TypeKey & Comment Registration
Some of you may have noticed that we're now requiring registration with a service called TypeKey prior to commenting on a post.
Unfortunately, as our website has grown in popularity, we've also become popular with spammers, such that it's not unusual for me to spend an hour or two each day deleting spam comments (in the last couple of days I've had to delete ~500 spam comments per day).
The TypeKey registration process is relatively quick and easy. It requires you to register with a Member Name and Password, and then to validate your registration via email (so that TypeKey knows you're a real person). After you've done that, all you need to do is log in from the CFO Comments page (you don't even need to go to another site) prior to commenting. In fact, when you log in the first time, make sure you click the "Keep me signed in to TypeKey for two weeks" checkbox so that you only need to sign into your TypeKey account once every two weeks.
If you have any questions or concerns about the registration process, just send an email my way: info@crossfitoakland.com
I've posted a comment below. It's easy. If I can do it, anyone can!

Burpees....not so much.

P.S. I am scheduled for an evening walk around Lake Merritt tonight. After today's workout, I may just have to hobble...or be carried.
I know I say this every time, but today's WOD was SERIOUSLY the hardest workout I've done at CFO. And I didn't even finish the darned thing. I had to do, like, 21 sets of 1 on the burpees.
No where to go but up on that one!
