CrossFit Regional Events

The CrossFit Open is over and 60 competitors in each region (with the exception of the Masters Divisions) have earned a spot at each of their prospective Regional Competitions held all over the world. My friend Elyse Umeda, owner of CrossFit808 in Honolulu, is a female competitor to watch from Hawaii. She took #2 in the CrossFit Open for Northern California Region this year.

The events are the same for each regional competition, and they are heavy duty.

We performed Regional Event #4, which was a MONSTER, at our box during this Sundays Oly Club (in addition to our max C & J and max Snatch), and we also performed this wod on Monday during all classes. It is important for our box to stay connected to what's happening in the bigger community of CrossFit worldwide, even if we are not at regionals, we can still stay connected from our little BIG island!
