My First Competition (Video)

Saturday, I took part in my first official Crossfit competition!

How does the average 'Frank' like myself take part?  Welcome the Crossfit Games Open... a new way of finding the 'Fittest in the World' by allowing anyone to take part.  A weekly workout is presented on Tuesday and you have until Sunday to submit your results from a Box that is legit, or upload a video that would somehow be judged.  I'm lucky enough to be a member of the baddest box in the land (seriously!), and everyone took part in it together.

I created this video too not only criticize myself on my form and performance later, but to capture what Crossfit is, and why I love it... the comradery, friendly competition, encouragement, and inspiration that exists amongst the Crossfitters.

So, grab some paleo friendly food (just kidding) and take a seat.  Enjoy 10 minutes of me fighting myself...



Special Thanks to Everyone you made this happen!  You can follow my official results/rankings at my Crossfit Athlete page.

Oh, and a side note.. hope to be like this one day!

Checking In

Just wanted you to know I'm still pretty active in Crossfit and following the Paleo eating habits at home.  I have so much I'd like to share because its been a month!!!.  Work and some personal life issues have consumed me pretty much.  Can't wait to find time to return to blogging for it helped me to easily track my workout progress and also just share random stuff.  Sometimes I just need to talk :)  I want to share my Paleo Results, my new pairs of FiveFingers, and the Music that keeps me going... and probably more random stuff like my next goals, corporate basketball, strength training... ummm... guess that's it for now.

Anyway, have to get back to work and thanks for continuing to stop by.  I'll reward you with a game of "Where's Frank-O?"
