Tracking Crossfit?

Good morning,
I am trying to track my crossfit workout but there is no "crossfit" in the database. I tried it with a space between the words as well and nothing. Anybody else track crossfit as something else? Ideas on how to track this?
Thanks!

    I track it as calisthenics. I believe there are 2 options. I would highly recommend a heart rate monitor like the Polar chest strap one on Amazon for like $50. I logged for almost a year incorrectly before I got one and saw how much I was actually burning. I typically burn 400-600 per hour class, but used to log only the WOD time as vigorous and the rest as moderate. Hope that helps!

    I have been calling it "circuit training". Gives me about 500 calories for a 60 minute class because I only put in for 50 mins to account for the rest time. Even though it doesn't feel like rest during the class.
