International Women’s Day
Here’s to strong women. May we know them, may we raise them, may we be them, and may we train them, and train with them.
In honour of International Women’s Day, we will be doing the workout Champion again this year. Champion is a workout in honour of Becky Conzelman.
Becky passed away on April 6th, 2019 after suffering a brain aneurysm a week prior to her passing. Becky was an OG CrossFitter, a former Games athlete, a wife, mother, the co-founder of Faith RX, a beloved member of the CrossFit Community and she was a good friend to some of our friends in the CrossFit Community. Some of you would have joined us for a virtual version on Champion in April of 2020. During that time we were sharing virtual classes with 2 affiliates in the US, one being CrossFit Watchtower which is owned by Kevin Ogar. Kevin and Becky were good friends, and Kevin asked us if one of our Saturday WODs could be Champion to honour Becky. Becky was also very good friends with Jenny LaBaw, who we do Move Mountains for each year. I decided to make the most of our virtual class and reached out to Jenny, and asked her to join us, to surprise Kevin, and have other athletes doing Champion with us virtually that also has a personal connection to Becky. We ended up with an incredible group of athletes, many Games Athletes and OG coaches who all came together virtually with us to honour Becky, and share stories about her. It was a very cool experience in 2020.
Today in honour of strong women everywhere, we will take on Champion.
