A little snow didn’t keep many of you from improving your general physical preparedness today. However, we regret to inform everyone that Doug did in fact stay home. Ya, feel free to sling expletives at him. Speaking of not showing up to things…
The free Saturday class has been cancelled for tomorrow. I know, this has killed everyone’s weekend. For this we apologize. We don’t apologize for that washboard stomach that Paleo + CrossFit is giving you though.
As for the culinary workshop at Avanti Savoia on Sunday, it’s on like Donkey Kong, baby. If the storm of the week suddenly turns in to the storm of the decade (which let’s be honest, it’s a bit early to judge isn’t it?), we will post an update about the culinary workshop. So check the blog every few minutes tomorrow and Sunday. Better yet, check the blog every few minutes for the rest of your and our existence.
James has officially crushed me on every MetCon I’ve done since coming off the strength cycle,

Thanks to everyone that attended yesterdays class. I hope that it was fun, educational, and inspiring. Please let me know if you have any ideas on how we can make this better next time. I look forward to your suggestions and comments. Please feel free to drop me a note (benslocum@avantsiavoia.com). I have also attached links to the recipe for the Hunter’s Chicken that was served.
