Yeah. I’m not sure they should make it so obvious

Never heard of this Haley Adams in the 16-17 girls division but she has been impressive. First in all 5 events. Chloe Smith goes to the same box as me so I see how ridiculous she is. She won the 14-15 last year; currently 3rd in the 16-17. Adams is destroying the comp. going to assume she’ll be competing with the women in a couple years and contending eventually

If it was they did a shitty job. He finished 11th and is still the overall leader.

Last year and this year she actually qualified as a 16 and 17 year old for regionals and competed. When she didn’t make it, she accepted her teen invitation. She is a beast.

Just had a chance to check the leader board. Had a chance to YouTube some of the events. Fraser looks like he’ll run away with it at this point. Vellner is doing well, and I don’t think you can count Fikowski out either right now.

I also got a little chuckle when I see that Fraser is now claiming 5’7” on his profile when he’s been 5’5-5’6 his whole career.

If Vellner hadn’t thrown a chain in the Criterium he’d be pushing Fraser as well for 1st.

Equipment failure is bullshite.

I just finished watching the events from today. The falls by Frase and Vellner were crazy. Both lucky to not be hurt!
Fraser has a 50pt lead. Going to be hard to catch him.

Hole shite I never realized he was 5’6

But yea trying to be a competitive CrossFit athlete and being over 5’10 isn’t going to work out for most

He caused a wreck that probably caused the chain issue.

I wouldn’t call that equipment failure. What happened to Ohlsen was equipment failure imo.

Chains can come off for several reasons. Could have been equipment error or he could've caused it switching gears. Not trying to blame him, could happen to a lot of people.

Fraser finishes 4th in th Swim, Paddle, Run Event and widened his lead a good bit with Vellner and Hogberg finishing 20+.

It’ll probably be Fraser, Fikowki and Vellner again this year 1,2,3.

Fraser struggled in that event and still finished 9th.

Vellner is just a chain away from pushing Fraser for #1.
