After These Messages, We'll Be Right Back

I'm off to the 2011 CrossFit Games! I plan to keep busy this weekend, and may not have a chance to blog. But I'll be on Twitter, so you can follow me as I tweet out non sequiturs and unnecessary commentary about the Games.

But frankly, you shouldn't be doing anything this weekend other than watching the Games, which will run from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, and 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday. You can catch all the action via live video streaming on the CrossFit Games site, or watch the "Live Premier Coverage" streaming online at ESPN3.com.

And of course, if you're at the Home Depot Center this weekend and spot a panicky-looking Asian guy in a T-shirt emblazoned with the words "Nom Nom Paleo," "CrossFit Palo Alto" or "SICFIT," please be a pal and kindly direct him to the nearest restroom. Thanks in advance.
