What's even more interesting is that the former CTO of Crossfit has been posting in the parallel thread over at PMenu. He hasn't posted any juicy details of what it's like to work for the Gangsta Limp but a CF loyalist wouldn't be caught dead posting there unless they were defending the kool-aid -- which he's not.

Also hilarious that only now are they looking for someone with tech exp. The Crossfit Open failed miserably because their dev was probably some community college web dev dropout who failed to predict that 30,000 people would be submitting videos and that you know, you might need to actually test it ahead of time.

Relatively. Certainly compared to the supposed doses of modern powerlifters.

motherfucker, just 'cause i like my wimmenz lookin' like teenage boys don't make me gay.

the sexes at that age aren't sufficiently developed to have statistically differentiated sexual characteristics, therefore the worst you could besmirch me with would be bisexual hebephilial tendencies, nigga.

I'm not fearless.
I have fear.
I'm too scared to run 3.1 miles.
Someone please show me how to be elite.

Wut? Fearless? I once upon a time participated in a kiddie triathlon for 10-14 year olds and the running part alone was 10k. Swimming I'd estimate like 500m. #-o

My sister in law with a bum knee fearlessly competed in a 5K a few weekends ago along with the rest of the modestly overweight, middle aged crowd.

I don't think she wore SKINS. She just wore some old sweat shorts and a free Tshirt they gave out at the race. She was not required to wear the Tshirt, however, so Reebok must not have sponsored said race.

I'm also not certain whether a Cultfister won said race, but surely many must have entered considering it was a large race.

10k bike? Isn't that a warmup rather than a workout?

They seem mathematically challenged. Let me help.

2.5k run x 2 = 5k run.

There you go!

Who is more fearless: the Fearless 5K run-joggers in SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA (notorious for its harsh, unforgiving weather that is not for the faint hearted)...

or The Diva?
Ran Stevens creek 50k yesterday and it was all good until 4.5 miles with I fell. I was running downhill fooling with my ipod not paying attention, and bam. I went sliding on my left side. My hand and thigh got pretty shredded. I was ready to bail, but jumped up and cleaned the blood up a bit and kept going.

I was much slower then I had wanted to be but was happy to make it to 20 miles in 4:45. I was kinda thinking of quitting there, but the winner Jean was so helpful at getting me what I needed I somehow just kept going.

At this point it was getting hot and I knew it was going to get ugly. I could tell how bad people were looking that it was going to be tough climbing back out from the turn around. When I saw my friend Fast Jerry not looking so pretty, I thought yikes !!!I hope I can make it back out and get to the finish ;-)

I was happy to finally get to the turn around. I refueled and got ice in my bandanna to put around my neck. My energy was totally gone, and I just inched my way up the steep climb. I only had 6.5 miles to go but it was brutal.

I was exhausted on that climb and pretty much walk most of that 6.5 miles to the finish. I did pass 4 people in that section so was happy ;-)

I finished in 8:19 didn't think I could be so slow running a 50k but after falling and having run a hundred miler the week before I was happy I made it.
Bitch ran for 8 hours straight on rough terrain in the summer heat with a fall and after running 100 miles the week before.

Bitches be crazy, Bmack!

So does BMack quietly slink out of the room when the Diva walks in, or is he so insulated by his clueless egotism that he continues to talk shit to anyone who would listen when he's in her actual shadow in addition to the metaphorical one?

They run the whole thing twice. According to the site:

( 375M SWIM + 10K BIKE + 2.5K RUN ) × 2 = FEARLESS

Damn. 100 miles the week before. Shredded her leg 4 miles in to a 31 mile race. A DNF would be understandable here, right? Shit no! Let's wipe the blood off, turn the heat up, and pass some bitches going up a nasty hill.

Does she brag about it? Host a cert? Let it slip that she was a Navy SEAL? Hell no, this is just another entry in the Diva's workout log. BMAC is a such a fraud.

So meth-calves and Bmac were super tight. I think they might have dnfed the Diva together.

Seriously...how the fuck can you sit up and yammer about how your program is the best for endurance when you have the Diva around who does XF for shits and giggles sometimes, and then runs a million miles a week.

And she's in her late 40's.
One of the downsides of the Internet is that it allows like-minded people to form communities, and sometimes those communities are stupid.

OK, so I now know what fearless means. It means changing the goalposts so that their new format can't be compared to the standard sprint triathlon. Got it!
