May 5th is WORLD PH DAY
The WOD below is in honour of a 5 year old girl named Erica
Erica, was recently diagnosed with Pulmonary Hypertension. Pulmonary Hypertension or PH is a rare lung disease that affects heart function.
It is progressive and currently, there is no cure. For a quick summary of the disease, you can check out Erica’s blog –

We are asking our Crossfit Community for help to raise awareness for this very rare disease. Both of Erica’s parents are avid crossfitters and with the help of their coach and good friend, Chris Bonnell, they have developed a WOD called “Erica” that should leave you breathless, because PH leaves its sufferers breathless.
Friday MAY 5th we are all going to do the WOD below on behalf of Erica!
We also ask that you post it on social media with the hashtags #EricaWOD, #WorldPHDay, #PHaware and #PHAwareness
If you would like to donate to Erica’s cause you can on May 5th or a direct donation to:
