Update on Construction, Location, and Parking Great News! We are in the process of building an amazing place for you to continue to build your Core Habits of EAT, TRAIN and SLEEP. At this point, we do not have a Grand Opening date. But you will get an update from us every 3 weeks on the progress of the project. In this newsletter, you will learn about the construction, the exact location, where you can park and how you can get there. Construction We were able to find an efficient and responsible contractor to lead the work Installing a garage door Creating office spaces Removing all of the ceiling tiles and moving sprinklers, air ducts and other stuff to open up the ceiling space Preparing the floor for the rubber matting (it is flat) New location 256 Marginal Street in the Shipyard passed Piers Park Our space is adjacent to Seabiscuit It is 0.6 miles from Maverick Station and less than 0.5 miles from our current location. Parking options You can find screenshots to show you exactly where you can park to make it to the gym You can park on the street passed Piers Park You can drive to the back of Jeffries Point through Sumner Street and then make a right on Jeffries Street. (This is the closest parking to the gym.) How can you get there Walking or biking from Maverick Station is 0.6 miles away Bus 120 goes up Sumner Street and you can get off on Jeffries St to get to the gym through the back street We are super excited to finish this project. But also anticipate some hiccups. So we are asking for your patience and collaboration in this project. BUS 120 ROUTE WALK FROM MAVERICK T STOP OR BLUE BIKE RIDE RECOMMENDED STREET PARKING AREAS In the journey with you, Javy and Sandy Caraballo
Honestly, I was thinking it was going to be like the other CrossFit boxes I had been to before CJP. I thought I wasn’t going to last and that my first class was going to be a try out. I was surprised by how much commitment and effort the coaches put into each of us to make us better, a month try out turned out to be 3 years of continuous work. What started as a couple days a week turned out to be a life time commitment.
I was brought to CrossFit because of the functionality it provides for every challenge life versus just bodybuilding or power lifting. CrossFit forces you to break through mental barriers and past what you thought you physical or mental limit was.
We have something at CJP that I see and appreciate at every CrossFit gym I’ve ever vistied: a community of capable, caring judges and athletes of all shapes and sizes united under one goal of helping each other to get as fit as possible. That was my expectation when I showed up here on Day One (June 2015), and that perception hasn’t changed at all in the four years since.
