The Olympics seems to have affected all our lives in ways we could not imagine. Most noticeably attendance while there is a Canadian hockey game on. I am putting up Thursday's post a little early today so I can watch Canada play Russia in the quarter final this afternoon.
TBear, noticing that people's diet is probably slipping a bit during the Olympics, has graciously extended the Paleo Challenge to the end of March. To help us tighten up the laces in this last month, and forever more, Danielle Lovell (currently in pt with Fancy Pants) has hooked us up with Spud!
Ever wish you had more time to work on your muscle up? Slice time off a run? Did you know the average person spends 90 minutes a week at the grocery store? And the average spud! customer spends 9 minutes a week shopping online? Local bison, organic pork, lamb, salmon burgers and more tasty paleo-friendly groceries delivered to your door. Enter the code 'CrossfitVan' when you sign up at http://www.spud.ca, and get 10% off all of the produce (certified organic). Current spud! customers, just email .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)to get your account switched to the Crossfit Vancouver discount.
Thursday's Workout:
A Crossfit.com classic.
9 Squat Clean (155/100 lbs)
3 Rope Climb Ascents
5 Rounds for Time
Originally the rope climbs were legless. We are merciful. Don't forget to bring a long sock to protect your leg.
Much Love,
The Shepherd
- Hi folks,
I thought some of you might be interested to know that NBC Nightly News will be doing a spot on the Canadian Forces in Afghanistan, in which they will be talking about Lt Andy Nuttall. It should be airing tonight, or latest tomorrow. It will also be on their website http://www.msnbc.com

- AH! Hi all... After spending weeks pestering Sheppy to get that discount up, something doesn't seem to be working on the spud! website end. You can get the discount by emailing .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) (just mention that it's 10% off produce with code crossfitvan).
Our web developer is in Hawaii until Monday, it'll be fixed after that.
This is nearly as embarrassing as when snapped myself with a band doing ring dips and hit the floor last week. But that at least was kinda fun.
