    Hey dudes, love the podcasts and content. On the topic of the different camps (Mayhem, HWPO, PRVN, etc), and I know you have mentioned it before, I would be interested in seeing the camps get together and generate “something”. Whether that’s content, forum, community for competitor, advocacy for competitors, idk. I think it could be powerful.

    Great discussion. I've listened to a variety of podcasts talking about Dave's return and you can feel and sense the people talk freely, but with that bit of cloaking it a bit, as if they aren't sure which Dave Castro will be returning. The former mystery man, that appears to be dictator like or the newer, return for a second time around that will listen to more imput. Time will tell, but the fact that last time, before he was fired, Dave Castro didn't answer to really anyone. Greg Glassman let Dave run the competition side without much input, except to point out how much money they were costing him. With an investment firm, whose primary focus is to grow CrossFit to sell it for a higher price, they make moves quickly in situations that could hurt that potential sale in the future. I think the groundswell of mistakes, lack of communication and other aspects this year forced the Board to make a switch, rather than face even more negative press and outcries. If this doesn't work out then expect the Board to make another set of moves, including moving Dave out of Director of Sport just as quickly. It's how private equity works and not just to CrossFit. Hopefully, Dave and the team can deliver a great fan and highlight the athletes, otherwise, expect more changes.

    Rich, did you happen to hear about “J” Street when in DC? Last time we were there our tour guide mentioned that L’Enfant, when laying out the streets and names in DC he specifically skipped “J” because of his personal beef with John Jay-who allegedly had romantic interests in L’Enfant’s wife. It would have been adjacent or near the White House. History is always fascinating!

    Try incorporating some keto brick (Redmond real salt is also in them) for calories. Obviously you consume carbs to and the keto brick is only 10 carbs. But biking across country a few times a group of us love pairing it for calories. I’m low carb but my carb loving friends enjoyed adding them to. Which works in this case sense high intensity. 1,000 calorie in 1 keto brick. Our hunting/backpacking go to meal.

    Thrice in my life have I stood up and yelled in excitement at the tv during any crossfit games event. The sandbag lift, the skill speed medley and the capitol.
    Yeah Boz could probably tone down the curveballs, but the past year's games was wildly more entertaining from a fan perspective than any games ive ever watched. Keep it coming.

Something I believe the NBA does really well is lean on it’s athletes for ideas and opinions without having to ask the full spread of nba players.

    Rich you actually want to get as close as possible to the planned riding time before the event. By getting use to a similar amount of saddle time before helps you cope better on the event.

      @@CFProjectMayhem the theory we followed was to have shorter rides with higher intensity intervals during the week. Our shorter rides were around 40mile but not further than 50mile rides with one of those shorter rides dedicated to just hill climbing. Then on weekends we did “long slow distance” (LSD) rides. On Saturday’s we use to do race day distance at LSD pace. Get the legs and @ss use to sitting being in the saddle for that long.
      Couple of us had a few 100mile races a year and we always followed a build up that got us riding very close to the race distance for at least 3 times before the event. We got to the point we could actually race over the distance and not just hang on.
