ATHLETE OF THE MONTH – August 2017

Eva Thornton is our “Athlete of the Month” for the month of August!

Eva has, to say the least, excelled in CrossFit Competition. Last month she competed at the Reebok CrossFit Games in Madisson Wisconsin (USA) for the 2nd time (last was in 2015). Eva competed in the Masters Ladies 45-49 years division. Coming in at 49 years of age, Eva excelled in the competition, placing 12th in a highly competitive masters ladies field!

The 7 month, 3 stage process started with around 10500 ladies entering this masters ladies division in The Open of the Reebok CrossFit Games. Next the top 200 ladies competed in the Masters Age Group Online Qualifier. The top 20 athletes were then selected to compete at the Reebok CrossFit Games. Lastly these ladies competed in the 4 day CrossFit Games event testing them over a wide variety of events from a biathlon, through to heavy lifting, through to an obstacle course sprint to name but a few of the events. This is a TRUE TEST OF FITNESS and we are super proud of Eva’s achievements!
