The Crossfit Open is a world wide competition with over 200,000 athletes competing.
Held in February of each year, Lacey’s gym had 13 athletes that competed this year over the duration of 5 weeks.
Each week a new workout is released and the athletes have 4 days to complete the most reps, fastest time or as many rounds as possible in a short period and record their results.
This is an awesome way to test yourself and monitor your progress from year to year for every Crossfit enthusiast from beginner to advanced.
This year we had a young lady compete in the teens (scaled) division and finish 3rd in the WORLD, That’s right, in the world!
This year was Maddie’s first year training Crossfit and her first competition.
She quietly went about each workout 2 and sometimes 3 times in the 4 days before handing in her final results each week. She quickly climbed her way up the ladder.
Determination and dedication are two words that come to mind when sitting back watching this young lady go about each workout. Head down bum up and get the job done.
This was an absolute pleasure to witness and I can just imagine what’s to come in the future for her.
Well done Maddie from everyone down at Laceys gym
