Hey folks welcome back to a fresh new week to make changes in your health and fitness. The seasons are changing and we are keeping things fresh and fun as always. Let's hit this week hard!
CF Games Open WOD:
Well folks, the open has finally come to an end. After 5 weeks of tough workouts and hard work, the results are in. CrossFit Long Island has finished 13th overall out of an initial 170 teams in the very tough Northeast Region. As some of you may have heard, the CFLI team of competitors decided this week that we are all going to put our individual goals aside for this year's competition and join forces to compete as an official Team in the Team Competition.
This is something we are very excited about and we plan on leaving it all out there to see what we got against the big guns. Only the top 3 teams in the region qualify to go to the CF Games World Finals in July, but you never know. We are not the favorites to reach the podium by any means, but we have a strong, well rounded team. With A LOT of hard work, some extra skill practice, and maybe even a little luck, you could see us battling it out with the best down to the last minute. We are about as likely to make the podium as the Giants were to win the Super Bowl this year. That didn't seem to bother them though did it? Everything changes once the competition starts, it's like the playoffs. The Open is just a thing of the past now, it's time to see how we do when it counts.
The date for Regionals is May 25-27th, at Reebok World Headquarters in Canton, Massachusetts. We are kicking the door down and bursting in guns-a-blazin! All are welcome to come cheer us on!
Athletes:
We will be having a mandatory meeting on Wednesday night at 8:30pm for all those interested in competing on the team, or participating in team training sessions. In order to be eligible for either of these, you must have completed and submitted a valid score for all 5 Open WODs. You must also be ready to work the hardest you have ever worked in your life and be willing to make this your number 1 priority from now until competition time. Come to the meeting for full details.
