Events anyone?
Training for something is always more effective from a motivation standpoint than training for the sake of training. Taking part in a fitness event can provide that extra motivation, that accountability for your training. Fortunately there are two events that are coming up that can be that kick in the pants you’re looking for. They are:
5 peaks trail running series on Whistler
CrossFit BC Summer Games
The unfortunate part is they are both on the same weekend. And even though CrossFit can give you super powers, I still don’t think you can be in 2 places at the same time.
They are both on the weekend of the 21st. I’ve heard through the grapevine that some of you are interested. Maybe a show of hands to get a posse started would be great. I know I am in…..just undecided on what event.
The info for 5 Peaks is here.
For CrossFit info, I’m in the midst gathering more details. If you have questions in the meantime, don’t be shy.

I’m in the city on sunday, and will get more details on what to expect. I believe it’s a one day deal.

Hey Jords, there is no info online and the poster link didn’t work. Let me know what the story is as well, please!

So far, here’s what I know. There’s an advance category, and a beginner. There are only 60 total spots, which is 15 by division:
mens advance
mens beginner
womans advance
womans beginner
I posted the “standards” for each category in the gym. I did send them an email to get more info. So I might find out a bit more before sunday….

Would like to do the Games if its one day and I can swing my sched. Please find out if there is a mens expert category.

I thought for me the Old Beginner category might work, but maybe I could fly out and compete head to head with Ru in the new Expert category.

Bruce, I’m just trying to look as good in my 40s as you do in your 50s.
