The Mid Atlantic Regionals for the CrossFit Games will be this weekend at 8001 Sheriff Road Landover, MD 20785 (next to FedEx Field)! It’s an awesome experience watching athletes of that caliber up close and there will be a lot of CrossFit vendors there. I will be judging Friday through Sunday but I believe Mel, Carrie and other athletes from the box are looking at going down Sunday to see the finals. I guarantee the snatch ladder will be the most exciting WOD; last year’s thruster ladder had the entire crowd on its feet! Don’t miss this opportunity to see these athletes up close! See the below photos for the WODs and the layout of the field house.
