The 2nd Annual ReEvolve Pop-up Classic + Social is here! It was designed to celebrate the roots of CrossFit® and the CrossFit Games® by completing some classic WOD's and Games inspired workouts in a partnered team event. This is a community building event designed to inspire fitness enthusiasts to meet and network with like-minded people in a non-intimidating and welcoming way. Community is the safe haven where we all find success and inspiration.
The format of the event will consist of a Competition during the day and a Social in the evening. Athletes, volunteers and attendees will be given a two hour break to eat, freshen up, and change for the Social. You must have a ticket to attend the Social (athlete's ticket price is included in registration). There will be a casual dress code in effect for the Social (no sweaty gym clothes). The ticket price includes free beer, a DJ, and more.

FAQ:
Q: Can I just come to the Social if I am not competing in the Competition?
A: Absolutely - if you are not competing and still want to party with some CrossFitters, simply purchase the SOCIAL ticket.
Q: What if I just want to come watch the competition during the day?
A: Spectatorship during the day is encouraged, welcome and free! If you'd like to compete or attend the Social in the evening you MUST purchase a ticket in advance. It is a private event, closed to the public, and only those who have tickets (to cover the cost of the DJ) will be admitted.
Q: Will I have time to get ready for the Social?
A: Yes - there will be a two hour gap between the Competition and Social for individuals to grab a bite to eat and get ready. We will have a professional photographer in attendance, along with a photo wall so dress to impress!
Q:Since there isn’t a scaled division, what movements do I have to?
A: Although there is not a scaled division, this is still a very inclusive event; think of it as similar to the Open. Since all of the WODs will be inspired by old school CrossFit® workouts, the majority of lifts and gymnastics will be medium level. Here are some movements/weights that are required for this event:
- Pull-Ups
- Ring Dips (must be able to do at least 1)
- Toes to Bar (must be able to do at least 1)
- Clean: 155lbs Males, 105lbs Females
- Double-unders (must be able to do at least 10)
- Thruster: 135lbs Males, 95lbs Females
Q: I have never competed before and am intimidated - is this competition for me?
A: First and foremost this is a community building event - so, yes! Come out and challenge yourself. It is still competitive with some great prizes and certain movements/weights are required (see above for examples) but our goal is to make this inclusive, fun and rewarding. If you have any questions about your ability or have any concerns about the movements, please email [email protected]
Q: Will the workouts be released in advance?
A: No, they will be released on the day of the event. However, all movements that will be used in the competition will be released the week of October 19, 2015. Everyone will compete in three WODs.
Q: Why is there a gap between the end of the competition and the Social?
A. We're giving you a few hours to eat and get ready, as well as for us to set up for the party. There are plenty of restaurants around the area if you are staying in the hotel or live nearby, OR if you are heading back home for a few hours this should give you enough time to freshen up and get ready to party!
Q: I'm drinking and am not driving. I don't live in Oakville. What are my options?
A. We've got you covered! If you live out of town and are attending the Competition AND the Social OR you just want to come party, these are your options (in order of ease):
1. Stay overnight. We have a block of 10 rooms (can block out more if necessary) at the Holiday Inn & Suites Oakville. Ask for the Special Group Rate @ $109/night under 'ReEvolve.' The Holiday Inn is a 5 minute walk from the event location. Split the room with a few friends and make a night out of it!
Address: 2525 Wyecroft Rd, Oakville, ON L6L 6P8
Phone:(905) 847-1000
2. GoTrain. The Bronte GoTrain Station is a 5-10 minute walk, on the same road, to the event location. If you live outside of Oakville you can always drive home to freshen up and eat then GoTrain it back. The GoTrain is cheap, quick, reliable, and pretty much goes everywhere.

3. Carpool. Plan ahead to have some fun and be safe. We'll have some non-alcoholic beverages for our awesome designated drivers!
4. Uber or Cab + TTC.
Heading downtown? UberX is estimating $30 to Kipling Station. Split this with 3 people and you're looking at less than $10 to the TTC which can take you wherever you want to go.
5. Just Uber.
UberX to downtown Toronto is estimating less than $50 for a one way. Split this with 3 friends and your trip to the Social and back will cost you less than $25!
RESTRICTIONS
Attendees must be of legal drinking age in Ontario (19+) to attend the After Party / Social
