Each year Crossfit HQ begins the search for the athletes that will compete in the Crossfit Games beginning with the Crossfit Open.  It is 5 weeks of WOD's that will test your athleticism, they will make you push harder and try things that you may not have tried before.  This year we decided to keep it in our house, CFL.  We competed with each other instead of world wide.  We had more people participate in the open than I have seen it quite some time.  You all worked so hard.  You have so much heart and spirit. You have not forgotten what Crossfit was founded on, community! We didn't change any of the WOD's, you all competed performing the same WOD's that crossfitters across the world were performing.  There were some stand out participants this year that competed with so much moxie, I would like to give a big shout out to Brandon "B" Sochacki, you have gotten your pull-ups and are hitting double unders like you have been doing them for years.  Kimmie Delaney, you competed harder and with so much heart, you earned your place at the top of the Scaled leaderboard! CFL could not be prouder of it's community, you are all family.  Congratulations to the winners Jarod Karanian and Wendy Gray you both worked hard and it shows!

In February Legitimus showed their support by wearing pink and completing a workout to honor a close friend in her fight!  The CFL family is an amazing supportive family!
