If you competed in Regional Weekend #1 congratulations to you no matter where you finished. It was a great weekend for all the athletes and tomorrow I’ll give a shoutout to a special few.
All Regional Weekend #1 participants, whether you advanced or not. will not begin work until Saturday, May 25th. Take the next few days to recover, reflect and have a little fun. If you’ve advanced to the CrossFit Games in July, your work will be specialized and beyond the scope of the blog. For those of you who did not, your off-season begins. Congratulations again.
Also, over the next few weeks, I will be upgrading the blog (new name new address) and the program. This has moved from a labor of love to something much bigger and I need to provide the appropriate platform. This will (hopefully) come with a series of seminars with some heavy hitters in the game, a podcast, instructional videos, more integrated personal coaching, etc. Stay tuned.
