💀 Swim WODs are Back! 💀

Time to trade the chalk for some chlorine, Calaveras! We’re taking the "Dead" out of "Deadlift" and throwing it into the deep end. Whether you swim like a torpedo or sink like a sack of actual bones, it’s time to get wet.

We've partnered with Bret Harte Aquatic Center for some Saturday morning spice. Remember: skeletons don't have lungs, but you do—so prepare to use them!

🗓 The "Don't Drown" Dates:

June: 6/6 & 6/20

July: 7/4 (Red, White, & Blue...swim suits!) & 7/18

August: 8/1 & 8/15

September: 9/12 & 9/19

🕖 The Details:

When: 7:15 AM – 8:15 AM (Early enough to beat the heat, late enough to regret your life choices).

Who: Active CFC Members ONLY. If you aren't on the roster, you're just a spectator on the bleachers.

See you at the pool! 🏊♂️🦴
