What can I say. These two poured their hearts outs on some seriously painful WODs!
The First WOD was the Thruster - Pull-up. The chest to bar standard was such a difficult task for many of the compeditors. The Trainers were strict and rightly so. There would be no doubts about the best of the best. Tanya won her heat and set herself up for a 3rd place overall for that flight. Josh had a rough go with Pull-up standard and lost around 8 hard earned reps. His time reflected the double work on a lot of that.
The second WOD was the Deadlift Burpee. With some seriously torn up hands, Tanya showed what it is like to compete like a champ. Zero breaks and zero left undone. She posted a stellar time and was the second girl for those who had done the 2 wods she completed (4:10). Josh went beast on a heavy workout and went straight through the workout with a stout time (3:24). Both represented well for the 2nd WOD.
The last WOD for the two was the hill run. Imagine a ski mountain in the summer time. Tanya provided the lift with a time of 4:35. This was the 2nd fastest time for all the girls who completed the WOD to that point. Josh took a spot in the back of the pack and proceeded to pass everyone in front of him and then put about 30 seconds on the nearest competitor. He finished with a blazing time of (3:42). So much for not liking to run.
Tomorow's WOD is 30 clean and Jerks for time. More to come. Enjoy the pictures.

Fantastic Job Wagners!! One day left, stay in the fight!
When you get back the first couple of beer are on me! I will also throw in a couple ice bags for you hands and muscles!
Great work Coach/Photographer F, Keep the two of them in the game and working hard. Good Luck in day two, 30 reps no problem!!
WOW...you guys have really shown some amazing things out there. The qualities you guys have on display during this comp are very inspirational. I already respected all 3 of you before, but now...through the roof. Keep up the hard work, the finish line is in plain sight, sprint through it!
On a side note, Mike, could you give Gillian Mounsey my number. Actually, make sure she likes kids before you do that! She will end in second since Tanya will be the queen of the games, but thats fine by me =0)
OMG, this is killing me.....Has anyone heard anything? Any phonecalls placed with any insight into whats happening?
Amazing Queen Tanya finished second Overall. Caity Matter was first by 10 seconds and Gillian came in 3rd 28 seconds behind Tanya.
Josh came in 46th out of 200 - impressive!!
WOW, AWESOME, Inspiring.....the list of adjectives goes on.
Crossfit hasn't posted the documents yet. Not sure why. But I'm a computer geek and I found the results document (I didn't do anything illegal)
WOW...that 30 clean and jerks really caused alot of movement in the top of the standings (especially with the guys). Huge deficits where overcome. I cant even comprehend that kind of output.
What you guys accomplished out there is out of this world, way to go and cant wait to have you guys back with us.
Congrats!!!!
Way to go Wagner Team - you two are AWESOME!! So proud of you both - I can't imagine your excitement. WOW - what an accomplishment!! We will be awaiting your arrival in PA. I miss you guys:)
