Look at all those VFFS!
Everyone looks so fit. Sigh. I think I would have felt out of place if I’d gone. Still have 67 pounds to go. Maybe next year.
Yeah I definitely would’ve been out of place at 6 months pregnant. haha.
Not at all! There were people of every weight and fitness level, but I can understand if the photographers were partial to the alpha males/eye candy ; )
And the jealousy begins again! I want to go on a hike on the beach with the Primal crew!!!
Mark – You MUST come to the east coast in 2011!
Mark – You MUST come to europe too ! Are there european groker here btw ?
Yeah – come to europe as well! I am a Norwegian grokker!
I’m a Scottish Grokette, my brother is an English Grok and I’m busy converting loads of friends here in the UK!
I’m English, but I live in Italy…never heard of other Italian primals, though?
French Groker
Wow. It’s so beautifull to that there are Grokers from all around the world.
That meal looks familiar.
What a great time everyone is having. I’m inspired. LOVE the photos, and I hope you are able to make the videos.
I agree, super inspiring! And I love all the VFF. I’m taking mine out for a walk later
Thanks for the pictures…looks fantastic!
The green living presentation looks really interesting. I really like the fact that you have incorporated sustainability as part of the primal way of living.
I’m hoping for a roll-call, preferably with photos so I can match up the names I see all the time with some faces!
Very awesome!! Looks like a GREAT time, and super information being shared!
looks like a vibram five finger convention!
A Europe trip would be most welcome, Scotland would welcome you Mark! What about a PrimalCon with hunting in the Highlands???
I don’t care where it’s going to take place next year — 2011 Primal Con — COUNT ME IN.
The footage of silent running looks fascinating. I have just joined Crossfit and am starting to run again for the first time really since I was a kid. I’m sure my technique needs work. Anyone have any tips or good resources for this? Thanks
Natalie – congrats on joining CrossFit! I’ve been doing it for about 6 months now and loving it. Just remember to scale accordingly. As far as running technique, CrossFit highly endorses the POSE method, which you can find plenty of introductory videos on YouTube. I *highly* recommend subscribing to the CrossFit Journal. The amount of daily information, articles, interviews, and videos are WELL worth it. I think it’s like $20/yr, but it’s better than any magazine you can subscribe to.
Plus, you will find some amazing resources on the POSE running method by the very man who rediscovered it and refined it for mainstream. It’s definitely barefoot friendly, so check it out!
Hi Crisbee. Thanks so much for your enthusiasm and advice. I have just subscribed to the CrossFit Journal and have checked out some links to POSE. It is exactly what I had been looking for so thanks again.
This looks like a great time! I need to make it next year. Grok on PrimalConers!
Looks like so much fun. And the Dinner looks soooooooo YUMMY ( all the food looks Yummy for that matter) wonder what those Beef patties are made out of , I want one NOW.
That food looks awesome. Makes my protein shake that I’m about to have for breakfast look really sad.
I think we need labels on the pictures so we can know what all that yummy food is that we’re missing out on
I’m stuck on the picture of all those grilled steaks. I can actually feel myself drooling.
I haven’t been this jealous in a loooong time. Looks like a really great time!
That food looks absolutely delicious!
Who votes for Primal Con 2011 on the east coast?
I
I.
That food looks amazing!
Will recipes be in the Primal Cookbook for the FANTASTIC!! looking dinner you served on Day 2? I’m drooling!!
+1 for east coast Primal Con 2011
Holy crap. Barefoot Ted has some monster calves.
Oh my goodness. That fruit, that salad bar, the meat… looks amazing. And these photos make me so, so psyched to be getting my VFFs in the mail tomorrow!
My wife and I WILL NOT Miss PrimalCon 2011! The best thing is we will be able to drive to the Event! Congrats on what looked like an AWESOME Weekend Mark!
I’m trying to figure out one of the photos: it looks like a bunch of meatloaves. Did everyone get his/her own full-sized meatloaf?! Awesome!
Wow! Fantastic photos. Thanks for posting. Everything looks great.
All that food looks absolutely delicious. I just had my dinner, but I’m getting hungry again just looking at the pictures
Yes the foody looks super..nice to see a gathering where the foody looks this good and plentiful
