My first CrossFit Comp

CrossFit Brookvale’s 1^st Birthday Games

WooW My 1^st ever CrossFit comp…. I was so nervous at 4am :/ trying to stretch out in the frezzzzing cold waiting for my CrossFit sidekicks Breeza and Hayley, We made to Sydney 2 entertaining hours later…  my nerves went away as soon as I saw some familiar faces, This CrossFit community is so supportive It’s really awesome to be a part of it J

The rest of our team arrived a lil later, Shan, Bing, Loose, Dropbear, Barto… (and their better halves)  

WOD 1 90sec on each station

Pull-ups, DB squat cleans, sledge hammer strikes, knees to elbow (Adv. Toe tho rings) wall ball shots.

I Love this WOD a part from the wall balls (still sore from a 100 thusters)…  Hayley Smashed the sledge (new hidden talent )… Breeza did 48 pull-ups in a minute and a half Yewww…. The Boys had the bonus of a rope climb and wall climbs something brand new to most of them but they did an awesome job, Shan look like he was hurting on the Sledge but busted a shit load of Toes though Rings… Bing and Barto were paired up and went head to head almost colliding on the rings…

 Bing struggled under the 40kg DB squat cleans

Loose let ripe and seemed to just glide through it..

WOD 2 KB Turkish get-up, KB Windmills OHS, KB swings. AMRAP 10min

I found this weight very very light and got 6.1 rounds out without stopping, This WOD was defiantly a test of flexibility and coordination. Hayley was mucked around by her “unsure” judge on the first round lucky the crowd was able to help out, Breeza really felt this one the air was harsh and her reps went beyond full depth, I think us gals did awesome.. The guys were challenging their flexibility here Dropbear completed the entire WOD on the right side he push on and finished well, Shan’s technique was great.

Hayley placed 6^th Breeza placed 12^th I placed 2^nd
