it was a valiant effort on behalf of both chris & jason this weekend at the regionals. at the time of this post, the final results have yet to be posted on the regional website. they were however, able to announce the 7 individuals that will go on to represent the dirty south at the 3rd annual CrossFit Games. unfortunately, we aren't one of them.
it was a privilege to have fought alongside each and every participant this weekend. there were some awesome displays of athleticism and we were both humbled and inspired to say the least. the dirty south will be sending 7 top quality performers and in the truest sense of the word - CROSSFITTERS.
congrats to jared 'doos' davis from CrossFit SouthSide for scoring high enough to be chosen as an alternate for the Games.

a HUGE thanks to everyone that showed us their support throughout the weekend, especially our CFJAX members. it made us realize that we are a family and i want every single of one of you to know that it meant the world to us. we can not thank you enough!
ReplyDeletethanks also to our 'extended' members who wished us the best of luck. rob-ger, maria, aaron, darrell, fitness fabolous - THANK YOU.
we completed 4 tough wods in 2 days...needless to say, we're beat lol.
Respect!!! You guys kick *ss!
ReplyDeleteI salute the 2 of you for having the nerve to put yourselves to such a HUGE test. You guys are HEROES in my book. Thanks for your efforts & your inspiration. MASH ON!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to both of you on your amazing efforts. You guys were an inspiration to watch and root for. I am friends with two of your members (Steve & Aaron) and have been crossfitting since September of 08. Steve and I get together and do workouts at the fire station when we can, and otherwise he is at your gym and I have been crafting my own home version since driving to jax is a bit of a stretch on my schedule. Just to see you guys (and all the other competitors) go at it was truly humbling, educational and motivating. I hope to join all of you at CFJAX for a workout some day in the near future. Again, CONGRATULATIONS and Thanks for the inspiration and motivation to crossfit on even harder...
ReplyDeleteAmazing job you guys!
ReplyDeleteEpic weekend. I'm proud of you guys, and thankful for the fraternity.
ReplyDeleteMuch respect.
