12 Labours Annual Golf Outing – Registration Now Open!

🎉 July Athlete of the Month: Treasure Robinson! Please join us in congratulating Treasure Robinson, our July Athlete of the Month! Treasure first joined 12 Labours not long after her husband, Coach Shawn, came on board in 2022. With his encouragement, she returned to fitness post-pregnancy with the goal of rebuilding her confidence and strength—and she’s been crushing it ever since. You can usually catch Treasure holding it down at the 5:30pm or 6:30pm classes, though she’ll occasionally surprise us with a 6am drop-in! Her favorite movements include Toes-to-Bar (T2B) and Handstand Push-Ups (HSPU), and she recently celebrated a huge milestone—her first Bar Muscle-Up (BMU)! Currently, she’s focused on continuing to build her aerobic capacity and fine-tuning her gymnastics. “The supportive atmosphere and knowledgeable coaches make all the difference! I especially love the friendly competitions with my peers—they challenge me to exceed my goals while keeping the experience fun and memorable.” Treasure brings positivity, consistency, and drive to every class, and we’re lucky to have her in our community. Way to go, Treasure—keep crushing it! 💪🔥

The 12 Labours Special Olympics program is more than just a CrossFit class. This program provides unique opportunities for individuals with special needs to maintain, gain, and challenge their mental and physical capabilities. Through our targeted skills and programming, we strive to improve and assist in their lifelong battle for increased and long-lasting independence. Over the past 3 years, our program has focused on increasing each athlete's strength, endurance, coordination, cardio, and neuromuscular performance. All of our athletes have made great strides in each area. The coaches and members have celebrated new PRs; ranging from independent sit-ups to lifting very impressive barbell numbers. The Columbia district has recently implemented performance tracking for each athlete's Olympic lifts (Squats, Power Cleans, Snatches, and Deadlifts) and introduced some higher-level skills. The athletes have surpassed our expectations with their abilities in new skills such as wall walks and jumping rope! The past 2 years, the Columbia class members have completed the CrossFit Open workouts as a group in the beginning of the year and have demonstrated an increase in independence and improvement in their skills. They again stepped up to the challenge of and exceeded expectations in the Community Cup. As the athletes continue to demonstrate overall improvement and capability with new skills; we will continue to introduce additional higher-level skills. Several of the athletes have turned their sights to officially competing in the Open workouts as individuals next year. Come check them out on Monday and Wednesday nights at the Columbia District. We look forward to continuing our work with these amazing athletes and are excited for the continued success yet to come! - Elizabeth Gilbert M.S. CCC-SLP, CF-L1, ATA
