CrossFit Mallow








Hey Everyone

I bet you are wondering where the WOD is for today ????

Well for the next couple of weeks you will only know the Strength/ Skill part of the day.
CrossFit is also about expecting the unexpected.
So for the next two weeks you will not know the workout until you arrive for your class.

CrossFit Community

We had a CFWD road trip to Mallow this weekend. John Kavanagh and Sean Myers did CFWD so proud this weekend. John rocked the bench press and after round 2 was in the top 8 men. Sean was an absolute pleasure to watch in workout 3 ..he demolished the snatch and Hand Stand Push up WOD.
So proud of both of you guys. You gave it everything you had in every single WOD and it brought a tear to my eye ( happy tears) watching you compete. I'm looking forward to training you for the next competition. When I competed at MM2 it was just me from CFWD and this time we had three athletes. Wonder what MM4 will have in store and how many athletes from CFWD will venture down to the fabulous Mallow Box .
Thanks to Darryl Jones for driving down to support and take photos :) you are a star. Look forward to having you in front of the camera next time Darryl.
Scot and Ben lost their voice they were cheering so much for everyone . You were amazing :). 


We all looked inside our soul for the last workout

30 Toes to bar
30 Kettlebell Swings - 24 Female / 32 men
30 Push Press - 65lb/95lb
30 wall balls
30 Pull ups
30 Burpee Box Jumps

The support of all the affiliates coming together to cheer eachother on was over whelming. The CrossFit community is one of the reasons I fell in love with CrossFit.
The atmostphere at CrossFit Mallow on saturday was nothing like I have seen at ANY other CrossFit Competition. Athletes finishing a workout and staying to cheer on their competitor. You would not see this in anyother sport.

In my opinion every CrossFitter should enter a competition for the amazing ( and a little scary) experience or even just come down and soak up the atmosphere. I will be expecting alot more of you guys down the next time.


I LOVE THIS SPORT !!!
