Men’s Event 5 in the East taught us a lot.
The women’s leaderboard in the East at the end of Day 2 is at a turning point. With Katrin’s lead over Carol-Ann Reason Thibault shrunken down to only two points and Michele Letendre’s competitive weekend up in the air due to quad cramps during Event 5, the competition is tighter and crazier than ever leading into Day 3.
Remember when Mat Fraser said he feels like Day 2 will be better suited to his strengths than Day 1? Well, he’s definitely not a liar.
The couple of couplets shook a couple of competitors on Day 2 in the East.
Going into the final event of Day 2, the team competition in the East was incredibly tight with CrossFit Parallax and JaktRX Red leading the pack with 460 points each and Team Dynamix just five points behind them.
