7th Annual Rhonda's Burpee Challenge!
The 7th Annual Rhonda’s Burpee Challenge is scheduled for July, 19 2020! The intense cardio fitness challenge takes place at CrossFit Hydro PLUS several other Omaha gyms. This event is in honor of head coach and owner Justin VanBeek’s mother, Rhonda, who lost her battle with colon cancer in 2014.
For the challenge, two-person teams will complete 224 burpees in 20 minutes. “The number 224 is significant to us because Rhonda was 56 years old when she died, and she had battled cancer for four years. So, 56 times 4 is 224,” said Lisa Dempsey, a member of CrossFit Hydro and one of the event’s organizers.
Last year our event raised over $12,000! Will you be a part of this great Omaha tradition?
