– competition to peak at National Park today
Early yesterday, athletes took to the pool at the National Aquatic Centre, Liliendaal, to commence the second edition of the Kares CrossFit Caribbean Championship.
Athletes, both local and international, were split into three categories and went hard at each other, but it was the international athletes who impressed enough to be at the top of the charts by the end of the first day’s challenges.
Englishman George Dutton finished in a time of 24 minutes, 14 seconds (24:14) ahead of reigning champion Guyanese Dillon Mahadeo (26:02) and Trinidadian Bryant Snaggs (29:35) in the Men’s RX category. The trio proved their superior fitness over the other five athletes in the category who failed to finish their Swim Grace routine within the 30-minute time allocation.
