Posted July 12, 2012 by Ryan Savard in Blog

The 2012 CrossFit Games kicked off yesterday with a crazy triathlon event that came out of nowhere. The athletes have a rest day today but then go on to compete Friday-Sunday. The streaming of the Games is live on the website (wwww.games.crossfit.com) but you can also check out the action at night on ESPN3 where it is edited and commentary is added. We will be heading over to Ben and Emily’s house this Friday evening after the last class to view Friday’s Games events. They will be supplying the burgers but feel free to bring anything else you would like to munch on or drink. The show starts at 7:15pm!
