Think he listed murph and eva as his favourite woekouts. Sick, sick individual.

Looking good for Mikko. He’s light enough to kill the run and strong enough to get through most of the deadlifts.

TBH there are no real surprises in the format this year. They did a long run in 07, it was a logistical nightmare so they cut it (and all of the other events) short in 08. Then everyone started training short and heavy, a lot of the guys on Pmenu started looking pretty smart and my guess is that CFHQ realized that the annual test of their functional movements was not as constantly varied as they liked.

My money says event 4 will involve wheelbarrows.

My other prediction is that Khalipa won’t be in the top 5.

Robbie –

You’ll notice last years games had a kind of “short and heavy” theme to them, and those kind of workouts have been very much in vogue for the last year in CF-land. I’d be willing to bet we’re going to see an awful lot of people in the CF community training for long off-trail runs over the next year.

Having no running in next years games would just be a fun way to fuck with them.

Pixie – That there is Annie Sakamoto, old-school CF ledge-bag. Other highlights would include:
