FROM SLO TO L.A.
ByWell what do you know; the sleepy little Central Coast has gone out and gotten itself a slight CrossFit habit. Rumor has it that people are gathering in droves on weekends to engage in something as bizarre as “competitive exercising” – Kenny Powers would be appalled. Do they do this for gobs of prize money, endorsements, or fame you ask? Shockingly, the only apparent rewards (for now) seem to be personal achievement, extraordinary fitness and health markers, and the joy that can only come when like minded individuals are involved in the pursuit of all things ridiculous.
When one of these exercise people was caught on camera and asked about his choice of daily fitness activities, the reply was short and curt. “I’m sorry” he said, “I’m a CrossFitter, I don’t do interviews with my shirt on…..GADOOSH!” and then he walked off into the sunset on his hands, leaving said reporter just a little bit more intrigued and a little bit weak in the knees.

Hotel gym has treadmills and dumbbells. The most interesting (and not insane) WOD suggested by my fellow CPC’ers will be tomorrow’s mission. 3-2-1-Go!
