Mark and Sarah, Hope all is going well.
Here are a couple of pics from the Selkirk Mountains on a ski mountaineering trip I just returned home from. Summited some awesome peaks and skis or bootpacking up and then the ski down in some untouched powder.
CrossfitCapeCod did me well. I was able to skin up the mtns on skis for 7+ hours a day with little problem particularly considering how little running I did.

The ladies deserve their props! I am always hearing how impressed people are by the level of fitness of the 'Girls' at C3. The pictures below certainly testify to that fact. Everyone did really well today on a really challenging WOD but the thing that stood out today was that 8 females did their pull ups Rx'd! Great work ladies!

If you would like to add in CrossFit Endurance I will be posting 3 CFE WOD's per week, early in the week you can intersperse them into your normal CrossFitting, tinker with it and make sure that you recover and pay attention to good nutrition. Sometimes we will run during WODs or as the WOD and that will negate one of the CFE WODs.
This week they are...
1. Choose ONE of the following sports
Swim, Bike, Run C2
Goal is to use maximum effort for 2 min interval.

3. Choose ONE of the following sports:
80% for the first half, 90% for the last half. Choose distance based on your event.

It has been 1 week for the "Paleo/ Free Time Challenge" and the response has been really good-so far no burpee box jumps! I know for myself it has been a real nice deterrent when the unnecessary urge to have something comes up. Free night was great-beer pizza ice cream-the works. Let us know how it is going for you in the comments.
Tim is coming home! We are ecstatic to hear that Tim is returning home- stay tuned, party announcements after further details!
Anyone that would like to join us Monday to cheer on McGrail as he runs the Boston Marathon please let me know and we will make arrangements for rides etc if you would like.

The GREAT Duatholon for the
Boys and Girls Club of NCM
At the Doyle Reservation
The region’s first Duatholon (Run, Bike, Run) is set for Sunday, May 23rd. This family friendly, community based event is sure to sell out fast! What better way to Kick off your Summer and Kick start everyone’s activity levels than participating in a little race that has something for EVERYONE! It’s sure to be fun filled day. So Get Up, Get Outside & BE GREAT!!! For the Boys & Girls Club of NCM. Participants may choose to compete as an individual or as a two or a three person relay team. Kids and parents are encouraged to form relay teams or ask about being teamed up with a Club Kid. The run course is completely off road through Pierce Park’s naturally landscaped grounds and gardens. The bike is a loop course on historic and scenic Abbott Avenue.
5 Rounds For Time Run 400 30 Box Jumps 24/20 30 Wall Balls 20/14
We have 11 Participants in the paleo/free time challenge!
Drew and Jane Nettie and Heather Erin-Yes you Erin Myaa Kristin and Ken Nicole Mark and Sarah
(To the newbies please ask myself, Sarah, Nicole, Kristin P., or McGrail if you have any questions-don't be shy!)
Strength without size: How to get stronger without getting bulky Staying weak because of how it might make you look is the same as staying illiterate for fear of appearing nerdy. Women have somehow been sold a false bill of goods when it comes to working out. Here’s why flapping your arms around with purple dumbbells is not typically helpful.
Starting April 6th any participants of this challenge will adhere to "Paleo Nutrition"- Meat and Veggies, Some Fruit, Nuts and Seeds, Some Starch, and No Sugar. 7 days per week. With the exception that each participant can have one "free time" per week. The free time will be a generous CONSECUTIVE 4 hour time period where you can eat anything that you choose in any quantity. You might like this you might not but it is only 3 weeks. The one catch is that should you deviate during a time when you don't have a free time- the penalty is 50 burpee box jumps-per serving. Anyone who wants to participate needs to sign up by 7pm Tuesday here in the comments and name one thing that you are looking forward to on your free time and when you are planning on it. On April 30th we will have a Free Time Party with all the goodies after a team workout-clear your calendar!
If you need help menu planning or shopping approach myself or Sarah-Looking forward to this one!
