CrossFit Games 2009

http://games.crossfit.com/competition-info/announcing-the-2009-crossfit-g.html#comments

The official dates for the 2009 CrossFit Games will be July 11-12, 2009.

The exact format of the Games will not be announced until July. It is likely to be quite different from the 2008 format.

The 2009 Games will not be open enrollment. There will be no scaling. You must qualify to enter. Adequate performance in the 2008 Games will count. There will be a series of qualifying events around the country (world) in May, 2009.

More details to follow here over the coming months.

is anybody as excited as me to hear more? or as excited to compete in the qualifying?

hopefully it will be a competition. but i'm thinking it may just be something to make sure you can perform movements with proper form and at prescribed weights.

hey berb. read this:

Additionally, there are some exciting times coming up for CrossFit Milwaukee, with more specialty certifications and the possibility of a CrossFit Level 1 Certification sometime next year. If the last one caught your interest, email me at ryan@crossfitmilwaukee an let me know. The more emails I can forward to CFHQ, the quicker we can host this event at CFM.
