We will start the first CrossFit Littleton Paleo Challenge on November 10th and it will run through December 10th.
We will start by doing the CrossFit Total (the sum of the best of three attempts at the squat, the press, and the dead lift). We will also do a 500 meter row 3 times for an average.
For the next 30 days you will eat Paleo and stick to it. This is important! We will not require you to record or report your nutritional habits, but your end result will reflect how you did.
On December 10th we will again do the CrossFit Total and row. The person who has the highest percentage change in their average will be our winner.
The buy in is $10 and winner takes 80%. The other 20% goes towards a wine and cheese party on December 12th.
This might be a “watered down” version of most Paleo challenges out there, but I think for our first one we will give it a try.
Lorie Couse will head this up and if you have any questions please let her know.

I am pretty stoked to try this. In the meantime, I will go and eat my fourth helping of cheese fries! Just joking of course!
Yeah Paleo! I have been doing Paleo for about 2 months now with GREAT results. I have the Paleo book if anyone wants to borrow and I'm happy to share ideas of how to make it work with busy schedule, eating out, not liking to cook and saving $$ by mostly buying at costo!
Tara, which Paleo book do you have?

I have Paleo for Athletes by Loren Cordain if anyone needs it
