Fight Gone Bad is a Crossfit event for charity giving to some very worthy causes. I thought this might be a good place to get the word out if you're doing it to help generate some more funds.

If you dont know about it, here's some info - http://sportsgrants.org/fgb6/

Give early, give often, or if you're a crossfitter, maybe raise some money yourself.

I am! I am the world's worst at wall-balls, but I am going to bust my tail as best I can in honor of those who have given much more than I ever could.

Damn. Wall balls was one of the few Crossfit things I liked! – sherpamelissa Aug 30 2011 at 1:56

I am doing it as well! I've raised well over what I anticipated. When I initially posted the event on FB, I got no responses, but when I sent a personal note to each and every friend (over 200) on FB, the response has been overwhelming! Good Luck you guys! :)

I've done FGB before (wall-balls are tough when you are only 5'2" tall!), but this year, I have already committed to take some friends climbing at Joshua Tree. So I saved up $200 and donated it in various amounts to all of my friends who will be doing FGB at my box (Crossfit Hollywood). Good luck to everyone who is participating!

Thanks. Wounded Warrior really helped some of my friends and acquaintances, so this means a lot to me. – gone2croatan Aug 31 2011 at 17:03

update: I actually ended up finding a company that donated 125.00 so I could do it. I even bought a shirt from them so I could wear it at the event to PR for them – Erin H Sep 19 2011 at 15:35

I am also. Sent out 2 emails and posted on facebook, and have had one person donate so far.

I post 3 x a day on facebook. I tag people that donated. I add facts (# of people effected) or quotes from benefactors.... that helps a lot when you are in your face..... *I have 75 from 5 people. That's other thing, I push for $5.00 donations – Erin H Sep 7 2011 at 1:12
