EmerFit CLOSED: Snow Update and Cancellations
October 28, 2009 | 10 Comments
UPDATE:EmerFit is now CLOSED for the day. All evening classes are CANCELLED.
This decision was made after CSU and the City of Fort Collins announced that they were closing at 2:00 P.M. The City has issued an accident alert and is encouraging all residents to stay off the roads and to drive only in the case of an emergency. Working out is not an emergency.
If you need a workout do today’s 75 burpees for time. The record for today is 3:15 by Brad, closely followed by Dr. G at 3:24. Post your time to the comments. Yes, you read that correctly: Brad is back, more on that exciting news in a few hours with tomorrow’s blog post.
At this time we are planning to still have the 5:30 and 6:30 P.M. classes but we STRONGLY encourage you to stay off the roads and to stay home. A workout is not worth an accident on slippery roads.
For now we plan to run tomorrow’s (Thursday) classes as scheduled.
Please be safe out on the roads and sidewalks.
The National Weather Service is predicting 4-8 inches this afternoon and another 2-4 inches tonight with high winds. Check the weather here.
