• Crossfit Novem
• Grace & Glory Yoga
Check-in starts at 11 a.m. The first workout will begin at 12:30 p.m. and the last will be at 2:10 p.m.
After finishing, participants will want to head back to The Local for a party where they can refuel with food and drink, including Sweetgreen and Weckerly's Ice Cream.
Tickets for the fitness event are $25 per team. The fee will go to Make the World Better Foundation, an organization that works with communities on urban redevelopment projects with a focus on youth, community engagement and the arts.
