"It's like we saw the victory lap on the first day of competition."
Mayhem blew through Team Murph with a time of 55:18:05 for the event win. While they didn't come in first off the run, or even first off the pull-ups, they made up ground quickly. They passed up leaders on the worm squats and had the streets to themselves for most of the final run. While other teams struggled with communication and missed reps, Mayhem managed to handle themselves well amidst the chaos. Their consistent and smooth transitions on the litter carry also undoubtedly played into their event win.
Behind Mayhem, 12 Labours and Dynamix finish second and third respectively. 12 Labours had been trading off the lead with Mayhem, however their longer breaks on the worm squats gave Mayhem the opportunity to pull forward.
Fan favorites, CrossFit Invictus, finish in 14th.
Reebok CrossFit East Woodbridge team member, Chris Cristini, rolled his ankle on the run and had to be helped back into the stadium. The team still managed to finish and took 39th in the event.
"I would say that opening carry...and the whole thing. Other than that it was easy." - Rich Froning (on the worst part of Team Murph)
