CrossFit Reykjavik vs. CrossFit Hendersonville
CrossFit Reykjavik competed as a team for the first time in front of an audience at this event. The team was made up of Annie Thorisdottir, Lauren Fisher, Khan Porter, and Tola Moreakinyo. They are a serious team of competitors that will probably set the bar for the rest of the competition for the remainder of the 2022 season.
CrossFit Hendersonville is not quite at the professional level as Team Reykjavik, but they are a massive community of CrossFitters with over 300 members currently. Alexis Morgan, Zac Morgan, Lindsey McDuffie, and Logan Martin got the chance to represent the community at this 22.3 Open Workout. They will attempt to beat their opponents and shock the CrossFit community.
Even though Team Reykjavik gave Team Hendersonville a 4 and a half minute head start, you could tell pretty early on who would come out on top. Team Reykjavik closed the gap quickly and was the only team to complete the event.
The Results:
The time cap for them was 22:03 minutes.
Reykjavik: 16:36 minutes
Hendersonville: 851 reps (didn’t complete the workout)
