On Saturday, Dani and Kristi competed in a strongman based CrossFit woman’s only competition down in Hartford, Connecticut at CrossFit Relentless. While there is always competition in the gym, neither of them had been to a structured competition with a bunch of other CrossFitting women before. I’m super proud and psyched to say that they both did an amazing job. Kristi charged hard as she always does winning the 3rd of 4 events by gritting her teeth and never letting go of the keg as she lifted it from ground to shoulder 53 times, and finishing 11th overall. Dani won not 1, not 2, but 3 of the 4 events, putting her in 1st place overall for the day and putting the ladies of Champlain Valley CrossFit on the top spot in every event. The event had almost 70 ladies ranging from firebreathers like Dani and Kristi to those who were new to CrossFit and just looking to have fun. With that said I encourage you all to look into doing a competition here and there, because they are just that, FUN!
