Athletes from CrossFit Blackheath, a Box in London, have performed 24 CrossFit workouts in 24 hours straight. The objective is to raise money for a children’s hospice organisation. Click here to donate.
It was 9 in the morning when 20 people were divided into groups of 4 and began the first workout of a long, but rewarding, fitness day.
“Despite the event being planned that some workouts would only require one or two members of the team to partake, pretty much the whole 20 participants fully committed and did the whole 24 hours,” Nicola Stiddard told BOXROX.
Stiddard is the owner of CrossFit Blackheath, one of the newest Box in London that opened in August 2021. “Our only previous event was a friendly local throw down in December so this was certainly a big step up,” she added.
24 CrossFit Workouts in 24 Hours For Charity
Why would people go through the pain of doing one CrossFit workout every hour for an entire day without sleeping? For charity, of course. CrossFit Blackheath wants to help Haven House, an organisation that provides specialist care to seriously ill children and their families.
”It has been incredible to raise such a great amount for such a good cause that our community has a personal link to,” Stiddard said.
At the time of writing, CrossFit Blackheath managed to raise £11122.
Help by donating to Haven House.
People all over the world can help by donating through the link above. Stiddard explained that there were other private links to donate, which brings the total amount to £11122.
Will CrossFit Blackheath and its members do it again sometime in the future? “I don’t think anyone would say no to a second,” Stiddard said passionately.
