Welcome to CrossFit Pentagon: "It's OK to cry but you can't quit!"
CrossFit Pentagon is gaining ground at the Pentagon but is still far from a mature program. The Pentagon Athletic Center (PAC) staff is slowly embracing CrossFit, but there are no scheduled classes or any CrossFit-specific equipment that you would expect or hope to have available - rings, kettlebells, olympic lifting platforms with bumper plates, medicine balls, climbing ropes, etc.
The PAC is seriously looking into becoming more CrossFit friendly, and has drafted plans for a "Functional Fitness" area in the upcoming Phase II. This will be a racquetball-size area complete with all the CrossFit equipment you will need.
CrossFit Pentagon posts Mon-Fri WOD schedules and encourages athletes to team up in the gym and complete WODs together. All comments and feedback are welcome. Send comments to henry.rogers@pentagon.af.mil.

WOD: Wed, 18 Mar 09 CFit Pentagon
For time:
50 Ring Dips Run 400 meters 50 Push-ups Run 400 meters 50 Handstand push-ups Run 400 meters
Push-ups are honest push-ups. Handstand push-ups are "nose to floor".
I am an F-16 pilot currently "flying a desk" at the Pentagon and have been a member of the CrossFit community since Mar 06. I am a "Level 1" certified trainer.
Although CrossFit Pentagon has no scheduled classes, we have a growing number of CrossFitters that work out with me in the 0600-0700 time block.
If you have any questions, please contact me at henry.rogers@pentagon.af.mil.
