CrossFit Games 2011: Day 3

Day 3 is exciting and very special in the CrossFit world.  Crowd favorites are cheered and champions are crowned.  We have our own set of celebrity athletes that most of the world doesn't even know about...yet.  I am fortunate enough to be coached by some of the best, so I'll start this post with a recap of the team I like to root for the most, CrossFit Fort Vancouver, "my" Team Green!






As for the individual athletes, they were nothing short of amazing this year.  The final day of the competition tested their strength and determination all at once.  The biggest names in CrossFit like "Iceland Annie" Thorisdottir, Rich Frohning, Navy Seal Josh Bridges, Jason Khalipa, Rebecca Voight, Annie Sakamoto, Kristin Clever, Sam Briggs, Ben Smith, Chris Spealer and Graham Holmberg (to name a few) put on a display of class and athleticism that I won't soon forget.  I was most excited to meet the founder of CrossFit, Greg Glassman, himself.  I hope you enjoy this final entry of my 2011 Games portfolio!
