Crossfit Intense Games

Sorry about being on hiatus for so long.  I took a break from working out for about a week to allow for some much needed rest and recovery.  Along the way I went to Fairmont with Patrick and some more of the Crossfit Thunder crew and played cheerleader as they competed in the Intense games.  The Crossfit Intense Games were just that INTENSE.  The Thunder crew definitely represented us well. 
The games were composed of four WODs.  WOD 1: 10 minute AMRAP (As many reps as possible) 50 double unders then overhead squat with a kettle bell (1 pood; 1.5 pood) as many reps, if the kettle bell fell below the head there was a 50 double under penalty, after the 10 minutes contestants were then given three minutes to complete as many kettle bell swings as possible.  WOD 2: 15 minute AMRAP Burpee Barbara (20 burpees; 30 pushups; 40 sit-ups; 50 squats).  WOD 3: 90 second AMRAP with atlas stones. WOD 4: Sandbag Run.
It was amazing to watch the competitors and their determination during each workout.  Sara was awesome at Atlas stones and brought home the trophy for that event.  Overall, Sara finished 5th which qualified her to compete in the WV games.  Great job girl.  A lot of my fellow ladies competed in the non-RX division.  Katie took first and Ashley took third in that division.  Awesome job ladies.
Congratulations to all who competed.  You all are awesome and you all inspire me:)
