Alaskan Bar-Belles Women’s Competition

Alright y’all!  I’m so stoked to be able to start what I hope will be an incredible annual tradition.  

The time has come to unveil the details for the upcoming Women’s Teams of Two Competition at Wayfinder Fitness & Nutrition on Saturday, 10/9.  A portion of the proceeds from this event will be used to help breast cancer survivor, Michelle Chester and her husband Anthony Chester start their own CrossFit Affiliate outside of Austin, Texas.  So, the general theme for the event will be PINK!

This event will have a maximum of 12 teams in each: Scaled, Intermediate, and RX.  There will not be age group divisions (look for Masters and Teens age groups next year).  Registration ends 9/10 and the cost is $130 per team. 

After registration, you will receive an e-mail to determine wether you want a tank top or t-shirt.  Tank tops will be the Bella and Canvas Racerback Crop.  The T-shirt will be the Bella and Canvas Tri-Blend T-Shirt.  Both Tank and Tee will be custom tie-dyed white and neon pink.  

Your event staff will be comprised of men from the Wayfinder Fitness & Nutrition community who will serve through event set-up, judging, and athlete support.  Judges will have completed the online judges course from CrossFit.  There will be four events, all of which will be released prior to the competition. 

Movement standard for divisions…. These are general guidelines and don’t include every single movement from the competition.  When workouts are released, division standards will also be released so feel free to hit me up with clarifying questions when those come out.

Prize packages will be legit! We’re talking prizes to another level, with some cool door prizes as well.  There will also be an athlete chosen for a special “Spirit of the Games” Award.  This athlete will be chosen by event staff and will be someone who has been an example throughout the competition of sportsmanship, kindness, and grace under competitive pressure.
