Walking Lunges, we can only fit 6 athletes in one heat. So, starting at 4:00PM, we will run 6 person heats until we validate everyone needing validation. YOU MUST GO TO MINDBODY now and sign-up for a heat. IF YOU DO NOT SIGN-UP, YOU WILL NOT GET VALIDATED. If you have trouble with the MINDBODY app, just log on with your computer or internet browser. If you are a visitor you must email Coach Elyse (elyse@808crossfit.com) and request a time. Preference will be given to 808 athletes first, but will do our best to accommodate visitors. The validation fee is $20 (cash only).

We are also asking that you come only 30-minutes prior (NOT EARLIER) to your heat and you must leave soon after you finish. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate the large volume of cars in the parking lot and will ask you to park on the street if you show up too early or try to hangout after your assigned heat. Coach Sage will be enforcing the parking, so please do not upset the pregnant coach! If you park on the street, you can hangout as long as you like!

You will NOT be able to park onsite. There is plenty of street parking within 300 meters of the gym, both free and metered: free street parking on Kalani Street and a ton of meter parking on Kohou Street (see link to map below)! Kohou metered parking is FREE after 6pm and on SUNDAYS.

Again, please DO NOT park onsite. There will be a few coaches monitoring the parking lot. You will be asked to move if you try to park onsite and we don't want to take away time from your learning during the cert.
