This past weekend, the London-based fitness competition ‘Strength in Depth’ hosted the European regional CrossFit Games semifinal. A jam-packed weekend full of jerks cleans and snatches saw 30 male, 30 female and 30 teams of elite athletes compete for just 15 spots at the finals in the Madison, USA later this summer.
They included numerous athletes from the UK such as MyProtein ambassador Zack George and previous CrossFit games competitors, Samantha Briggs and Elliott Simmonds. Unfortunately, whilst they narrowly missed out on the top 5 finish which they would have required to secure a place at the games, all 3 finished in the top half of the pack, placing 13th, 7th and 12th, respectively.
What’s more, they certainly led the field when it came to their adoring fans’ support!
