It's Open Eve!

Tis the night before the Open

And all through the town

People are freaking out

About what's going to go down

Burpees, kettlebells,

Box jumps and more

Only crazy Dave Castro

Knows what's in store

The first wod is tomorrow

So we're feeling some stress

With your prior experience

What's your best 20.1 guess?

Who knows what's going to come tomorrow, but either way, we're ready! It's been a great leadup of training through September up to this point and I'm looking forward to seeing what you guys are capable of.

Check out the video below on what historically has happened for the first workout of the Open. The workout will be announced at 5pm tomorrow night.

What is your best guess?
