North East Regionals Days 2 & 3

Wow, so Regionals are over, and, Champlain Valley CrossFit finished 3rd place to secure a trip to the CrossFit Games. It was an amazing weekend with up and downs, laughter and seriousness, and maybe a little bit of stress, but the team went in and did what they had to to move on to the big show. Congratulations guys. WOD #3We knew this would be a good workout for the team and Dani and Del did exactly what they needed to. They absolutely crushed the workout and blew away the time we had done in practice. Only 1 second behind the previous fastest time in the world, and that’s with Del doing an extra Snatch on his first and second round and a burpee. 3rd fastest in the world guys, 2nd for the event. Check the video below, excuse the language. WOD #4This…

North East Regionals Day #1

Day 1 of Regionals is in the books. We are all back at the apartment we rented in Boston, eating, and cleaning and resting up for another big day tomorrow. I couldn’t be more proud of how everyone did, and couldn’t be more lucky to be able to work, train, and coach with these amazing people. As of right now we sit tied for 3rd place. 1st place sits with 7 points, at 2nd place there are 3 teams tied with 10 points, and in 3rd place there is CVCF and another team tied with 13 points. Workout #1, probably one of the hardest workouts for our team went great. Despite a few no reps, everyone kept their composure, all 4 members hammered through the deadlifts, Dani covered all 40 HSPU’s with Nate doing almost as many, and everyone pushed hard right to the end, which…
