She runs CrossFit Invercargill and has now qualified to compete in LA for the second year in a row. Amazing athlete!!

CrossFit Birkenheads final placing was 18th, a great improvement after qualifying in 27th place. The big highlight was when Bellz and Shaun annihilated the dumbbell snatch workout giving us a first place with 5.29, 20 sec ahead of second place!

The team has been amazing this year, improved so much since the workouts were released 4 weeks ago, old PB’s getting smashed for reps. We had a great support crew of Jaime, Que and Richie. They were non stop cheering us on with huge enthusiasm over the weekend. We are lucky to have had them there, I’m sure they’ll be gunning for a spot in the team next year!

Strength:

Thruster 4 x 3 rep

W.O.D.
