This past Saturday Kevin Kittredge and Ron Marchessault took on some of the northeast’s fittest over 40 at the Master’s Competition hosted by CrossFit New England. Knowing the two of them, I’m sure they gave a full effort, and left absolutely everything they had on the paved driveway and rubber mats out in Natick. Both hit numbers they wanted in the snatch + 3 overhead squat, and max rep thruster events (Ron with 130# and 28 reps, Kevin with 115# and 22 reps) en route to finishes in just about the dead middle of their respective divisions. Through conversations in person, and via e-mail, both seemed happy with their performances, but not satisfied, hungry for their next opportunities to compete. I’m very proud of both of them for taking on this challenge, throwing down with some serious competition, and holding their own.
Strength:
Front Squat 3-3-3-3-3
WOD:
AMRAP 9:
75 Overhead Walking Lunge Steps (45#/35#)
