Josh, you've been going on and on about some kind of "Crossfit Games" or whatever. What are you talking about? And what's the big deal? Well, I'll tell you what the big deal is....errr, ummmm, I'll let someone else tell you what the big deal is! In the article below you'll see just how far Crossfit and the Crossfit Games have come. From starting at a place called "The Ranch" back in 2007 with only about 200 total people in attendance (yes, that is including athletes!), to the Home Depot Center in Carson, CA with over 10,000 people in attendance, men's, women's, team and master's competitions, and a corporate sponsorship by Reebok in 2012. It's come a long way! Check it out!
The Evolution of the Crossfit Games
Also, just a little shout-out to my "region" which boasted the men's winner this year (and last) as well as 4 other men in the top 10! That's half of the top 10 from one region! The women were represented on the podium by Julie Foucher who came in 2nd! Yeah, the Central East ROCKS!!!
And another shout-out to Mentor's Scott Panchik for coming in 4th in his first year!
