Deadline to register is December 1st 2009. We are capping the event. Once we sell out that’s it no more entries. Lets make this a great event and allow fellow CrossFitters and affiliates to showcase the talent and passion for functional fitness right here in the OC.
2010 Orange County Throwdown has the fittest people in SoCal competing to be the fittest man and woman in THE OC. Thank you to everyone for wanting to compete and show your skills. What started as an idea in my head has become something much bigger than I could have ever anticipated.
You have been busting your tail getting in sick shape and now what. No better way than to test yourself against your peers in an unknowable and brutal test of wits and determination. Lets put the affiliate owners and coaches under the gun and see who is performing and who is not. We are in many ways responsible for your success. Your top dog in your box? But how will you fare against a much bigger pool? Competitions bring out the best in everyone. Our small box has blown up since we announced this thing. Everyone in our facility comes in with their game faces now ready to do battle. I hope your box and your coaches are taking your training and your fitness as seriously as we do ours. For some of you this is hopefully a launching board to the CF Sectionals in Feb. What a perfect opportunity to see where your weaknesses lie (yes you do have weaknesses) and to work on them before the qualifiers.
