Inside "The Barn" - Athletes only area
Summary below of what is was like inside the barn - Written by 2nd place winner and new pal Tommy Hackenbruck:
"This should be known about the competitors at the event. In the compound between events I saw athletes sharing food, sunscreen, giving advice on how to attack workouts, helping warm-up, giving encouragement, and congratulating one another. Before my sandbag sprint event Matt Chan came back from his heat and gave me some great advice on how to attack it. Guys were helping Mikko with his double unders before the final chipper because he sucked at them. Coach Glassman taught the Iceland girl how to do a muscle up before the final WOD. Everyone there wanted to win, but they also wanted their competitors to do their best as well. I truly believe that the Spirit of CrossFit is evident by what goes on behind the scenes, and that is what the games are about."
