I'm somewhat disappointed in my CrossFit gym. About 9 weeks ago they started a "10-week 5K training program". I joined for fun. And around 30 people signed up and did the first few runs. Now around week 9 it's down to like two of us. And both of us appear to be RandMart-grade weird. But all the people who dropped out aren't sedentary. They all show up and lift heavy things every day and do the type of pull-ups that annoy the F out of non-CFers. Probably the difference is that running tends to be more solitary. You have to comfortable in your own skin for a while. And that's hard for some people (though a refuge for me).
There may be some selection bias here. The Mrs. and her crew are CFers. They all hate running. Though the sample size of her cohort is small, I wonder if people choose CF as an alternative to running, thus making them less likely to follow through on something like this.
My niece and her boyfriend own a CF gym and running, cycling, and rowing are regular parts of their program.
