864 STRENGTH + CONDITIONING – Gunny’s Blog / Wednesday 03.25.2020 / Day 1

864 Strength + Conditioning – Support YOUR Community. Support YOUR Country. Support YOUR 864 Crew.

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
-Romans 6:23

Every morning, read seriously and reverently a portion of the Holy Scriptures, and acquaint yourselves with the history and doctrine thereof. It is a book full of light and wisdom, will make you wise to eternal life, and furnish you with directions and principles to guide and order your life safely and prudently. 
-Matthew Hale

After some serious soul searching we have made the difficult decision to temporarily close the gym for what we hope will be a short period. In the best interest of everyones health and safety we will not have workouts after today’s 5:15a.m. and 8:00a.m. groups. We hope to resume our normal routine as soon as possible. We will continue to closely monitor the recommendations from reputable sources such as the CDC and the conditions of our state in particular from DHEC, local health officials and guidelines provided from Governor McMaster’s Office. We love what we get to do each day and we feel blessed to have the amazing community that we call CrossFit864. Our goal has always been to provide a safe environment where anyone and everyone could come and feel welcome and work toward living a healthy life and we are thankful that you allow us to be part of that every single day. We feel that it’s our responsibility to take every precaution to help control the spread of COVID-19. We will continue to post workouts here that you can do at home with little or no equipment. We will also set up a group page where we can not only post your workouts but we can continuously encourage each other through this difficult and challenging time. We are always here for you guys! We appreciate all of you and we will pray for all of you and we hope this is all behind us soon. If you need anything please let us know. Remember Faith NOT Fear.

Thank you for all of the very supportive text messages and calls today regarding our decision about CF864…It really means a lot to us. No matter what the situation may be you guys always confirm that we have the most awesome group of CrossFitters anywhere. We are all blessed to be surrounded by such positive and encouraging people.
We will get through this together and we WILL emerge STRONGER!
We appreciate you more than you know! Jay and Janice
