CFT sitting in 30th!

So after 3 WOD's Team Taranis is sitting in 30th overall :) Woohoo! The only Canadian Team above CFT is CrossFit Vancouver.  I hope you are all able to find the standings and results on the Games site.  Small orange bar on the top right.... that will give you a look at the numbers.

Here are a few pictures to give you the flavor of the events.  I am also going to create a photo album in our site albums because I took 350 pictures and they don't load so easily on this blog.  I have a picture taking problem, I know!!

LuLu killing thrusters!!!

Flashy Thrusters!
















Ok, these pictures are taking to long to load.  We have to leave for HDC for opening ceremonies!!

Update Your Adobe!

If you have trouble viewing any of the live action, try updating your Adobe Player.  We had some issues last night... PeeBs was having a melt down hahaha!  Thank goodness DCon knew what to do!

I'm sitting in the hotel lobby with PeeBs, Prime and Globo eating a spectacular continental breakfast.  They have omelets, ham and fruit so all the CFers in the house are happy.  Naturally there are the usual things like waffles and cereals but its the eggs that are in hot demand! Poor Prime is waiting for more.

So, thats all I have for you now.  Our team is all here and looking good.  We also have Abe and LC here for cheering section and back up just incase we need it.  We are right next to Compton after all.

Thoughts from the Team while eating breakfast:

Prime: "I was shocked when PeeBs was up before 7:00 this morning!"
Focker; "I'm Awesome."
Globo: "Our rental car smells like urine."
LC: "I have a Taranis hat. It's white. It's cute."
Abe: "What's going on with this pass situation?? Did you know they have a porn channel here? Hey Bra', did you here about our taxi driver??"
LuLu: "Some chick walked into our room at 1:00 am."

That's all for now kids!!!

Registered and Checking it out!!

So we are taking a little lunch break and getting some air conditioning cool down in our hotel room right now.  Home Depot Center is awesome!! We went to get Alicia and the Team registered and I felt like a kid in a candy store with all the CF Celebrities walking around.  Funny how you forget the people you watch on all the videos are regular people too.  It was really cool to see people recognize DCon while we were walking and she even got a random "good luck" shout out from some people.  I was busy trying to take "from the hip" pictures of Mikko Salo.  Sigh.... I'm pathetic.  Right now I can look out my bedroom window and see Tanya and Josh Wagner sunning by the pool.  Chris and Reed are laughing at DCon and I trying to see what they are doing. lol

The rest of the Team will be showing up in the next few hours but for now I will just post a few pictures of the venue so far.  Other than the anticipation and excitement building, we don't have much else to report.  Be sure to catch all the live coverage thru the CrossFit Games site.  They will even have instant replay capability for some super highlights.

Tonight is the Pre-Games show on the live feed as well.  Team competition starts tomorrow at 9am and individual starts at 7pm.
