Here is a revised timeline and tentative heat lists for Saturday.  We only have a handful of spots left before our cap, so this should be pretty accurate.  Please look over the heat lists and let me know if there are any corrections that need to be made.  This is all still subject to change.

Just a reminder that Thursday is the final day for registration, we will not be accepting on site registrations.

If you remember the food from last year, Alan is cooking again!  Athletes and volunteers will have first shot at the food, then we will open it up to spectators for a $5 donation.

We have a ton of people signed up, it should be a great day!

The final deadline for registration will be Thursday, Nov. 3, we will not be accepting on-site registrations.  If you will be registering late, we need to get an e-mail or phone call from you by Thursday in order to give you a place in the heat list. (alternative_athletics@hotmail.com)  If we reach our 60 athlete cap before Thursday, I will put out a notice to let you know.

Heat lists will come out later in the week, but here is a tentative timeline for the competition:

7:30am – Athlete and volunteer check in (Team WOD only participants can check in any time before 2:30pm)

8:00am – volunteer briefing

8:15am – Athlete briefing for WOD 1

8:30am – Heat 1, WOD 1 begins

10:15am – Athlete briefing for WOD 2

10:30am – Heat 1, WOD 2 begins

1:15pm – Athlete briefing for WOD 3

1:30pm – Heat 1, WOD 3 begins

3:00pm – Team WOD briefing

3:15pm – Team WOD heat 1 begins

6:00pm – awards, food

This timeline is subject to change due to adding heats for late registrations, but it should give you a pretty good idea of how the day will go.  You will notice THERE IS NO SCHEDULED LUNCH BREAK.  You will want to plan to eat in between your heats.  There is an Albertsons and a bunch of fast food restaurants just up the hill.

If you are bringing your kids to the event, it will be a long day for them.  We do have a small kids corner geared toward toddlers.  There is also a park just a few blocks away, if the kids need to let off some steam.

If there is anyone who is level 1 certified and will only be competing in the Team WOD, if you’d be willing to judge during the earlier part of the day, we could use you.  Get in contact with us via e-mail at alternative_athletics@hotmail.com.

Alright everyone I didn’t get a video done, but the second workout is going to be:

10 Minute AMRAP

5 Rope Climbs 15ft (beginners = 30 jumping pull ups, intermediate = 10 pull ups or 30 jumping pull ups)

3 Deadlifts (Elite 275# / 195#, Advanced 225# / 155#, Intermediate 185# / 125# Beginner 135# / 95#)

Descent of the rope must be controlled at least halfway down.  If you have never climbed a rope, they will be available for practice before and during workout 1 and we will try to have various instructors available.

Work out three will be disclosed the day of the event, but it is scalable and will be for time.  No special equipment is required for the third workout that would not be used in the first two.  Not finishing the third workout will not be a disqualifier.  We are thinking of a 15 minute cut off, but it is not set in stone, yet.

Your ranking in each event will be your cumulative final score.  In the case of a tie we will maintain the tradition of max meters in 2 minutes possibly with a twist.

Alright everyone, T-shirts are ordered.  There is still room for individual competitors, but it now costs $65 and you are not guaranteed a T-shirt.  However, since the majority of people are registered, we will begin releasing the format of the competition and the workouts.  In the individual competition there will be three workouts.  Only two of the workouts will be announced, but the third is a “Blast form the Past.”  You will have to have been CrossFitting for a while to remember the third one!

First Workout:

Second workout will be released later this week.

Hi everybody,

Just a quick note to let you all know that as of this morning I have 10 team registrations in hand, so the team registration is closed. We are considering adding a couple of team spots depending on how many individual registrations we get (we need to see how much time we will have after building the heat lists) I will keep everyone posted, but there are already a couple of potential teams on the waiting list.

There is still plenty of room left in the individual competition, so get those registrations in!  I have to have them by tomorrow if you want a t-shirt.

The deadline for registrations for our Pukie’s Bash 2 Competition is Friday, Oct 21.  I need to have your registration in-hand that day so that I can order t-shirts.

If you are a member of a team, make sure all of your team-mates have registered and paid.  There are only 2 team spots left as of this moment, and in all fairness, if I get a fully paid registration from a team I might have to bump a team that only has one or two members registered.  So get those registrations in!!!

There is plenty of room left in the individual competition, so don’t be shy, sign up!

Hey guys, sorry about the delay getting the link for this working.  I’ve got it right this time (I hope!) I replaced the link in the previous post, and here it is again so you don’t have to go searching for it.

REGISTRATION FORM

Hey everyone, I forgot to mention on my previous Pukie’s Bash post that we will be capping individual registrations at 60, and will be capping team registrations at 10 teams.  So register early (especially if you are on a team) to ensure yourself a spot!

We’re doing it again – The Pukie’s Bash 2 fitness competition will be held at Alternative Athletics on Saturday, Nov. 5th.

REGISTRATION FORM  (the link should work now)

This year we will be including both an individual competition, and a fun team WOD.
