SoCal Sectionals

 

On March 13th - 14th, over 300 athletes and several thousand spectators will be flocking to Drake Stadium at UCLA to be a part of the first ever SoCal Sectional Qualifier. Many of California's best CrossFit athletes will be battling it out over multiple workouts to earn one of the few privileged spots into the SouthWest Regionals.

CrossFit Ventura will be well represented at this event by the power house Matt Major, the lightening fast Jaala Thibault, the amazingly strong Mindith Rahmat, and the unbelievable Craig Wobig. Competing in an event of this magnitude takes a lot of courage and we should applaud these four for taking the plunge! They will do great!

If you are interested in attending and supporting these athletes, you can purchase a spectator ticket for this historical weekend here. If you want to get in for free, you can also volunteer by emailing Jennifer Stokes at jennifer@crossfitla.com

Mitch must hate Major or something: insult by omission.

Any way, good luck Major, you freaking power house! And Craig is unbelievable.

Major, are we making the "Effing Craig!" shirts?

[Kat B]

I must reinforce that I HATE burpees!

Been a long time since I've bench pressed and was a little awkward with the positioning, but felt really good.

[Marthab]
