This past Saturday, Carly competed in the North Carolina Weightlifting Championships. She went 2/6 and hit 53 kg (116 lbs) in the snatch and 70 kg (154 lbs) in the C&J for a 123 kg total. Even though she was hoping for some higher numbers since these were a bit lower than her training maxes, she maintained a positive attitude and kept her focus to hit successful lifts. She ended the day in 2nd place in her weight class! Which is to say we have a North Carolina State runner-up on our hands!
Kris headed to Charleston, South Carolina this weekend to compete in a very well respected competition called Integrity’s Revenge at CrossFit Integrity. Some of you might remember that Kris went to this competition as part of a 2-person team last year and got 2nd place. This year, she went in as an individual and across 3 days of competition, took 1st place in the female RX division. She led the leaderboard for the majority of the weekend, but the final scoring resulted in a “Winner Take All” situation going into the final workout (1st, 2nd, 3rd were all within 4 points of each other). Kris got her gameface on and rose to the pressure, winning the final WOD to secure her spot atop the leaderboard.
Congratulations to both Carly and Kris! All your hard work is showing!
