2011 WODstar Christmas Break competition

Ok, so this wasn't really the championship, but this litte write up makes it seem like one:

The 2011 WODstar Christmas Break Champions are Tim Gallion and Nathan Peters. They clipped the runner up team of William Kent Thomas and Jason Sutfin 234-231 in a down-to-the-wire championship event. Gallon and Peters took a commanding 155-144 lead into halftime and held off a late surge by Thomas and Sutfin to hold on for the title.

The event, which consisted of sandbag clean & jerks, prowler pushes, tire flips, sandbag carries, atlas stone carries, and db hang power snatches, was the first of its kind and is sure to become an annual event.

Tim Gallion was voted MVP, while Thomas and Peters were voted to the all-tournament team.

*********************************

2 man team WOD. We partnered up with a member of the opposing team and worked for reps (points) while the opponent dead the heavy work until complete, then we switched places and did it again. 2x Prowler push while the other guy did AMRAP sandbag clean and jerk, 4x sandbag carry while the other guy did tire flips, 2x atlas stone carry while the other guy did db hang power snatch.

We did 4 rounds...we cut the rounds in half for the final two (1x prowler, 2x sandbag, 1x atlas stone). The prowler push was horrible! Overall, a nice WOD.
