I. Rugged Manic 5k Challenge:
The Rugged Maniac deadline is coming up and you have until September 24th, 2010 to make your final registration. Anyone who has signed up let me know, so we can plan car pools and times to meet at Vagabond CrossFit on Saturday, October 2nd, 2010. The race will be taking place in Southwick, Massachusetts, which I estimate is about 1 hour and 30 minutes away. We should leave Vagabond CrossFit by 8:00 am to ensure we are on time and that everyone is ready for their time slot they have signed up for to run in the event.

I feel great today. The past couple days were really hard for me!! I was faced with MANY temptations because of family gatherings and I have been extremely tired. I think my body is finally adjusting though (thank GOD) because my energy level is much higher today. This Paleo challenge really tests your will power!!!

Sorry Jill (aka BF), dam those tuesday and thursday night classes… but it will change in October!!
I too feel like my body is adjusting to the new way of eating.. My energy level has been down. However, it has made me become more conscience of my protein intake throughout the day. Hopefully it will help soon!!!
