01/08/10 current update on South Central Sectionals on March 13th & 14th:
We are exactly 9 weeks, one day away from this exciting weekend.
Current registration numbers show:
-64 male competitors
-19 female competitors
-11 volunteers. In addition, we've had numerous emails from folks offering to volunteer. All volunteers need to register online at this point.
If you are planning to attend this two-day event, you will need to register online soon as either a competitor, volunteer or spectator. Spectator registration is required for everyone 12 years old and up (as of the day of the event). Kids under 12 can attend without registering. To keep attendance expectations reasonable, you can bring up to two kids per responsible adult. If you need to bring more than two, please contact Eric Barber directly to make arrangements. More detailed information can be found on the 2010 CrossFit Games website.
The cap is at 200 athletes total. 30 males and 30 females will advance to the Southwest Qualifiers on May 29th and 30th in Ft Worth, TX at GSX Athletics.
Athletes need to count on 2-3 workouts on Saturday, 1 workout on Sunday. When selected, these events will be reviewed by James "OPT" Fitzgerald (2007 CF Games winner), Dave Castro (CF Games Director) and Jeff Tucker (SW Qualifiers Host).
We are still working hard to secure an indoor space roughly 7,500 to 12,000 sq ft. with outside access and room for parking. Once official, we will be able to recommend and hopefully have discounts for nearby hotels.
Thanks, look forward to seeing you soon.

For those who missed our "Zone/Paleo" meeting on Saturday, we are challenging anyone interested to go STRICT Zone or Paleo for one month. The goal is to have everyone start with bodyfat measured, "before" pictures (can be taken by us at the gym, or yourself at home) and a measurable workout. Also, a personal food/exercise log needs to be recorded daily to mark progress. One month later, we will compare everyones results to see which of the two diets had the most significant effect on health, fitness and bodyfat levels. More of a science experiment, than a "contest".
Again, if you missed the meeting and would like your bodyfat measured, pics taken, etc., show up a few minutes early before class starts to get you started.
Rest Day!
