Having just completed nine weeks of intense firefighter training, Jennifer Simperman graduated from the Washington State Fire Training Academy this weekend. She's been working hard at CrossFit Eastside and on her own to prepare for the academy and for the work of a firefighter. We have been honored to be part of helping Jennifer follow her dreams.
Jen is following in the footsteps of fellow CFES athlete and firefighter Jenny Oltmann, a longtime veteran of Eastside Fire & Rescue.

It was an amazing weekend. Northwest-area firefighters collected at CrossFit Eastside to attend a level-1 CrossFit certification seminar. Over two days, the staff of trainers from around the country taught 39 people the fundamentals of CrossFit and had them looking great by the end of the weekend. Happy to have you all in the house!

The newest batch of shirts is in! We have the new CrossFit Eastside original "100 is the new 60" design, as well as the third generation of the CFES classic "Get Some Go Again." Tees, long-sleeves, hoodies (brr!), and, for the lay-dees, tank tops.
If you ordered some and haven't picked them up yet, they await you here in the gym. If you didn't order and want some, come and get 'em!
We will have one--and only one--laborious workout session on Monday, September 1st, at 10:00a.m. Everyone is welcome to join in.
Closed the rest of the day.
