Healing Heroes Project

DESCRIPTION
Join CrossFit Nexus and Insurance Coaches Friday, December 7 in celebrating and honoring our heroes. From 5:30 to 8:30 pm on Friday, every 13 minutes, we will be running the Hero workout "DG". All heroes were a part of something bigger than just themselves. By raising funds for Warriors Ascent we are helping all the heroes who helped us through the sacrifices they made.

We have taken the workout "DG" and built appropriate variations so that ALL can join, regardless of ability. Our goal is participation, and to create an environment where all levels feel welcome to show their support. Whether you plan on joining us for the workout or just come to watch we will absolutely love to see you there.

About the cause:
Warriors' Ascent was created in 2014 by two Iraq combat veterans. They provide those suffering from PTS with the tools they need to heal and tend the mind, body, and soul. They do this using cutting-edge holistic medical practices based on scientific research, which is implemented through their Academy of Healing. All proceeds from the event will go to supporting Warriors' Ascent and their efforts.
