South Central

1st Place in the South Central Region.

What a weekend. What a Hot Weekend. I have to say its one of my favorite times of the year. I get to see a lot of friends, I get to compete against them, I get to cheer for them, and I get to make new friends.
The Sport of CrossFit is growing and evolving each year. I'm just lucky I have been able to be a part of it for the last 3 years. We had a great venue, hot as hell, but a great spectator venue. Its some of the best judging that I have seen. There where a few bad calls, but you will always have that. All and all the best judging. All the staff was great, Matt and Pam did a amazing job. Thank y'all, every one that helped.
My big thank you goes to the Bayou City CF Community, all I can say is it was amazing to be on the floor hearing y'all scream for us. Its the loudest I have ever heard. I love y'all.

To our team, y'all did amazing. I am pumped to be going to The Games with y'all. Like I said its not about you its about the team, Train for the Team.

The Regionals

So its here 2011 Regionals. A lot has changed, the venue is in Tomball, everyone knows the WOD's, and I am competing on our Team.

The issue with knowing the WOD's for me is, all I have done in the last month and a half is specific training, specific movements. I believe my GPP is down. For the first time in a while I did a solo WOD and it kicked my ass. That's no ones fault but my own. Everyone has said "what about the unknown, that's CrossFit". I agree with that statement. I know last year a lot of people where crying about our Regional WOD's where harder or not hard enough. I guess this was a way to say everyone is doing the same across the world. I see the reasons, I just don't like them. You can't make everyone happy. Adapt and overcome.

Tomball, TX, Damn its going to be hot. I love it. I told Charlie G. the other day I drive around with my window's down to get use to the heat. He laughed at me and said I was crazy. I was in Oklahoma last weekend, and you can feel the difference. I was out in the sun all day, no sun burn. If your out in the sun here, you will be cooked well done. Take a knee, drink water.

This year I am going team. I have a couple reasons for that. One is I want this to be a start for Bayou City CrossFit in the Team comp. Our team has been training hard. We meet up 4 to 5 times a week, either as the group or WOD partner. We had a Team dinner last night, and all I can say is we are ready. All I can promise is we will be out there giving it 100%.

Good Luck to all competitors.
Lets Go Team, Game Day.
