Josh, you've been going on and on about some kind of "Crossfit Games" or whatever. What are you talking about? And what's the big deal? Well, I'll tell you what the big deal is....errr, ummmm, I'll let someone else tell you what the big deal is! In the article below you'll see just how far Crossfit and the Crossfit Games have come. From starting at a place called "The Ranch" back in 2007 with only about 200 total people in attendance (yes, that is including athletes!), to the Home Depot Center in Carson, CA with over 10,000 people in attendance, men's, women's, team and master's competitions, and a corporate sponsorship by Reebok in 2012. It's come a long way! Check it out!
The Evolution of the Crossfit Games
Also, just a little shout-out to my "region" which boasted the men's winner this year (and last) as well as 4 other men in the top 10! That's half of the top 10 from one region! The women were represented on the podium by Julie Foucher who came in 2nd! Yeah, the Central East ROCKS!!!
And another shout-out to Mentor's Scott Panchik for coming in 4th in his first year!

Mentor's Panchik Representing!!
Mentor's own Scott Panchik will be representing his local Crossfit box at The Games this year! The News Herald did an article on him this morning. Read it here.
He placed fifth in the toughest of the Regional competitions, the Central East. He was competing against two former champs, Froning and Holmberg, and Froning's training partner Dan Bailey. This guy wants it, let's cheer him on Ohio!!!

I'm having a happy tummy month! (Atleast in anticipation....)
Not only is my favorite frozen yogurt place in the whole wild world coming to a new location just minutes from my humble abode....but now, one of my favorite new places that we found while on our family vacation last summer in Chicago is coming here as well!!!
Potbelly's is going to be opening a new site in Cleveland in the very near future!!!
Woohoo! Ok, that's all I got for you foodies out there right now. Seriously though, check out Froyo Twist in Mentor and soon-to-be in Concord for some delectable goodness in your mouth and in your tummy!
