The NorCal Regionals start Friday

The Northern California Regionals for the 2012 CrossFit Games start this Friday, May 18th, at the Santa Clara County Fairgrounds. After participating in the Games for the past three years, team ARCFit will not be competing after falling just outside the top-30 cut-off (too many ladies having babies around here!).  Just the same, I would recommend getting [...]

Josh H. is our May Athlete of the Month!

Quiet.  Unassuming.  Reserved.  Three words that describe Josh H. when he’s inside the box.  But here are three more that are just as applicable: Determined.  Focused.  Gritty.  This guy never takes a night off when he comes in to train.  It doesn’t matter what he is facing in that particular WOD, he’s going to finish.
