This was such an amazing experience.
We had a great turnout for our first year! We had 45 competitors!

21 Deadlifts at 145lbs
aka freakin' heavy
So many WALL BALLS! lol
we used a 16lb ball.
me looking at the bar...
thinking... "DAMN it's heavy!"
and Alan yelling at me somewhere... "PICK UP the bar!" ;)
Alan deadlifting at 225lbs.
Jared, (or J-Dawg) rocking his 135lbs cleans
best CrossFit coach out there!
I ended up finishing in 9:35.
Overall, 7th out of 9 girls.
Not too bad for my first competition!

Diz and Olivia came to cheer me on and they hung out for a long time watching all the CrossFitters.
Olivia was great and didn't get too sassy. ;)
My Mom came and cheered me on too!
Holly and Steph and their families came to check it out, but just barely missed my heat. :(
I told them they could make it up to me by coming to a class with me at Elevated CrossFit. ;)
We had some great sponsors!
Primitive Fuels, and Ford's Locker (click for links).
And none of this would have been possible without Van and Jenny Hatfield.
So HUGE thanks to them!
I can't wait for next year!
I'd love a podium finish!!
Such good words for #@&$ing heavy...oh, did I mention it's easier to yell than work. Good work ash.
