Looking for a New Challenge to Add to the Crim 5k?
Sign Up for the Crossflint Challenge!
Here’s how it will work:
- CrossFlint 5K Challenge racers will start their 5K according to the Crim race schedule
- Near the halfway point (there will be a marker), challenge participants will exit the 5K race course and enter a designated area at Sal’s Gym
- At Sal’s Gym, volunteers will guide each participant through 4 different movement exercises, each of which will be timed at 2 minutes. The volunteer will keep count of how many reps are completed within the 2 minutes at each station (8 minutes total of movement exercises).
- There will be 2 different categories of the CrossFlint 5K Challenge – bodyweight and weighted (wearing a weighted vest for the entire race and challenge)
- Movement stations in the bodyweight category are designed for a more beginner participant and are more advanced for weighted category participants
- Once all 4 movement stations are completed, CrossFlint Challenge participants will exit Sal’s Gym and return to the Crim 5K race course to complete the rest of their 5K race, crossing the main Crim finish line.
- Results will be calculated based on the fastest 5K finish time and highest number of reps completed in the movement stations
