Update on the 2012 Open

3/31/2012

 
Open Gym 9 - 11 am

Congratulations to everyone who participated and competed in the 2012 Reebok CrossFit Open!  It was a great 5 weeks at the gym and we had a great time getting everyone involved.  We were genuinely impressed with the effort and the focus over the last 5 weeks.

Jeff has assembled our scores and data into a spreadsheet if you want to see where you finished within the gym, all scores were taken from games.crossfit.com.  There could be a couple errors...

CrossFit NOLA 2012 Open Scores  (Women are on the second tab)

At the start of the open:
There were 2697 men in the South Central Region
There were 1612 women in the South Central Region

At the end of the open there were:
Less than 1800 men were still active
Less than 1080 women were still active

Some notes and firsts:
  • Rachael K successfully completed her first toes to bar just in time for WOD 12.3.  She nearly got 2 rounds!
  • Julie, Hillary, Melissa V, Robin, Margaret V all recorded their first chest to bar pull ups!
  • Aaron H and Julie A. posted the 3rd highest scores in they gym on 12.3 and contributed to the team score during week 3
  • The highest worldwide ranking belongs to Tripp Friedler who came in the night before he had knee surgery to complete workout 12.5.  He finished 340 for masters 50 - 54
  • Gutsy performances on 12.2, with multiple athletes tying or surpassing their snatch PR.  I know of Andrea, Hillary, Eric M, Robin, Karla, Scott Austin 
  • Mike H. got his first muscle up, the day of 12.4, unfortunately was not able to showcase it due to the amount of Wallballs that lay before!
  • post to comments if I missed anything, please share!
If you missed the opportunity to participate in the open, you have another chance if you want to throw your hat in the competition ring.  We will be having a PR challenge starting in 2 weeks, on Saturday 4/14.  Look for sign up details this week, there will be a $30 entry fee with the majority of the fee going to the pot for the champions!

Some Results:
Team CrossFit NOLA finished 11th place out of 150 teams this year, improving from 14th out of 60 teams last year.  We will have the opportunity to send a team to San Antonio at the end of April to compete for a spot in the Games.  

The 2012 team will be represented by Brandon, Brad, Demian, Kelsey, Andrea, and Rae who finished at the top of the board for men and women, respectively.  This will be a strong team that has the potential to fight for a top 3 spot.  The Regional workouts in the past have included more skills, which should fit more to our strengths.

Mollie  and Jeff  will be competing individually and will be vying for a top 3 finish to try and make it to the Finals in CA in July.  

If you are interested making the trip to San Antonio, there are opportunities to volunteer and go behind the scenes, check games.crossfit.com

Thanks for supporting us / hosting the open!

Not sure if corrections are being solicited, but my 12.1 score on the spreadsheet is off (says 81 and it was 109).
