CrossFit North Queensland's World Tour 2006
Good Times, Good Training, Good Friends

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Wishing all the Clients and Friends of CrossFit North Queensland/ Finomenal Fitness a Happy and Safe Christmas and all the best for the New Year.

2006 has been a great year for Finomenal Fitness in Febuary Head Trainer Fiona made the Trip to the USA and became the first Australian to complete the CrossFit Trainers Certification, in Santa Cruz, as wel as travelling up and down the CA coast visiting various crossfit "gyms". Gaining skills , ideas and most importantly friends.

In May Finomenal Fitness became Australia first offical CrossFit Affiliate Crossfit North Queensland. Since then Fiona has travelled to meet the CrossFit Guys from both Sydney and Brisbane, ( several times) both now offical as well and while timing didn't allow her to meet up with the guys from Newcastle and Melbourne, im sure it wil be possible in 2007.

Group workouts have now stoped for the year, but don't let that keep you from doing the WOD from the main page. Personal Training sessions will offically start back on the 3rd January with the first Group CrossFit workout Saturday 6th January 7am at Sherriff Park.

BUT!!!In keeping in with tradition a NEW YEARS DAY WORKOUT will be held at Kickstart Fitness @ 11am.

Drop Fiona an email if you plan to come and BYOB = Bring Your Own Bucket :)

Once again Merry Christmas to all and thankyou for your support and friendship over the past year.

Fiona, Finomenal Fitness
