CrossFit Paragon goes to Regionals Day 1

May 27, 2011   //   by Nate   //   News  //  3 Comments

We are off to an amazing start! After WODs 1 and 2 the team sits in a tie for 5 with North Atlanta and Irving is in 2nd place overall.

WOD 1 Team
Row 750×4
50 Handstand Push-ups
Row 750×4

One person rows at a time. Order on the row must be maintained during handstand push-ups with one athlete working at a time.

Nate
Bex
Krissi
Ribeye

Nate rowed first followed by Bex, Krissi, and Ribeye. Even with Ribeye maintaining a sub 1:40/500m. pace on the rower CF Paragon was one of the last teams to start the Handstand push-ups, but Nate got us off to an incredible start by completing 30 in a row! Bex followed that up with an amazing 20 Handstand push-ups, making us one of the first teams to return to the row!

Overall place WOD 1: 7th place

WOD 2 Team
Thruster Ladder
Women: 105,115,125,135,140,145,150,155,160,165,170,175,180,185
Men: 155,165,175,185,195,205,215,225,235,245,255,265,275,285,295

Athlete gets 20 seconds at each weight with 10 seconds between each weight. They only get one attempt and any deviation from standards means disqualification.

Glissel
George

Glissel started us off with an impressive 135lb. thruster! Not long after Glissel, George took to the arena and put on one hell of a show, finishing with a 255lb thruster!

Overall Score WOD 2: 6th place

Individual WOD 1:
Run 1000m
30 Handstand Push-ups
Row 1000m

Irving set off to a great start, returning from the run near the front of the pack. But really seperated himself with his 30 unbroken handstand push-ups which seemed to go at an uncountable pace. Getting back to the rower first, Irving ran into some trouble with the foot straps and set himself back a few seconds, but still managed to rake in a 4th place finish.

Overall place WOD1: 4th place

Individual WOD2:
Thruster Ladder
Weights and rules are same as team WOD 2.

Irving walked into the arena with the same calm, confidence that carried George to a 265lb. finish. Even though weighing in under 155lbs. Irving was still capable of getting 235lbs. extended out overhead!

Overall place WOD 2: 7th place
