This is a picture of my score card from the Regional qualifier for the CrossFit Games in 2009. This was the first time we sent athletes to a competition to compete in the brand new sport of Fitness. There were 3 men and 3 women from our gym that went up to Orange County that weekend. Myself, Newman and Diana are the only ones still a part of the CFEC family from that original crew. I was 49 years old at the time and I was competing against the kids. I was put in my place that weekend. We had no idea that the CrossFit Games would go on to grow in to the phenomenon that we witness today.
