The 2010 CrossFit Games announcements… COMING SOON!

We are going to launch the 2010 Games website in a few days. There will be preliminary information available immediately on the entire season of qualifiers. This year, there will be 13 Regionals around the world that all take place in May. But unlike last year, you now have to qualify for the Regionals (with a few exceptions in continents with sparse populations of CrossFitters). Feeding these Regionals will be approximately 30 Sectional competitions, which will be open to anyone. The Sectionals will take place from mid-February to late March. There will even be a Sectional held as one of the events at the Arnold Classic in Columbus, Ohio. Registration for all events worldwide will hopefully launch Monday, December 21st through our dedicated Registration Website. We will do our best to allow everyone in who wants to compete, but at some point we may have to cut it off. Spectator attendance at most Sectionals will be limited, so you'll want to act quickly.



Coach Maribel, Susan, Pam and Cara are all smiles after a tough WOD today!

PALEO RECIPE
"Meat Cubes in Tomato Sauce" by Clodel
Instead of spheres, making cubes is much faster. The shape gives the traditional meatballs a twist. Since they don't roll in the pan, it's easier to sear all sides.
1 jar of basic tomato sauce
1 lb. ground beef
1 lb. ground pork
1/4 c chopped italian parsley
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 egg
1/4 c grated pecorino romano (not paleo)
2 tsp dried basil
1 tsp salt
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 c full bodied red
Mix all the ingredients except the wine and tomato sauce into a bowl. Knead until well mixed. Dump contents to a cutting board and shape into a rectangle that is 1" deep. Using a knife, cut vertically and horizontally to form 1" squares. Heat olive oil in a pot. In batches, sear cubes in pot. Don't overcrowd so it gives it a chance to brown on all sides. When the last batch is finally seared, add the wine. Let sizzle for a little bit. Add your tomato sauce and simmer for 20 minutes.
