Are You In Contention for a Prize?
With only two days of voting left in the CrossFit Ireland Awards could you be in contention for this prize??? Carefully selected by the team here at CrossFit this is sure to make your Christmas that little bit special.
Please don’t forget that you may vote as many times as you like and that the closing time for voting is Friday at 5pm. There’s fierce competition in all categories so far so you could be the one to sway it! The Prizes will be awarded Saturday at 11am.
Oooh what is it?? I want one. It looks so pretty. Go on, go on, go on, tell us what it is……….
Sorry guys, when I looked up the Crossfit Dublin site I presumed we where changing our name to go with our new location. Especially when i seen it was located in Sandyford ! Doh ! That’s what I get for half reading the site.
I do still like the colours. But on reading a bit more, it’s very off putting and for an aul ‘joe soap’ like myself that just likes to train I would feel to imtidated to go to it. It remains me a bit of those american sites who only want elite athletes !
Our own site it much more relaxing, friendly and with the scores posted each day, show we train hard.
How long have they been going for ? Cos they obivously cut and pasted cos thousands have used their workouts posted every day !
Not telling you Marianne, you will see on Saturday though
You are so mean. Just tell me, I won’t tell anyone
i though the crossfit sites had to post the WOD on them and the crossift Dublin doesn’t have it there from what i can see
On the saturday note what it happening day time ? as Doctor told me yesterday i need rest more rest followed by a side order of rest , and tbh Rest is boring as hell
Whohoo The Chief! Not… I think we last did this on 11 July and it nearly killed me!
Just voted again!
Nasty looking workout
Ahhh i though that looks easy then i noticed i missed the max rounds on 3min part.
Ah Lisa,
Following the FF party Line I see, Vote early and vote often? Ha ha
Yeah first glance I didn’t take any notice either but then I noticed max rounds in 3 mins for 5 cycles. That could up being a hell of alot of power cleans.
I did a 3 round version of ‘The Chief’ a while back… Hellish, hate to do the full 5 rounds.
Whew, so glad today is a rest day.
Enjoy.
Hey guys! Been a while since i’ve looked you up – that should teach me. SO….. WHAT? We’re De-Affiliated? I swear i’ve been to the gym this week – holy my-own-little-world. Ah well, i’ll stick with Robb over CrossFit any day. If i remember correctly, we’ve been de-affiliated before. Wonder if this one will stick? Maybe Robb’ll change the name to XFit Rogue or the like – he does like to stick it to ‘em. Hey you guys should take a mass-holiday and come visit us non-crossfit crossfitters in NorCal.
Tony just love that comment!!! Great stuff.
We’re quite removed from HQ over here across the pond but a few of us here have been following the soap opera that has been going on recently. It really does not reflect well on HQ at all. Seems like anyone who disagrees with HQ is culled. So much for the Open Source system they tout.
Does this mean NorCal cannot compete at the crossfit games? That would suck. HQ are looking worse and worse, now regular crossfitters are being put out.
Oh – Hey, I need to clarify – Robb n Nicki de-affiliated themselves the first time – it wasn’t striped. And i’m not sure if it means we can’t put someone up for the games, but we’re definitely out for the affiliate cup – which i was going to be a part of. bummer dude.
Eamonn out of interest what was the reason for Rob Wolf & Crossfit Norcal being deaffiliated?
I didn’t see the specific reason given for the de-affiliation but it all started with the problems at the black box summit which you can read on robbs log. Bullshit reason given to why he was removed as the Nutrition SME for Crossfit and I presume another one given for the de-afflication. Anyone know what it is?
Haha very good Tony! Im trying to sway the vote..ha!
the deaffiliation thing was alluded to by dale saran:

Apparently affiliates signed something saying they wouldn’t make fun of CF….

Colm,
As a suggestion before the year ends, how about doing a Crossfit Total? I know Stephen and the huggening lads would like that
Im definately up for a Crossfit Total! Count me in!
