Cheyne, Elyse, Grant, John, Josh, Kimo and Sabrina….you folks were awesome! I loved watching you! It was so exciting, inspiring and heart-warming to watch you folks work so hard, individually and as a team. I kept going back to the archive to watch it over and over again. I am inspired to work harder, be stronger and be faster. I am honored, blessed and humbled to be working out with exceptional athletes and coaches.
Congrats to Eylse!!
Great job team Hardass!!
That was so fun and exciting being at the regionals. The best part was doing the wods with my team. It didn't matter what place we were in, I had a blast because we worked so well as a team. Thanks everyone for the encouragement to do the competition! Elyse was also amazing to watch. Congratulations for making it Elyse! You are pretty freaking awesome!
Congratulations to Elyse and team Hardass! You make all of us proud and inspire us to work harder because we've all seen you work hard and suffer, too. The regionals put the results on display for the crossfit world to see. Elyse came in 3rd and was interviewed and team Hardass was interviewed after the last WOD. Way to represent! Clearly HAF has the trifecta of quality people who put in quality training under quality leadership. Special thanx to Cheyne and Sabrina who had to do all 3 team WODs! Whew!
