CrossFit Conquer Invitational

Last weekend Kris competed in the CrossFit Conquer Invitational here in Denver.  It started at 9am and finished around 430pm.  It was incredibly hot all day and the entire day was outside with little to no shade.  All the athletes were getting drained just from the sun alone.  Even some people in the crowd got heat rash!

Here are the details of the first two events of the day: 

WOD #1:

In 14 minutes complete as many rounds as possible of:

10 Front Squats (135#M/95#W)
10 Burpees
30 Double Unders

You can bring your own rope if you want!

WOD #2

For time:

50m Overhead Walking Lunge (45#M/25#W)
400m Run with sandbag (70#M/35#W)
50m Overhead Walking Lunge (45#M/25#W)

There is a 10 minute cutoff on this workout.

Kris did very well! Placed 20th out of 32 guys.  It was his first time competing and I think now he may just be hooked.  The first workout was a "tough" one for Kris for he isn't the biggest fan of burpees or double unders. 

WOD #1

WOD #2: Kris killed this workout...you can see from the picture how far ahead of everyone he was.

WOD #3 was a chipper, barely anyone finished.  Even of the the guys who placed in the top 3 didn't finish this one.  Kris did awesome at it though, nearly finished!  Had 100m left to run....

It was a great competition! Kris rocked and it was incredibly fun cheering him on.

Good Job Kris!
