When and how do I register?
Go onto the Crowdrise Site here and register! It is $20 to register and you have the next 4 weeks to raise an additional $30. There are awesome prizes for fundraising!! When you register there are 4 levels of difficulty to sign up for, Freestyle, Gameday, Challenger and Black Diamond.

But, What are these weird levels?
The levels are all about goals. You strive to meet the set number of repetitions for each exercise and push yourself to get them all. But, no, there is no one counting your reps each time to make sure you do them all.

Is that all, what happens on May 23rd?
Show up on the day of the event between 9am and 11am to sign in (arrive early to get an awesome dri-fit shirt), crush the circuit with a bunch of friends and then stay after the workout for food, the Euphemisms (a student band) and other festivities=)

Other clarifying Q&A:
Q: If I register for a team, do I end up going through the circuit with the entirety of my team?
A: No, you will go through the workout with another 10-15 people that you sign in with day of.
