The European Crossfit Games are taking place in Copenhagen
this weekend. I’ve mentioned it before,
but the goal of the European Games is to find the top three male, top three
female and top three teams in Europe to send to the World Championships held in
California next month. Today was the
first day of competition and it was so inspirational to see such strong athletes
in the arena. I currently train at Crossfit
Butcher’s Lab & Crossfit Butcher’s Garage.
Out of all teams in Europe, Butchers Lab entered the competition this
weekend in sixth place and Butcher’s Garage entered in seventh place. I am crossing my fingers that the events go
well and one of the Butcher’s team takes top three and qualifies for World’s in California. It would be so exciting to get to go visit
Danish friends in the States just a few weeks after I arrive back home!
The group I was sitting with today kept asking me if I was really from the States because I knew
almost everyone that walked by us. I
have done so much traveling this year and have visited eleven crossfit
locations throughout Europe. Getting to
see all the athletes I have met during my travels at this weekend’s event is so
exciting. Every time I turned around,
someone is screaming my name!

On a different note, I will be flying into SFO exactly one
month from today. My flight is out of Hamburg so I just booked my train ticket to Germany the day before my flight. Back to reality....ahhh!
