Mel, that looks like a few of my shots.

Shali, Don’t get me started on those stupid free throws. We got there right after the “winning”team got there. And 4 of their members made their shots right away, then one member (who shall remain nameless) took FOREVER to make the shot. And they would not allow us to filter in and take our shots at the same time. They were on their way before we could even get a chance to shoot. Thus our 3rd place finish. We won’t be so nice next year:)

Strange happenings in the greater Crossfit community:

As one of the many that attended Robb’s nutrition cert and getting a feel for the man’s integrity I must say this is a little disheartening to here.

Wow…CHANGE is on the horizon! Which is pretty much the only thing we are all guaranteed!
Thanks for the heads up Patrick.

VERY interesting post by Robb Wolf. Lots of drama in the higher echelons of CFHQ for sure. I felt a similar sense of dissatisfaction with HQ from Mark Rippetoe and his staff at the Barbell Cert this last weekend. The vibe was certainly “We are telling you to do this, and that this is important, and CFHQ will tell you something else. You’re an adult, learn what you need to and then make your decisions.” Hmmmmm…..
Comment by Jeff S. — November 24, 2009 @ 2:19 pm
I was under the impression Rip was no longer affiliated with CFHQ. Guess I was mistaken.
Comment by Dave-O — November 24, 2009 @ 3:28 pm
I don’t know if Rip is still affiliated or not with HQ, but I know that he stopped doing barbell certs, and Jeff’s was one, if not his last barbell cert with a crossfit label on the west coast.

Mel..being a member of the “winning team”, I totally agree with you on the Free Throw line. One shot, maybe two person, then to the back of the line. What a great race though, your team, Wilson team and Saskya- Team..all so close!!!
Comment by Mountain Goat — November 24, 2009 @ 5:23 pm
I had heard Rip wasn’t doing CrossFit certs anymore, but he is doing a CrossFit barbell cert at his gym on 12/12-13. I guess he is still good with HQ.
