Are YOU still in the game? Quinn Shortal is! Congrats to Quinn for winning the first Blog Contest Prize.

Two more random drawings left between now and the end of March. While the prizes are secret, here is a hint to entice your daily posts: The prizes are “mega” packed with nutrients that help in your “Post Workout” nutritional needs!

Keep posting everyday. With the 2012 CrossFit Open coming up, there will be plenty to post about and you never know what day the next random drawing will be…maybe a Saturday or Sunday this time??

Wednesday, 02.01.12: Atlas Blogging Contest! Post and WIN!

blog[1]

Post your WOD times and comments to the Atlas Blog daily, and WIN! In CrossFit, a few seconds can mean the difference between winning and not winning, so why not bring that competition to the Atlas blog too? All through February and March (that’s 60 days), spend a few seconds every day to post your WOD time and a comment about the WOD/class and you can win some great prizes! CrossFit is about the community and with a whole new year at Atlas, let’s bring the community back to the blog and kick start the routine!

AMRAP AWARD: The athlete with the total most posts to the blog will win 2 FREE tickets to the 2012 CrossFit North Central Regionals!

SUPER Rx AWARD: The athlete with the second total most blog posts will win one FREE private training session with Chris Gizzi.

Rx AWARD: The athlete with the third total most posts on the blog received a FREE one-on-one nutrition counseling session with Jennifer Gizzi.

CHIPPER AWARD: Anyone who posts 50+ days will receive $20 off one month of membership or the next upcoming specialty program! (void if winner of AMRAP, Super RX, or RX awards)

DAILY WOD AWARD: Athletes that post on 25+ days will win the opportunity to design their own WOD, named after them, that will be programmed at Atlas.

3 Daily WOD Random Drawings: We will randomly select a post on three unknown days throughout the contest. Posting gives you a better (the only) chance of being drawn for a mystery prize.

Fine Print: Eligible postings will be counted from the “Daily WOD Blog” and the “ACF Blog”. The Atlas Facebook page and other social sites are not a part of this specific contest, but look forward to bring the online social to Facebook. By the way…have you “liked” the Atlas Facebook Page yet? If not, you’re late. DO IT NOW…new posts throughout the day.
