Thought this was worth shooting your way:
CrossFit NYC, which I started as a side project ten years back, has since grown into the largest CrossFit gym in the world (by a factor of three).
It's a big enough opportunity that I'm making CrossFit my main focus for the next 18-24 months, taking a leave from Outlier to essentially build up the Equinox of CrossFit.
We're raising a $5m growth round, and are pursuing both an equity roll-up strategy (we just acquired our smartest two competitors in NYC), and aggressively opening new spaces (we've locked deals for awesome 18,000sqft foot locations at 42nd & Lex, Broadway & Fulton, and Spring & 6th Ave, to open throughout 2015).
Given our traction / track record / unique position, this is coming together fast; we already have the first $2.5m locked down, and we should close out the rest within a couple weeks. Deck attached. Would love to have you in,
