CrossFit Running & Endurance Training

CrossFit Running & Endurance Training at GSX, Feb 21st-22nd

What's your CrossFit "Helen" time? It could be better in a weekend by improving your running efficiency.

Maybe you want to improve your 5k, 1 mile, or 400m times? Or your marathon? Do you hurt when you run? Do you suffer from shin splints, knee or hip pain? Improving your running efficiency may be the key to running both pain free and faster.

You will run less than 2.5 total miles over the weekend and spend 2 full days with Coach Brian MacKenzie learning the fundamentals of run technique. Learn how to utilize CrossFit and minimize oxidative overload to improve the performances of both your short distance and endurance athletes.

Brian Mackenzie is an expert in strength and conditioning forendurance athletes, and is the creator of http://www.crossfitendurance.com/ and a CrossFit Endurance Coach. He is a Level 3 CrossFit Certified Trainer and is a Level 3 POSE Certified Running Coach. Brian is the owner of CrossFit Newport Beach, and operates an internship for professional trainers. He has been a competitive Ultra Runner and Ironman Triathlete. He has competed in Ironman Canada along with several ultra marathons ranging from 50k to 100 miles including theWestern States 100 and the Angeles Crest 100. Brian has successfully used CrossFit as the cornerstone of his programming for endurance athletes, while supplementing sport. His athletes train sometimes a third of what the norm train with superior results.

Dear Affiliates & CrossFit Faithful:

I cannot express to you all, how proud we are to have been selected to host the Regional Qualifiers for our five states... Missouri, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, and Texas will be our representative states for which we offer the South West Regional Qualifiers; to be held in our very own "Hell's Half Acre", Fort Worth, Texas.

CrossFit GSX will be ready! We will put on the most professional, most organized, most exciting, and most competitive qualifiers for CrossFit Head Quarters.... and the CrossFit hopefuls. As you explore our registration link and information pages about the event planning for the Southwest Regional Qualifier - please let us know if we need to address anything for you or your participants.

There has been much interest in the way of sponsorship for this event. We are currently seeking sponsorships of multiple levels for participation from Affiliates, members, businesses, and friends of CrossFit. I hope that if your Affiliate desires to be of assistance to our Regional Qualifiers in anyway; that you please let Mike Deavers know by contacting him at miked@gsxathletics.com - we will take all comers who offer help to ensure that we make this qualifier the best in the nation. Please find the attached information for sponsorships. We are also developing price friendly hotel accommodations for participants and spectators.

GSX will be putting together a list of volunteers who will judge the participants. If you and your box have qualified trainers, coaches, and members who would like to be a part of our staff for the qualifiers please contact Jeff Tucker at tucker@gsxathletics.com. We will also be accepting loans for equipment from our Affiliate neighbors and CrossFit family to ensure that we have everything needed for the competition.

GSX will do its utmost to ensure that 2009 CrossFit Qualifiers will develop 5 men and 5 women to qualify for competition for glory and fame at the 2009 Games! I look forward to hearing from you and discussing any points of interest you may have to offer as we prepare.

State of the Union

On Jan 21, 2009 CrossFit at GSX will have completed its first year under its belt... And what a great inaugural year that has been. It would have been impossible to predict the effect CrossFit was going to have on our lives and the lives of those, who of their own accord stepped within our doors.

If you feel this banner year has been a good beginning - you ain't seen nothing yet! We have much planned in the way of certifications, equipment, events, programing, expansion, and positive changes for CrossFitters and those who want and desire real positive changes in their lives.

We have merely taken the first steps toward a brighter and more exciting future. Stay posted gang and come be a part of the CrossFit revolution at GSX. For those of you have have dedicated your time and efforts at GSX this first year - hold on to your socks! Its gonna get fast and furious in 2009!

Much Love - Tucker
