CrossFit, sprinting and paleo... Let's see how this goes

Well, because of work I am unable to compete in the opens to try and score a spot in the regionals... Yeah I am destroyed about it, but the only plus side is that I have 12 months to go for the 2013 games. Have to wait a year for it to come around, but I "should" be a better athlete by then.
