Yah yah, I know I've crossed over and am infiltrating the Tri group with CrossFit talk. I just thought this was interesting.
That CrossFit games (like CrossFit Olympics) start on Friday... or so everyone thought. SURPRISE! The game coordinators just announced that the individual athletes will be starting the competition on Wednesday with a modified triathlon at Camp Pendelton (Home of the USMC).
They will start with a 700m ocean swim to an 8k on a single speed mountain bike over varied terrain (including sand), followed by an 11k mountain run ending back at Camp Pendelton.
None of the athletes knew anything about this... it should be interesting to watch.

Here is the article about it. It says there is live radio coverage, but I'm not sure where you can pick up it up....
